in the body of Christ. Terrence’s vision with the Voice of One is to reach every segment of the multi-denominational and
multicultural church. His motto is, everyone has a story and every church
has a story. The magazine is contributed to by various Christian writers
and ministers. It also showcases a growing section ministering to youth.
The paper is part of
his life calling and ministry, which he received in 1980. He is also an
assistant pastor at Family Life Christian Fellowship in Turnersville New
Jersey. He is a father of four and young grandfather of four. He
and his wife of 27 years, Linda, and their two youngest children reside in

won more than 30 national awards for writing, design, and production
excellence. Experienced in both magazine and book publishing, she has been

Editorial Needs:
General Information: Feature
stories should be powerful, dramatic, inspiring, role-model stories that
teach by example, rather than “here’s what to do and how to do it.”
Stories may be heart-touching, funny, adventurous, compelling—but all will
be a “good read.” Stylistically, most features will be more Reader’s
Digest or Guidepost. They will inform while entertaining. All
stories should be positive, upbeat, and inspirational. They should
encourage readers to live life to the fullest and finish well according to
biblical principles. Human interest stories should demonstrate lifestyles
and experiences that will encourage and show readers how they can make
this second half of their lives rich, full of purpose, and significance.
