Raised on the streets of New Orleans, Manley Miller became a writer for an entertainment magazine at the age of fourteen. At sixteen, he accidentally stopped a robbery at a grocery store and was immediately given the job of assistant manager. At nineteen, Jesus found him and made him the janitor at Celebration Church. At 20, Manley was given a list of names of young people between the ages of 18 and 24 who were not attending church anywhere. Manley started a young adults Bible study from this list and within 2 months it had grown to 60 people. At 34, Manley was asked to start a new congregation for Celebration Church in Kenner. The congregation has seen over 180 people baptized in the past two years. Along the way he met his wife Dana in church and they have 4 beautiful children who all look like her (Thank God).
