Apostle McNutt received Christ at the tender age of three years old after having a fiery encounter with the Lord. He awakened out of sleep yelling, “I’m Burning… Please Put It Out;” while running through the house. When his parents caught him and calmed him down to see what was wrong, he told them of a dream he had where God told him He was setting him on fire and he wanted him to go tell the World to Get Right or Get Left.

 

Apostle McNutt’s parents took him to their pastor, Rev. Henry Youngblood who confirmed his call into the ministry and at the age of five years old, Apostle McNutt preached his first sermon entitled, “Turn or You Gone Burn!” at Old Time Holiness True Faith Apostolic Temple Church.

She was his biggest supporter until her untimely death in Afghanistan when she was shot by the Tallaban because she ducked when she should have weaved. After the death of Alma Sue, Apostle McNutt has decided not to marry again unless the Lord tells him to do so because the pain of loss is just to great.
