P.A.
You are not wrong.
Steve's parents, Roy and Ilene, are still members of COGOP in Russell Springs Ky.
Steve grew up in Nobelsville Indiana where the family attended COGOP.

I saw a documentary about the life of Ray Charles. it showed hom standing in front of the building which housed a tavern where he began his music career as a kid. The building is now a church, and the sign said Church of God of Prophecy.

Steve Chapman from Dogwood, and Steve and Annie Chapman, grew up as the son of a CoGoP pastor in , I believe, Virginia. He was a major influence in the beginnings of Contemporary Chritian Music.

I met Steve when he ws stationed at Millington Air Force base just outside of Memphis. He attended Whitehaven from time to time and the people HATED his Folk style of Music. Of course when he started getting well known they bragged about how he was "part of us". lol
