SPEAKER. AUTHOR. COACH.
I am Chaste’y, pronounced Cha-Stay, and my story is one of resilience, faith, and unwavering determination. Raised in poverty in a single-parent home in South Carolina during the early 80s, I faced significant challenges, including the heartbreaking loss of both parents at an early age. Yet, even in the darkest moments, I found strength in my faith and the support of my church family, which became my guiding light.
At just 16, I learned to navigate life independently, defying the odds to become a first-generation college graduate. My journey wasn’t easy, but it was through these trials that I discovered the transformative power of faith. This deep, unwavering belief in God not only helped me survive but empowered me to thrive, leading me to launch and sustain multiple successful ventures.
Today, as "The Vocal Encourager," I draw from my own experiences of overcoming adversity to inspire and guide others. I believe that each of us has a unique, God-given blueprint—a divine plan for our lives. My mission as a Pastor and Mentor is to help individuals navigate and build upon this blueprint, ensuring that they have the guidance and support needed to complete their assignments and fulfill their God-given destiny.
Alongside my husband, Bishop Anthony Gibson, I proudly serve as the First Lady and Executive Pastor of Administration at Grace Cathedral Ministries in Sumter, South Carolina. Our ministry journey began in 2000, and over the past 24 years, we have been blessed to pioneer and grow together in faith and service.
As devoted parents to our sons, Collin Anthony and Corbin Charles, our family is deeply rooted in our commitment to nurturing the next generation. In my role as the National Youth Director for Grace Cathedral Christian Fellowship, I extend this dedication, passionately guiding and empowering young people to discover their own paths in faith.
Where Faith Ignites Purpose
You can join me on Faith Fridays with Friends™, a live social media series where I, alongside special guests, explore a chosen word each week to empower and enrich the faith walk of my audience. I also host an annual 4-Day Faith Walk Conference each year in October.
In my newest endeavors, I serve as the CEO and Founder of The Vocal Encourager Coaching, as a professional coach certified in September 2023 from Dream Releaser Coaching. Here, I collaborate with individuals to awaken destiny on purpose, seamlessly aligning with my role as the CEO and Founder of Faith Builders Network.
As the founder of Faith Builders Network, I am blessed to coach thought leaders, ministry gifts, authors, entrepreneurs, and podcasters to discover their purpose and craft their God-given blueprint, fostering a path to fulfillment and divine destiny.
Renowned as "The Vocal Encourager," I am most passionate about igniting a transformative journey for individuals to shape their purpose and God-given blueprint, fostering a path to fulfillment and divine destiny. I take joy in awakening Destiny on Purpose in the lives I touch, whether individually or in a group setting.
