Gimel Rogers, Psy.D., ABPP is a licensed psychologist and is Board Certified in Clinical Psychology from the American Board of Professional Psychology. With over 10 years of clinical, professional speaking, and training experience she is the owner of F.I.R.E. Igniting Lives, LLC and founder of One Temple Fitness. She earned her doctorate from Pepperdine University and has provided trauma-focused care with clients from the Children of the Night Program, the Ventura Youth Correctional Facility, FCI Terminal Island, and community programs serving survivors of intimate partner violence. She is an expert witness and assists clients who are involved in criminal, family, and civil cases involving a broad range of forensic issues. She is Faculty and the Associate Director of the Online MAP/MACLP Programs at Pepperdine University. Therapeutically, Dr. Rogers presently works with survivors who are recovering from emotional, physical, and sexual abuse as well as persons coping with life’s stressors.

She utilizes an array of therapeutic interventions with an emphasis on cognitive-behavioral therapy. She has published in the areas of culture, coping, spirituality, and trauma. Her inaugural book is the “21-Day Relationship Healing Devotional and Journal” a poetry-based devotional that promotes restoration through reflection. She is the content developer of the Power and Control Wheel of Historical Trauma.

The Reverend Doctor Agnes M. Lover is a native of Montgomery, Alabama. She enthusiastically serves as Lead Pastor at Saint Paul African Methodist Episcopal Church in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks Home Church, and is committed to passionate worship, community-focused ministry and the anointed preaching of God's Holy Word.

Committed to life-long learning, Dr. Lover received the Doctor of Ministry from United Theological Seminary. Her doctoral project, “From Preying to Praying: Exposing the Effects of Spiritual Abuse in the Church,” establishes a psycho-ecclesial model to equip church leadership with the necessary knowledge concerning spiritual abuse and utilizes a biblical behavioral model to illustrate how church leadership should implement spiritual authority.

She received the Master of Divinity from Candler School of Theology, the Master of Business Administration from St. Peters College, the Master of Science in Computer Science from Stevens Institute of Technology and the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics & Computer Science from Xavier University.

Beyond the local pulpit, Pastor Agnes also compassionately serves in several capacities. She serves as Alabama River Region Conference Chair of Ministry Study, Conference Trustee, Chair of Finance Committee, and past annual conference secretary. In a five-year period, awarded over $60,000 in scholarship as the Episcopal District Christian Debutante Master Commissioner.

Pastor Agnes secured funding and established Haven, at Ward Chapel AME Church - Prattville, a ministry that provides advocacy and professional counseling to victims of sexual assault; and ST. PAUL AME CHURCH ROSA PARKS FOUNDATION, INC, a non-profit to continue the legacy of Rosa Parks, Johnny and Arlam Carr, and espouse acts of Civil and Human Rights locally and globally. In addition, she made significant plant improvement in all four pastoral assignments and eliminated debt and burned the mortgage of one. Prior to pastoring full time, she served at Turner Chapel Marietta, GA as worship pastor, discipleship and fellowship purpose leader.

Prior to serving in ministry full time, she pursued a corporate career that extensively evolved around 24 years of telecommunication experience combined in systems engineering, project management, sales and marketing.

Spirit-led and Sprit-driven, Pastor Agnes is a proponent that strength is found within family—a bond that is strengthened every day. Dr. Lover is the extremely proud mother of two children, son, Kevion (Jillian) Rogers and daughter, Rev. Dr. Gimel Rogers; and grandmother of Kimberly and Kyle Rogers. She is the daughter of Rosa Smith Lover-Patterson and the late William Bernard Lover, II.
