BIOGRAPHY

A Life of Faithful Service

Apostle William E. Nash Jr. is a devoted husband, loving father, pastor, apostolic leader, author, entrepreneur, and transformational speaker whose life and ministry have impacted countless lives through faith, leadership, and service. Married to his beloved wife, Pearlie Nash, for over 26 years, together they have built a strong foundation of faith, family, and commitment. They are the proud parents of seven beautiful children and have dedicated their lives to raising a family that honors God.

Born and raised in East Texas, Apostle Nash has spent more than 27 years faithfully serving in ministry, preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ with passion, conviction, and apostolic authority. In February 2002, he and his wife founded The House of Refuge Apostolic Ministries in Center, Texas, a ministry committed to restoring lives, strengthening families, developing leaders, and equipping believers to fulfill their God-given purpose.

The House of Refuge Apostolic Ministries is firmly rooted in Apostolic doctrine, believing in the absolute Oneness of God as revealed in Scripture and the biblical plan of salvation. Apostle Nash passionately teaches that there is one God who has revealed Himself as Father in creation, Son in redemption, and Holy Ghost in regeneration. He also upholds and teaches water baptism in the name of Jesus Christ according to Acts 2:38 and the infilling of the Holy Ghost as experienced by the early church.

Recognized for his leadership, spiritual insight, and unwavering dedication to the Kingdom of God, Apostle Nash has been consecrated as both a Bishop and an Apostle. His ministry is marked by powerful preaching, practical teaching, prophetic insight, and a deep commitment to discipleship. Throughout the years, he has mentored pastors, ministers, and emerging leaders, helping them develop spiritually, personally, and professionally.

As a respected conference speaker and teacher, Apostle Nash ministers with a unique blend of wisdom, transparency, and authenticity. His messages challenge believers to grow deeper in their relationship with God while empowering them to walk boldly in their divine calling. His passion for leadership development, family restoration, and spiritual growth has made him a sought-after voice within churches, leadership gatherings, and ministry conferences.

In addition to his pastoral and apostolic responsibilities, Apostle Nash is an accomplished author whose writings inspire healing, hope, and transformation. His book, The Day That Changed My Life Forever, offers a deeply personal and powerful account of loss, grief, faith, and restoration, providing encouragement to individuals and families navigating life’s most difficult seasons. Through his transparency and testimony, he reminds readers that even in moments of profound pain, God’s grace remains sufficient.

Apostle Nash is also a businessman, mentor, and community leader who believes ministry extends beyond the four walls of the church. Whether through preaching, teaching, leadership development, counseling, or community outreach, he remains committed to helping people discover purpose, maximize their potential, and become who God has called them to be.

Known for his compassion, integrity, wisdom, and servant leadership, Apostle William E. Nash Jr. continues to inspire and impact lives across generations. His mission is to lead people into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ, equip believers for effective Kingdom service, and leave a lasting legacy of faith, leadership, and transformation for generations to come.

My life’s mission is to restore the broken, strengthen the believer, equip the leader, and point people to the life-changing power of Jesus Christ. We preach one God, one faith, one baptism, and one message that still has the power to transform lives.
