Brother Dr. Jameel O. Robinson

“Those He calls, He fully equips”

Brother Dr. Jameel O. Robinson is a native of Jackson, Mississippi, born and raised. He obeyed the gospel of Jesus Christ in 1995 at the North Flora Church of Christ in Flora, Mississippi. Under the guidance and mentorship of Dr. Curtis Page, Jr., Minister of the Williamson Avenue Church of Christ, Brother Dr. Robinson became a faithful servant of the Lord’s church.

Brother Dr. Robinson began preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ in 2003 at the West Northside Drive Church of Christ in Clinton, Mississippi. Later he was trained as an Assistant Minister at the Williamson Avenue Church of Christ in Jackson, Mississippi.  Moving forward to 2016, he became a faithful student/Minister under the leadership and fatherly guidance of Dr. Willie McCord. Dr. McCord is the Minister of the Tenth Avenue Church of Christ in Columbus, Mississippi. Under the leadership of Minister Brother Jessie Davis, Brother Dr. Robinson also served as the Assistant Minister at the Eastside Church of Christ in Meridian, Mississippi.

He is married to his beautiful and wonderful wife, Sister Demetria Robinson. Sister Robinson is a faithful member of the Lord’s Church and is very supportive of her husband. Together, they have wonderful and  amazing children. In 2017, they moved their family to Little Rock, Arkansas. There he was blessed from 2017-2024 to serve as the full-time Minister of Lewis Street Church of Christ.

His Educational background is by far very impressive. Brother Dr. Robinson’s background consists of Psychology and Sociology from Hinds and Holmes Community College. He also has certifications from the University of Alabama and the University of Tennessee. In addition, he took Bible Studies at the School of Religious Studies, Little Rock Arkansas and Amridge University.  The Lord has truly blessed him. Just to name a few of his accomplishments, Brother Dr. Robinson achieved the following: Bachelor’s in Ministry, Master’s in Christian Education, Minor in Family and Marriage Counseling, Doctorate of Leadership and Administration, and an Honorary Doctor of Divinity, Ft Worth, Florida.

Preaching at state lectureships and conducting numerous Gospel meetings throughout the brotherhood, he has received proclamations for services from the Secretary of State. In addition, he became the First Black-African American to receive a certified commencement from the Mayor of the City of Little Rock for two consecutive decades. Serving the gospel, he was an impactful advocate for the community.

God didn’t stop there with him. November 17th, it was awarded and deemed to Brother Dr. Jameel O. Robinson as his own day by the City of Little Rock, Arkansas.

Being a true man of God, life doesn’t come easy. In 2022, while serving as the full-time Minister of Lewis Street Church of Christ, the church was firebombed by an anti-race group. Brother Dr. Robinson endured much persecution, criticism, racism and even death-threats. However, Brother Dr. Robinson applied 2 Timothy 3:12 to his heart, “Those who desires to live godly shall suffer persecution”. The Lord blessed Brother Dr. Robinson to rise above the ashes and successfully complete a newly renovated worship center. Brother Dr. Robinson is truly a man of God. Throughout his ministerial services in Christ, he has and will continue to receive many other acknowledgements and awards.

Brother Dr. Jameel O. Robinson is a man who has been powerfully used by God to bring healing and restoration to many. He is a man of integrity, and his actions consistently align with his faith. From the beginning of his life, God has been with him and has sent him to Coliseum Boulevard Church of Christ to renew, restore and rebuild. So… be patient with him, because God is not through with him yet. To God be the glory! 

Preferred Choice of Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:12 – And I thank Christ Jesus Our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry…
