Dr. Harshaw hails from Pasadena, California and has received a Bachelor of Arts in Theology from Point Loma Nazarene College, both the Master of Divinity and Doctorate of Ministry degrees from the School of Theology at Claremont, California and Master of Arts degrees in Theology from Nazarene College in San Diego.

Dr. Harshaw is currently pastor of First Baptist Church in Raleigh an also serves as Chairman of the Social Action Committee of the Raleigh Interdemoninational Ministerial Alliance.

In addition to his pastoral duties at First Baptist, and his community ministries, he also makes time to teach as an Adjunct Professor at the Duke University Divinity School. In many ways, Harshaw is cut from the same cloth as Dr. King, both innately learned in Theological Doctrine and gifted with the ability to preach.
