Lincoln grew up in Lake Waccamaw, N.C. and left when he was 18 to attend the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNCC). In 2009, he felt a call to full-time ministry and was licensed/ordained as a minister in 2013.

He currently serves as President/Founder of Asaph Talks, Inc. and Executive Director of His Show, Inc. After a decade in sports ministry with Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA), Lincoln launched these non-profit organizations to help athletes and their families deal with struggles, setbacks and other issues, while pointing them to faith in Jesus Christ. Since then he’s used opportunities to share the lessons he’s learned through adversity to help others reach their full potential. He has served as the Kingsmen Chaplain for the past 4 years. He now lives in the Charlotte, NC area and is proud to be a born again son of Jesus, a husband to Rachel, and a daddy to Reagan and Ryleigh.
