Dr. Staten C Medsker, Jr. was not raised in any secular belief but was taught by his mother Bonnie how to care for the homeless when they themselves could barely afford food. By genealogy, he is the 4th great grandson of the Prophet Lorenzo Snow and was ordained a Priest in his late teens. He served a mission for a year and a half in the bayous of Louisiana during hurricane Alicia in 1983. He has a phenomenal testimony of spiritual truths through tangible experiences from hearing the voice of God at age 14 that saved his life from riding his motorcycle off a 125 foot cliff, his personal journey investigating many religions and his incredible healing story of saving the life of a pregnant woman in the mountains with a single humble prayer.
Dr. Staten “RocknDoc” Medsker, Jr. brings a powerful combination of personal testimony, original inspirational music, and life-changing messages of faith, forgiveness, and healing to congregations of all denominations. Drawing from his own battles with addiction, homelessness, betrayal, and dishonesty in business, including overcoming a 20-year struggle with addiction, he shares how God’s grace transformed his greatest trials into opportunities to serve others. His messages confront the destructive effects of sin, dishonesty, and addiction while emphasizing Christ’s teachings to forgive 70 x 7, love one another, and see others as God sees them.
Through heartfelt storytelling and original music written to inspire personal growth, strengthen faith, and motivate others to become the best version of themselves, Dr. Medsker encourages audiences to discover hope, healing, and renewed purpose. His ongoing service to the homeless, individuals in recovery, and those facing life’s greatest challenges reflects his belief that faith is demonstrated through action. With a passion for sharing the miracles of God that he believes are still happening around us today, Dr. Medsker delivers an uplifting experience designed to touch hearts, inspire forgiveness, and remind every congregation that we are all God’s children, equally worthy of His love, grace, and salvation. His mission is simple: Turn pain into purpose, trials into testimony, and faith into action.
