Mario Joseph

Dr. Mario Joseph, a devoted Christian author, and a community pillar, embodies a life committed to faith, family, and service. Born into the Catholic faith, Mario's spiritual journey would lead him on a remarkable path of devotion and purpose.

In 1993, fate introduced Dr. Mario to Rolaine, who would later become his beloved wife for three decades and the nurturing mother of their five sons. This union was not just a love story but a catalyst for Dr. Mario's profound transformation. In 1994, under Rolaine's guidance, Dr. Mario made the life-altering decision to accept Jesus Christ as his savior. He symbolized this newfound faith through baptism shortly after that, marking his formal entry into the Bethel Baptist Church as an esteemed member.

Throughout the years, Dr. Mario's dedication to his church knew no bounds. He wholeheartedly embraced numerous roles, from leading the Music Department to serving as President of Administration and Chair of the Board of Trustees. His versatile talents extended to project management, media production, and sound engineering. Moreover, he inspired and guided the church youth as the Epic Youth Coordinator and founder of BHBC Epic Youth Nations.

Dr. Mario's academic achievements are equally impressive, reflecting his commitment to continuous learning. He holds bachelor’s degrees in organizational leadership and business administration and master’s degrees in organizational leadership and the pursuit of biblical studies. His pursuit of knowledge culminated in a Doctor of Business Administration focused on Information Technology Management. Furthermore, he honed his skills with a Mini-MBA in Digital Marketing, certifications in project management, applying for grants, managing, and grants writing.

Beyond his academic and ecclesiastical accomplishments, Bethel licenses Dr. Mario to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and puts Dr, Mario on the path for pastoral ordination. His life's journey is a testament to unwavering faith, family values, and an unyielding commitment to serving his community and Creator.
