Going Places
It's Much More Than A Book. It's a MINDSET. It's A MANDATE. It's A MISSION.
About Pastor Mel
Born to Carl Outler & Patricia Keyes in Brooklyn, New York Mel, grew up in a loving household with his mother Patricia as well as his grandparents, Melford C. & Laura J. Keyes. At seventeen he entered in the United States Air Force where he spent ten years on active duty stationed in Texas where he met his lovely wife, Kendra F. Keyes, now married for over 34 years. They have three children and five grandchildren and for the past 18 of those years, Mel has continued to grow as pastor of The Joshua House of Worship, located in the heart of the west side of San Antonio.
Mel has authored three books, “Hell To The Know” and “7 Keyes For The BEST Of Your Life” both, based on biblical principles pointed at living an empowered life. His latest book, “Going Places” is an anthology filled with the incredible stories of ten powerful women of God. He’s also served as the publisher for “If Carol Can,” the life story of one of his daughters in ministry.
As an entrepreneur Mel has created conferences, inspirational radio programming & even served as a cast member for a personal development based reality TV show called “The Keynote.” He and Kendra enjoy owning & operating their work from home travel business teaching others how to travel more affordably, creating additional income and funding extra support for passions and kingdom causes like their own role in orphan ministry.
As a community leader and an adaptive parent himself, Mel became a charter member & vice chairman of The Community Clergy Advisory Board (CCAB) a state mandated group that promotes the adoption of and provision of services to minority children through consulting with churches and other civic organizations. He presently serves as the region 8 representative and member on The Advisory Committee On Promoting Adoption of Minority Children, appointed by the Texas Department Of Family And Protective Services Commissioner.
Mel’s studies include an associate degree from the United States Air Force in instruction methodologies, an Associate of Arts in Cross Cultural Studies and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Theology from The Baptist University of the Americas; as well as a Master's of Arts degree in Christian Ministry from The Dallas Baptist University.
As a certified life coach with 48 Days and founder of “Master Keyes Coaching & Consulting,” Pastor Mel is focused on helping others access the keys to unlock the vision inside of them in the three fold areas of:
Ministry, Entrepreneurship and Leadership.
What Others Are Saying About Going Places
Apostle H. Daniel Wilson,
Valley Kingdom Ministries International,

The key is not just going, but who is going with you. I don’t travel with just anybody; you have to be family or friends. Yet, as much as I like going places with my wife, the person who always has an invitation is my Lord. For I know that going places with folks is good, but going places with my Father is even greater. Be blessed by this wonderful book and these awesome authors.

About The Book
Don’t you want something better? Don’t you want to live more, do more, have more, and be more? Are you aware of a GOD BREATHED vison and purpose much LARGER than LIFE that so often keeps you up at night? Why live so small in such a BIG WORLD? Why settle for the kiddy pool when there’s an OCEAN out there? Why confine yourself to the opinions, fears, and unbelief of others when YOU know YOU were born for so much more?
Let’s face it; all of us have been somewhere, is somewhere and are headed somewhere. The only question is where & the only solution for those who really want something greater is to do the inventory & make the investment necessary to get to the places you’ve always been dreaming about going. Then what’s left is to connect with a suitable travel advisor who could show you with his or her eyes closed how you could live your dreams with your eyes wide open.
If this resonates with you already then pack your bags, grab your passport, and take this trip with me as a minister of the gospel, certified life coach and kingdom entrepreneur.
Along with a few of my personal traveling companions, we will help you discover brand new territories, regions & continents of opportunities that you were absolutely born to experience; opportunities you have always heard calling your name during your most quiet moments. Just like my first two books: “Hell To The Know” and “7 Keyes For The Best Of Your Life,” “Going Places” is also loaded with biblical principles, aimed at helping you to navigate from where you have been and presently are to reaching the greatest destinations of your God inspired dreams.

Originally from Cleveland Ohio, Tanya has never been a stranger to Going Places. Both serving on active duty in the United States Air Force and driving trucks all over the country allowed her to travel, but not at the capacity of what's happening now. Being a Christian, wife, mother, grandmother and published author of "Transparency: I Remember Hurt," Tanya confessess that she sometimes didn't allow herself to be her BEST SELF. In her own words, "having to be whatever someone else needed me to be, I sometimes forgot about myself but after the death of a child, you tend to look at things differently and you have the need to do and BE MORE."

What Key Leaders Are Saying ...
Pastor Keith Graham,
Now Word Covenant Church,

To everyone who has a ministry along with a life vision, and don’t know the principles to make it happen I highly recommend Going Places.
If you sincerely and truly want a life change that comes from a ministry vision change from God Going Places provides the inspiration and information you need. You will no longer be alone, but Going Places is sharing mentorship to help you fulfill your ministry vision. You are joined with a fellowship of likeminded people to encourage you.
Finally, you will learn ministry can also be tied to entrepreneurship to increase your wealth for the kingdom and an inheritance for your family.
Your prayers have been answered. Be blessed!!

We are often taught life is simply choices of “this OR that” and yet we long for “this AND that” in our lives.
Look closely at God’s directions to bring the experience of Him and His love to this world. “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8 NIV.
This verse calls us to experience the work of Christ in the “ANDs” from home to the world. Getting to “AND” requires an experienced guide to lead the way!
Pastor Mel Keyes is the leader for “AND” in this book he helps us to see how God is at work AND how to join in.
