Biography

Joseph Alexander Anthony IV is a husband, father, tenacious worshipper, recording artist, and gifted communicator. For as long as he can remember, he has had a deep love for both music and the presence of God—his earliest revivals taking place in his grandmother’s living room at the age of three. Over the years, his passion for worship and ministry has led him to travel domestically and internationally, sharing his signature style and powerful vocal presence.

A native of East St. Louis, Joseph began his public speaking ministry at the age of twelve, started leading worship in his teens, and still managed to graduate at the top of his high school class. His academic journey took him to Alabama A&M University, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology, and later to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he obtained a Master of Science in Public Health (Epidemiology). It was during his time as a graduate student that he made a covenant connection with Bishop Joby and Pastor Sheryl Brady, which would later play a significant role in shaping his ministry.

Today, Joseph resides in the Dallas, Fort Worth Metroplex, where he serves as a worship leader, staff pastor, grief support group facilitator and director of marketing at The Potter’s House of North Dallas. His ministry extends beyond the pulpit and stage—he is also the founder and lead designer of Jaylite Publications, LLC, a creative agency that has served reputable corporate and celebrity clientele. Whether through his music, branding expertise, or strategic marketing, Joseph’s creative genius continues to impact the kingdom and beyond.

At the heart of all he does is family. Joseph is married to his beautiful wife, Talisha, and together, they are raising their energetic children, Zachary and Nathan, with the exciting anticipation of welcoming their newest addition soon. As the only son of five children, born to Reverend Joseph & Cheryl Anthony III, he holds strong family values as the foundation of his life.

From the early days of revival in his grandmother’s living room to leading thousands in worship, Joseph Anthony’s mission has remained singular—to serve the Lord with all his heart and create atmospheres where people can encounter God in a real way.
