Oprah first met Wintley Phipps at the Baltimore Civic Center. Wintley, a gospel singer and pastor, had just finished his performance when he felt a tap on his shoulder. Oprah, who wasn't yet the spiritual trailblazer she would become, asked Wintley for a moment of his time. Soon after, they had dinner at Wintley's house with his wife. During the dinner, Wintley made a bold prediction about Oprah's future that ended up being extremely prescient. In the video above, the education activist looks back on the moment he realized God was making big plans for Oprah.
