Carman was born in New Jersey where he grew up in an Italian home full of music and laughter. As a boy, Carman played the drums and the guitar, and he began singing at 16. and attended Military School for two years. As his career developed, Carman played the tough New Jersey and Philly clubs before went on to Las Vegas. It was after seeing an Andrae Crouch concert that Carman gave his life to the Lord and embraced his newfound Christian faith. After five years of ministerial preparation and working several construction type jobs, he moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma where he began to develop his ministry headquarters for a national outreach.
During the next three decades Carman changed the face of Christian music and evolved contemporary music evangelism into what it is today. Carman established "Carman Ministries" and "Carman World Outreach," non-profit organizations that touched the lives of literally millions of people worldwide.
