SPEAKER | AUTHOR | PASTOR
King grew up in a revivalistic household in Northwest Arkansas. His grandfather was an Assemblies of God pastor and a participant in the Salvation-Healing Revival—sitting under Jack Coe, A. A. Allen, and Oral Roberts. King loved the inexplicable miracle stories.
​
After attending Central Bible College in Springfield, Missouri in the mid-1990s, King was impacted by the escalating revivals. Believers couldn’t stop talking about what was occurring in Toronto and Pensacola. In 1998, he moved to the cornfields of West Central Missouri to be a supporting leader in the Smithton Outpouring. These encounters transformed his heart.
​
Emerging out of the revival movement, several opportunities arose. In addition to pastoring, King served as the International Director of the Revival Network of Ministries and the Academic Dean at the Revival Training Center. He also developed curriculums, consulted ministry leaders, and traveled as an itinerate speaker.
As a prolific writer, King has contributed articles to Christian publications such as Charisma, Spirit-Led Woman, God TV, and Pneuma Review. His blog posts gained a significant following—with over 1.5 million page views.
​
King has written several books, including:
-
Shift: Leading in Transition
-
The Beast of Revelation: Unraveling the Mystery
-
Regeneration: A Complete History of Healing in the Christian Church
