DR. KENNETH DOVE

Ken has been in full-time ministry since the age of 21.  His hobbies include reading, writing and treasure hunting in various secondhand locations.  Ken and Arlene began their ministry at Gracepointe in November of 2014. 

Ken explains his philosophy of ministry as follows:

"The church's involvement in its people is two fold.  First, it is to create an environment for disciple making.  Whether it is in corporate worship through the preaching and teaching of the Word, or in small group discussions, connecting the community together is vital for strong and healthy relationships to take hold among all ages.  Secondly, the church must provide the tools and resources for making our homes, especially for young families, a vibrant place where Christ is taught and family altars abound.

I am eager to continue to be a part of a church that professes and teaches scriptural holiness, to be with a people that are seeking a revival of God's Spirit through the church and a break through of His Spirit in all that we do.

I thoroughly enjoy watching God work and move in and outside the church.  I personally desire not just to be a better leader, but a better follower first.  A follower of Jesus, for where He leads me I will follow.  My song these days is 'Be Thou My Vision."  I pray that my vision would first be His vision.  What a joy it is to serve HIM!"
