Dr. Chris Cunningham
Lead Pastor

Dr. Chris has been a Christian for more than 42 years, most of which he has served in some leadership role in the local church. He has a passion for prayer, intercession and revival. It was love at first sight for Dr. Chris, but Dahlia had other plans and so it wasn't until after four long years of courtship she gave in and the two were married in June 1987 (32 years). They are now ministry partners.
He was ordained as a minister of the Gospel in January 2004. He formerly facilitated the International Café Service at New Life Church, which had attendees from more than thirty countries. He has also taught more than 1,500 students at the college and university levels since 2003-2018.
Dr. Chris has worked in the media for more than 32 years. He earned a Ph.D. in Communication from Regent University. He also has a Masters in Cinema-Television (Producing and also Directing), and a Bachelor's Degree from Trinity International University in Biblical Studies (summa cum laude). Dr. Chris is the author of two books - Worship 101: Discovering the God We Worship in 101 Ways (English and Mandarin Chinese) and The Enoch Treasure: When God Walks with a Friend.
