Dennis L. Cole, a pastor for 40 years ministering in the power of the Holy Spirit, has counseled hundreds of people while witnessing the Lord’s deliverance and restoration of those who had been imprisoned by bondages of shame, broken relationships, and addictions. He also is the Regional Director for Kingdom Ministries International (KMI).

Dennis is a clear, prophetic voice not only to the Church, but also to our culture, currently serving on the Council of the Americas for Strategic Christian Services, a leadership organization (based in Santa Rosa, CA) dedicated to demonstrating the relevance of Christianity to every area of contemporary life.

He has been on the board of the Northern KY Right to Life; as well as being one of the early pioneers of home school education in Kentucky. Today, he continues to carry a deep passion for leading generations committed to transforming lives and communities for the Kingdom of God both at home and internationally, including Thailand, Central America, Nigeria, Trinidad, and our own Navajo Native Americans.

Dennis is the senior pastor of LifeGate Church (formerly Covenant Christian Church), a vibrant, relationship-based congregation equally committed to this vision, located in Northern KY (near Cincinnati, OH), where he resides with his wife, Sheila. They are the parents of 6 adult children and 20+ grandchildren. Dennis, an avid outdoorsman and knife-maker, is fondly called “The Bear” by his Navajo Christian brothers, and “Pops” by his grandkids.
