Ken Copeland, a great author, speaker, televangelist and the founder of the Christian organization Kenneth Copeland Ministries was born at Lubbork, Texas on 6′th December 1939. His conversion to Christianity took place in November 1962.

He was initially a recording artist of partial Native American decent. However after his conversion to Christianity he left the recording art and started writing articles and books. His work was widely appreciated and his performance made place in the list of top charts. His work on Billboard entered the list of top 40 hits. In Apr 20, 1957 his work “Pledge of Love” also made a place in the top 40’s and stayed there for an 8 week period. The best place he could reach in the list of top charts was 12th.

After conversion he worked hard on Christian Ministry works. He was the chauffeur for Oral Roberts in the 1960s. Later he did get an enrollment at Oral Roberts University which is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

When he was at the Oral Roberts University he got to become the main member of the Oral Roberts University Boards of Regents. He remained the main member of the board till 2008. A new board was raised later on to ensure higher standards of financial accountability. Previously during October 2007 the University was blamed for performing wrong financial and political acts. Ken Copeland’s eldest daughter Terri got married to George Pearson. George Pearson was the chairman of the board of Oral Toberts University till January 2008.

Kenneth Copeland Ministries grew up during 1970’s and his “Believer’s Voice of Victory” came on television during 1979. The ministries created by Ken had their Headquarter at Newark and Texas. They were even based internationally at locations in Australia, Africa, Canada, United Kingdom and Ukraine. The ministries had been actively involved with prison inmates in 23 countries.

Some people had criticized the teachings of Ken Copeland on different issues. In “Word Faith Movement” he said that claim on faith healing and Bible believers will get returns for their giving ( Refer : Genesis 26:12, Mark 4:20, Mark 10:29-30, Luke 6:38, II Corinthians 9:6-12 and Galatians 3:13-14 of the Bible). This work of Ken was widely criticized.

Ken Copeland taught us to praise God all the time be it the morning, noon or night. He said that those who have not yet praised god in their lifetime should start praising him. We have to praise him for the freedom, for healing and for Calvary. On basis of Lord Jesus being the first person who mentioned in the phrase “Born Again” everyone asked Ken Copeland the exact meaning of that phrase.

An Airport with the name ‘Kenneth Copeland Airport’ has been established at Texas. This Airport was established by the Kenneth Copeland Ministries. Some very well known work of Ken are: You are healed, A ceremony of marriage, Prayer: Your foundation for success, Becoming subject to authority of Jesus, How to discipline your flesh and the wake-up call.
