Pastor Johnathan A. Kenney was born in Clearwater, Florida to the late Deacon Cleveland and Sis. Judy Kay Kenney. In 2004 he moved to Fairbanks, AK where God began to develop his love and sense of compassion for people. In 2007, he answered his call into the preaching ministry and has made that his main focus to connect people to their purpose.


In 2016 of November, God granted both Pastor Johnathan and his wife the ability to launch a ministry in Fairbanks, Alaska called, The Hope Church. Within the 5 years of ministry, they have witnessed God’s miracles, signs, and wonders.


Under the leadership of Pastor Kenney, The Hope Church has acquired 2 locations, Fairbanks, Alaska and Colorado Springs, Colorado. The Fairbanks locations has two locations one housing the main worship campus and Hope House, a facility that houses community youth center, community garden and food bank.


Pastor Kenney has been awarded acknowledgments from the United States Army, Governor's Office, the City Mayor, Chief of Police and other organizations. He was also pronounced Fairbank's Men of Distinction in 2013. He is a member and serves as Dean of the Inter-denominational Ministerial Alliance Fairbanks (IMAF), President of the MLK Scholarship Committee.


He is married to Prophetess Monie' Kenney and together they have 3 beautiful girls, Maylin, Deklynn and Symone’. The Kenney's both share a contagious passion and love for Christ and His people. They strive to enlarge the Kingdom by engaging, edifying, and enriching the lives of others by any means necessary.







Her ministry reaches beyond her residence of Fairbanks, Alaska with great influence within the western region. Monie’ has been a licensed elder and prophet since 2016 but has been leading all of her life. Being the oldest has prepared her for the work of maturing the saints and bringing out the very best in those she meets.


Monie’ has written two books entitled, “Character Check” and “Millennial Altar Call: The discipleship book.” She has a passion to release information through any outlet available. This is what makes her ministry innovative, relevant, and appealing to all generations.



“Never let your appearance speak louder than your message. Its okay to be cute and good at what you do but its the Gospel that draws! Study to show thyself approved, rightly divide the word, and walk worthy of the calling….period!” - Prophetess Kenney

God

GOD IS THE CREATOR AND RULER OF THE UNIVERSE. HE HAS ETERNALLY EXISTED IN THREE PERSONALITIES REVEALED TO US AS: THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. THESE THREE ARE CO-EQUAL AND ARE ONE GOD.

Jesus

JESUS CHRIST IS THE SON OF GOD. HE IS CO-EQUAL WITH THE FATHER. JESUS LIVED A SINLESS HUMAN LIFE, AND OFFERED HIMSELF AS THE PERFECT SACRIFICE FOR THE SINS OF ALL MEN BY DYING ON A CROSS. HE AROSE FROM THE DEAD AFTER THREE DAYS TO DEMONSTRATE HIS POWER OVER SIN AND DEATH. HE ASCENDED TO HEAVEN’S GLORY, AND WILL RETURN AGAIN TO EARTH TO REIGN AS KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

The Holy Spirit

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS EQUAL WITH THE FATHER AND THE SON AS GOD. HE IS PRESENT IN THE WORLD TO MAKE MEN AWARE OF THEIR NEED FOR JESUS CHRIST. HE ALSO LIVES IN EVERY CHRISTIAN FROM THE MOMENT OF SALVATION. HE PROVIDES THE CHRISTIAN WITH POWER FOR LIVING, UNDERSTANDING OF SPIRITUAL TRUTH, AND GUIDANCE IN DOING WHAT IS RIGHT. THE CHRISTIAN SEEKS TO LIVE UNDER HIS CONTROL DAILY. WE BELIEVE THAT THE BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT IS AN ENDOWMENT OF POWER AVAILABLE TO EVERY BELIEVER SUBSEQUENT TO CONVERSION. WE BELIEVE IN THE PRESENT SUPERNATURAL MINISTRY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT THROUGH THE BELIEVERS BY THE MANIFESTATION OF HIS GIFTS.

Man

MAN IS MADE IN THE SPIRITUAL IMAGE OF GOD, TO BE LIKE HIM IN CHARACTER. HE IS THE SUPREME OBJECT OF GOD’S CREATION. ALTHOUGH MAN HAS TREMENDOUS POTENTIAL FOR GOOD, HE IS MARRED BY AN ATTITUDE OF DISOBEDIENCE CALLED “SIN”. THIS ATTITUDE SEPARATES MAN FROM GOD. WE BELIEVE THAT GOD HAS A DESTINY FOR EACH BELIEVER AND THAT HIS PURPOSE FOR US INVOLVES THE ESTABLISHING OF HIS KINGDOM IN OUR LIVES.

Eternity

MAN WAS CREATED TO EXIST FOREVER. HE WILL EITHER EXIST ETERNALLY SEPARATED FROM GOD BY SIN, OR IN UNION WITH GOD THROUGH FORGIVENESS AND SALVATION. TO BE ETERNALLY SEPARATED FROM GOD IS HELL. TO BE ETERNALLY IN UNION WITH HIM IS ETERNAL LIFE. HEAVEN AND HELL ARE PLACES OF ETERNAL EXISTENCE.

Salvation

SALVATION IS A GIFT FROM GOD TO MAN. MAN CAN NEVER MAKE UP FOR HIS SIN BY SELF-IMPROVEMENT OR GOOD WORKS. ONLY BY TRUSTING IN JESUS CHRIST AS GOD’S OFFER OF FORGIVENESS CAN MAN BE SAVED FROM SIN’S PENALTY. ETERNAL LIFE BEGINS THE MOMENT ONE RECEIVES JESUS CHRIST INTO HIS LIFE BY CONFESSION OF FAITH IN HIS LIFE, DEATH, AND RESURRECTION.

The Bible

THE BIBLE IS GOD’S WORD TO ALL MEN. IT WAS WRITTEN BY

 HUMAN AUTHORS, UNDER THE SUPERNATURAL GUIDANCE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.

 IT IS THE SUPREME SOURCE OF TRUTH FOR CHRISTIAN BELIEFS 

AND LIVING. BECAUSE IT IS INSPIRED BY GOD, IT IS TRUTH WITHOUT 

ANY MIXTURE OF ERROR, RELEVANT TO CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY, AND 

CARRIES POWER TO IMPART FAITH IN LIFE.
