Christ
Will Return is the evangelistic outreach of Ken Campbell and his daughter
Jennifer. Ken earned an Applied Theology degree in residence at Southeastern
University (Lakeland, Florida). Later, he earned a Master of Science degree in
Mathematics from Nova Southeastern University (Ft. Lauderdale, Florida). He also
completed significant coursework at the University of North Florida
(Jacksonville, Florida) and Florida Gateway College (Lake City, Florida). In the
summer of 2019, he retired from teaching high school and college level
mathematics to devote more time to the ministry.
Ken started in the ministry as a teen evangelist. He had the opportunity to
minister in many churches in the southeast region as well as Mexico and the
Virgin Islands. During his teen years, Ken competed at the national level on
piano and organ. At nineteen years of age, he recorded his first gospel
album featuring the song, “The King is Coming.”
In 1974, Ken married his high school girlfriend,
Pam. Pam was very gifted in the area of children's ministry, and she served
God faithfully in local churches and outreach projects in Central America
and the islands of the Caribbean. Children affectionately called her “Aunt
Pam.” Ken and Pam were married for thirty-three years before her passing in
2008.
Ken has served as an evangelist, associate pastor,
senior pastor, worship leader, choir director, head master of a Christian
school, high school teacher, and college level mathematics professor. He has
also worked in home missions church construction, the design and production
of stained glass windows, installation of sound equipment, the wiring of an
entire medium sized church, and the sound studio production of approximately
200 projects for various soloists and gospel singing groups in the
southeast.
Currently, Ken and Jennifer are involved in a world
missionary outreach, Christ Will Return ministries. The focus of this
ministry is to call attention to the return of Jesus Christ, proclaim the
Gospel to those who are lost, and encourage believers to boldly share the
love of Christ.
Ken and Jennifer are both gifted songwriters and
they produce their recordings in house using a large number of acoustic
instruments as well as sampled orchestral notes from the Vienna Symphonic
Library.
Jennifer is a graduate of Florida Gateway College (Lake City, Florida), the University of Florida (Gainesville, Florida), and she earned a Master of Science degree in English Education from Nova Southeastern University (Ft. Lauderdale, Florida). She is the Music teacher at Suwannee Springcrest Elementary School, and she serves as an adjunct English professor for Toccoa Falls College. She is a very talented writer. In the summer of 2019, she published her inspirational autobiography titled, When You’re in the Sunset, There’s Sunshine Awaiting You. In December 2020, she published her second book, Worshiping God in Spirit and in Truth.
She and her father have also written a number of
gospel tracts that have been translated into
approximately twenty languages. When Jennifer is not teaching, they
frequently travel to various parts of the world to share the gospel and sing
of His love.
They have been privileged to visit nearly seventy
countries and possessions around the world. On several occasions, their
travels have included some of the most dangerous countries and dictatorships
in the world. However, God has been with them each step of the way. It is
very humbling to see spiritual hunger in parts of the world where the church
is persecuted. Some of the highest interest in our online ministry resources
comes from very difficult areas of the world.
Ken and Jennifer make their gospel
tracts, the Be Encouraged webcast,
and a number of their songs freely available online for the widest possible
distribution worldwide. Now that Ken is retired from teaching mathematics,
he does not see it as an end, but a new beginning. Ken and Jennifer are
determined to sound the trumpet, for one day soon, Christ Will Return.
