About Ken Winter and Proclaiming Him

Proclaiming Him is the personal blog of Ken Winter.

Ken’s life verse is Colossians 1:28–29, which is where the name of this blog originated from.

We proclaim Him, admonishing every man and teaching every man with all wisdom, so that we may present every man complete in Christ. For this purpose also I labor, striving according to His power, which mightily works within me.

Responding to God’s call from the business world in 1992 to full-time vocational ministry, Ken joined the staff of First Baptist Church of West Palm Beach, Florida, serving as associate pastor of administration and global mission.

In 2004, God led his wife LaVonne, his two teenagers and him on a Genesis 12 journey, that resulted in his serving with the International Mission Board (IMB) of the Southern Baptist Convention. From 2006 until 2015, he served as the vice president of church and partner services of IMB, assisting churches across the US in mobilizing their members to make disciples of all peoples.

Most recently he served as senior associate pastor of Grove Avenue Baptist Church in Richmond, Virginia.

Today that Genesis 12 journey continues as Ken labors as a bond-servant of the Lord Jesus Christ in the proclamation of the gospel to the end that every person may be presented complete in Christ.
