| KingdomLife is a true kingdom model in the sense that it is not led by one person, but by a team of people. The core leadership of the ministry consists of three groups of people – the apostolic/elder team, the governing board, and the apostolic/prophetic advisory board. The apostolic/elder team provides day to day oversight of the responsibilities of the ministry, the governing board provides oversight in policy-making and execution of ministry planning, and the apostolic/prophetic advisory board provides counsel and input for overall direction of the ministry. In addition to the leadership team, KingdomLife is also covered by the Federation of Ministers and Churches International (FMCI) led by Apostle Jim & Jean Hodges. FMCI provides accountability and oversight of the overall KingdomLife mandate by supporting its vision and implementing strategies that strengthen the core leadership. Together, the leadership team advances the kingdom of God by overseeing the model called KingdomLife and by ensuring that it is moving forward in the right direction. |

Having ministered in over 40 nations, Apostle Jim serves the Body of Christ internationally as a teaching apostle with a passion to see the Body of Christ fully established.

She releases a strong prophetic anointing for breakthrough as the power of God flows through her for healing, deliverance, and miracles. Her heart is for individuals to break into a supernatural realm of God’s Spirit so they may arise and walk in their destiny and inheritance. Apostle Jim and Jean provide a strong covering over the leadership team of KingdomLife. |
