Clark, General Overseer
Bishop Keith L. Clark - BIO
It's the comedic delivery, transparency and above all simplification of God's word that has the nation all ears when Bishop Keith Lee Clark approaches the mic to speak. A Teaching Preaching Pastor who has set precedent in the Bay Area by way of thousands who tune in every Sunday morning to The World Hit Gospel Show, which airs on iHeart Radio an
d KMEL, in anticipation of hearing Bishop Clark share God's word in a way that is applicable to living life the way God intended. The ability to captivate an audience through the airwaves in such a profound way is just one of the many reasons Bishop Clark has been the special guest on this show for 10+ years, and given the fast growing listening audience, there are many years ahead. The Huffington Post Newspaper caught wind of Bishop Clark's series Rethinking S*x: It's not Just Physical, and an article was written that not only talked about this series, but it also applauded Bishop Clark's millennial way of reaching people through God's word that was different, authentic and remained biblical. If you ask someone who has heard him through multi-media, on the radio or as a guest Pastor at their church, they might say he delivers God's truth in an Amazing way. If you ask a member of any of the five WORD Assembly Churches, they might say he’s Anointed. If you ask a Brother or Sister of the Cloth, Pastor, Bishop, or Minister they might say he’s an Advisor. If you ask Bishop Clark, he’d say, “While all these attributes are true to those who speak them, my only concern and focus is that God is pleased with me. And that He is pleased with how I serve and lead His people.”
That is who Bishop Clark is. A "God Chaser" with a passion for serving God’s people. Born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana, Bishop has made Oakland home for the past 20+ years. Bishop brings a little of the south with him in his values, sermon delivery and emphasis on family. He sees himself and is seen by others as more than "The Bishop" but as the leader of a family of churches; where the Word is working and the people are working the Word. We know that truth has power! When we hear it, see it or if we are in the same room as it; we know it's there and we respond differently. Some run from it and some of us run to it. Bishop speaks the truth you can't help but be drawn to. He genuinely believes everyone - regardless of gender, ethnicity, sexual preferences, economic status, past histories, etc. - everyone, deserves an opportunity at an authentic relationship with Christ. Some call this theory of thought radical, real or revolutionary. Bishop Clark refers to it as walking confidently in his calling. It is that calling that has taken Bishop Clark, God's word and God's mission, locally, regionally and globally to those in need. After 20+ years of pastoring, he hasn't slowed down and he continues to be a servant leader for God.
