Leadership
At I Am Church, leadership is rooted in biblical integrity, prayer, service, and a deep commitment to the Word of God. Our desire is to lead in a way that honors Jesus Christ, strengthens believers, and serves people with wisdom, humility, and love.
Meet Our Pastors
I Am Church is led by Suffragan Bishops Jeffrey S. Akers and Dr. Kandy Akers, whose ministry is marked by biblical conviction, spiritual leadership, and a deep love for God’s people. Together, they carry a heart for prayer, sound doctrine, discipleship, and the transforming power of Jesus Christ. Their leadership reflects both pastoral care and a broader Kingdom vision that reaches beyond the local church through missions, ministry, media, business, and service.
