Jakob has a burning passion to see the lost come to Jesus and to see those bruised and bound by the enemy healed and set free! After being arrested on drug charges, and God miraculously raising him up from a drug overdose he's been on a mission to see God touch the lives of those who desperately need Jesus.
Jakob is a graduate of Christ for the Nations. He spent several years traveling and ministering alongside his mentor, the late revivalist and evangelist, Steve Hill. For seven years he served as Senior Pastor of a growing and fruitful church in Central Illinois. Today Jakob leads outreaches out of Christ for the Nations in addition to his travels to churches locally and internationally. He leads the outreaches as the staff Evangelist of Trinity Church in Cedar Hill under the leadership of Pastor Jim Hennesy. Jakob and his wife Leah live in Dallas Texas with their two beautiful children Moriah and Gabriel.
At the core of everything Jakob Barrientos Minsitries is active in is a strong desire to see revival in these last days. God promised He would pour out His spirit on all flesh in the last days. We also know that He is returning for a bride without spot wrinkle or blemish. Our desire is to be a part of the activity of the Holy Spirit in this last day outpouring as Jesus is preparing to return.
