Ken Priddy is a seasoned church planter and church redevelopment specialist. These two disciplines merged in Ken’s ministry as Senior Pastor of Bridgeway Community Church (Missionary Church denomination) in Phoenix, Arizona, the ReStart of a church that was founded in 1906 and that had dwindled down to six families. In 1993, Ken accepted the call to transplant the remnant of this dying church. By June 2000, Bridgeway was a church of over 300 with an annual budget approaching a half-million dollars and a new facility on 14 acres of land. Over 100 had been baptized by profession of faith, and Bridgeway was providing dynamic ministries in its own community and in nearby northern Mexico.

Ken is an ordained minister in the Missionary Church, an “evangelical denomination committed to church planting and world missions”. In June 2001, Ken co-founded United Front Ministries with ministry partner, Pat Bragg. As president of United Front, he develops training materials, and serves as church development and redevelopment consultant, trainer, coach, and assessor. Ken is married to Sharon and has four children, Brooke, Reid, Kara and Dylan. He holds both the Master of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry degrees from Reformed Theological Seminary in Orlando. His dissertation is titled, “How to ReStart the Dying Church”.
