Our current focus
We currently serve pastors, and ministry leaders who are advancing the gospel in their communities. Through biblical teaching, spiritual formation, and leadership development, we seek to strengthen leaders for long-term ministry.
Our first initiative
Our primary initiative this year (2026) is the Antioch pastoral formation cohort—small communities of pastors committed to growing in Scripture, leadership, and mission together.
About the founders
John and Babbrah are the founders of Awaken Kingdom Ministries. Born and raised in Kenya, they each came to faith in Jesus Christ during their teenage years and have been serving through local churches and parachurch ministries ever since. They met in New Jersey, were married in 2018, and are now raising two young children.
In 2020, they moved to Dallas, Texas, to pursue theological training at Dallas Theological Seminary. Babbrah earned a Master of Arts in Biblical and Theological Studies, and John earned a Master of Theology (ThM).
Awaken Kingdom Ministries grew out of an earlier young adult Bible study and worship ministry called Let’s Grow Together. Through years of discipleship, ministry, and serving alongside church leaders, the Lord deepened their burden to see believers rooted in Christ and leaders strengthened for faithful ministry.
Today, through Awaken Kingdom Ministries, John and Babbrah seek to encourage, equip, and mobilize believers, pastors, and ministry leaders for discipleship, leadership development, and participation in God’s mission among the nations.

Why we exist
Awaken Kingdom We believe the local church is God’s primary instrument for His mission in the world. Yet many believers and pastors — especially in under-resourced contexts — serve faithfully with little access to training or support. Our heart is to come alongside the Church with humility, biblical clarity, and practical tools so that disciples are formed, leaders are strengthened, and communities are transformed by the gospel.
