Jan Baker was
raised in a preacher’s home from the age of five.
Her father, an ordained minister for the Church of God
(Cleveland, TN), pioneered numerous churches across the Midwest and
Northwest United States and held pastorate in eight States.
As a minister’s daughter, Jan Baker grew up around the
typical church scene.
From an early
age, Jan Baker was taught the necessity, power, privilege, and
experience of prayer. The teaching she received in childhood and
teenage years has kept her on a journey toward destiny ever since.
She has been effectively teaching the same power of prayer for over
twenty-five years.
After nearly
eighteen years of pastorate in Denver, Colorado, thirteen years of
pastorate in the Church of God and 5 years of national and
international itinerate ministry, Jan Baker moved her ministry
headquarters to the Northwest Louisiana. While in Louisiana, a
vibrant church was planted and during a New Year’s Service on
December 31, 2002, the “winds of God” began to blow. Since 2003,
Pastor Jan has dedicated her life to the pursuit of the Kingdom of
God and the carrying of revival to the nations. The season of
pioneering in Louisiana did not come easily.
Jan Baker faced crisis, loss, betrayal and enormous spiritual
warfare in both ministerial and personal levels.
However, having a firm foundation from childhood, she
continued to see breakthrough in every realm.
In February
2008, Jan Baker and a team of pastors agreed to carry the winds of
Revival to the Raleigh, North Carolina metro area. It was during
this relocation that Pastor Jan connected with the Kansas City
Revival at World Revival Church (home to the Smithton Outpouring)
and realized that her passion for city-wide revival was not merely a
dream. Now, as a member of World Revival Network, Pastor Jan and the
congregation of Forward Church are living the dream.
Upon relocation
to North Carolina, Pastor Jan felt it was necessary to pioneer a
Church with a passion for revival.
During this season, Forward Church is the main focus, serving
as a vibrant and energetic home base for Jan Baker Ministries.
Beyond Forward Church, Jan Baker continues her itinerate ministry,
both nationally and globally.
The ministry of Jan Baker highlights revival, as she imparts life and restores the broken and captive everywhere she travels. She preaches a challenging message that will inspire you, both naturally and spiritually, to walk into your destiny. Jan Baker ministers with intense deliverance and apostolic/prophetic anointing, preaching and living an uncompromised Gospel and a demonstration of the power of that Gospel.
