PASTOR
R. RICARDO BYNES, II
Biography
Pastor R. Ricardo Bynes, II is most arguably one of the most influential, most creative, most charismatic, out of the box pastors of this decade. Perhaps, ahead of his time and fully armored with the Word of God, Pastor Bynes is determined to be an ambassador for God’s Chosen Generation. He has an impeccable anointing on his life that enables him to see God’s people for who they are and where they are – “whether rich or poor, young or seasoned, educated or uneducated, entrepreneur or ex-con”. Pastor Bynes true calling is to serve and minister to everyone but particularly those that have never had an encounter with Christ.
Pastor Bynes integrity stretches far beyond the four walls of a church. He is a trendsetter by paving the way for both “young” pastors as well as seasoned pastors to break boundaries within ministry and become bold in their delivery of the Word of God. He believes that as a pastor, “we should be willing to discuss those tough subjects that are often unaddressed”.
Holy, humble and hungry to serve and give back to others, Pastor Bynes continues to establish advances within the realms of ministry and the community. He is well respected in both contemporary and traditional spiritual settings for his commitment to encourage others to live in holiness and the likeness of Christ.
Under the covering of Dr. Eric D. Mason, Sr. and Jesus First Christian Community Fellowship Church, Pastor Bynes was able to establish The Life Church- a ministry that targeted culturally diverse people from all socio-economic classes.

He is currently pursuing a Bachelors Degree in Theological Studies. He is married to First Lady Teia Bynes.

Bynes, Randolph R. Bynes, III, and Trinity R. Bynes.
