Bio

Pastor Andy Thompson began preaching at the age of fifteen, and spent his early years as a youth pastor and evangelist, literally traveling the country, preaching to youth and young adults. During his twenty-five years in the ministry, he has been a Youth Pastor, Pastor of Evangelism and Follow-up, Executive Pastor, and Senior Associate Pastor. In addition to his pastoral experience, Pastor Andy played a major role in the operation and organization of two mega ministries. These experiences, coupled with his experiences from founding and growing his own mega ministry, have caused many to seek his expertise and advice on church growth, and has given him a unique message for the body of Christ today.

Andy Thompson is a spiritual educator, a leader, a motivator of men, a man of faith. He uses modern day parables, humor and truth to challenge spiritual thought and growth in people from every cultural or economic background. His church, World Overcomers Christian Church, currently located in the Research Triangle Park area of Durham, North Carolina, a few miles west of RDU Airport, is one of the fastest growing churches in America.

His television ministry, The Truth with Andy Thompson airs locally in Raleigh, NC on WRAZ and nationally on the WORD network. In addition, each service streams weekly at www.wocconline.org/livebroadcast.
