Kenneth Chism is a dynamic preacher, teacher, evangelist, musician, and author from Washington, DC. In 2009, he founded Restoration House International, where he serves as the senior pastor. 

 

Consecrated as a bishop in 2016, Bishop Chism not only leads his congregation but also provides spiritual support and guidance to other pastors and ministries. His passion for spreading the Gospel has taken him across the United States and US Virgin Islands, Israel, Japan, Jamaica, Trinidad, the Bahamas, Kenya, South Africa, Canada, and the United Kingdom.

 

While his pastoral assignment is fulfilling, his first love is music. He has contributed to music ministry in numerous roles, such as church organist, minister of music, choir master, and worship leader. In 2021, he released his debut album, "All Things Well," recorded live at Restoration House International.

 

In 2024, he published his first book, "The Uninvited Guest: Overcoming the Power of Shame,"  which addresses the causes and effects of shame and provides strategies for a shame-free life.

 

Bishop Chism is passionate about worshiping God and serving His people. His greatest joy comes from seeing God's glory shine through his life and work.
