MorningStar Ministries

MorningStar Ministries is a multi-faceted, international ministry. Founded in 1985 by Rick and Julie Joyner, MorningStar Ministries has continued to bring timely spiritual food or “meat in due season” to the body of Christ through various publications, schools, ministries, and conferences.

Rick Joyner is also Founder and Executive Director of Heritage International Ministries and is the Senior Pastor of MorningStar Fellowship Church. His ministry is based on Matthew 24:45–46 as well as a commitment to equip future leaders and work in relationship with current leaders to prepare and strengthen the church for the last days.

Joyner also directs MorningStar University, Comenius School for Creative Leadership, MorningStar Fellowship of Ministries, and MorningStar Fellowship of Churches. The MorningStar Fellowship of Churches has several branches in North Carolina: Charlotte, Wilkesboro, Wilmington, and Winston-Salem.

He has authored more than fifty books, including, "The Final Quest Trilogy," "There Were Two Trees in the Garden," and "The Path". He is Editor of "The MorningStar Journal" and "The MorningStar Prophetic Bulletin."

In addition to publications, Joyner oversees MorningStar TV where subscribers can watch conferences, Sunday services, School of the Spirit services, and more. He hosts the show Prophetic Perspectives where he shares strategic prophetic insights for our time.

Joyner is also the President of The Oak Initiative, an interdenominational movement that is mobilizing thousands of Christians to be engaged in the great issues of our times, being the salt and light that they are called to be.

He and his wife, Julie, have five children: Anna, Aaryn, Amber, Ben, and Sam.
