Karen Robinson is the founder of Faith 4 Life
Church
in Norman, Oklahoma. With the help and support of her husband John, who is a successful business man, she serves the body of Christ as the senior Pastor of this young and growing church.
John was raised in a Christian home, and was born again at a young age. But, he came into a better understanding of the “full word of God” in 1977 when he attended a Kenneth Copeland meeting in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Soon after, he was filled with the Holy Spirit.
Karen was raised in a “Christian” home, but never had a personal relationship with the Lord. In 1987 (after meeting John) she was born again and filled with the Holy Spirit. This began a journey of faith for her, which as she puts it, “changed her life forever”.
She began attending church at Church on the Way, with Jack Hayford as her Pastor. They both grew up spiritually under the strong teaching of Kenneth Copeland, Kenneth Hagin, and Marilyn Hickey.
In 1993 Pastor Karen received a commission from the Lord to teach the uncompromised Word of God. In September of 2002, after 15 years of study, preparation, and service in the local church, she entered full time ministry.
Word of Faith Christian Center had its roots in the sunroom of the Robinson’s home with about 15 people in attendance. They soon grew, necessitating a move to a larger location. In March, 2004 they held their first service in their own building! Little did she know that the Lord would later have her turn that building over to another church that was in need of a place to hold services.
In October of 2006 the Robinson's planted their second church in the city of Norman, saying that, “We need to be ready for the great end-time harvest of people. And that means that we all need to be in our place, doing what God has called us to do. If everyone in Norman woke up one Sunday morning and decided to go to church, there wouldn’t be enough churches to accommodate them. We need to be ready to lead them to Jesus!”
As before, their church is grounded on the foundation of the love of God and uncompromised Word. It is taught in a practical, easy-to-understand way – “line-upon line and precept”.
Pastor Robinson is ordained through Victory Christian Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma , and she and John are members of Victory Fellowship of Ministries (VFM). The church is a tax-exempt 501(c)3 organization.
If you do not have a church, they both invite you to visit and consider making Faith 4 Life
Church your home church.
