from Light in the Wilderness Ministries · host Light in the Wilderness Ministries

Pastor Ken Graves is a passionate and dynamic minister, known across the country as “The Viking Pastor” for his powerful presence, rugged authenticity, and deep love for the truth of God’s Word. Once a troubled youth himself, Pastor Ken experienced firsthand the destructive grip of addiction, abuse and brokenness before encountering the transforming grace of Jesus Christ. Answering the call to ministry, Ken went on to found Calvary Chapel Bangor in Maine, where he has faithfully served as senior pastor for decades. His bold, uncompromising teaching style and heart for the lost have made him a sought-after speaker at conferences, retreats, and events nationwide. Pastor Ken also started Calvary Residential Discipleship (Men's) and Blessed Hope (Women's), two Christ-centered programs dedicated to helping men and women break free from the chains of addiction through the power of God’s Word, prayer, and real discipleship. Through CRD and BH, countless lives have been restored, families reunited, and testimonies of freedom have multiplied. With a warrior’s spirit and a shepherd’s heart, Pastor Ken Graves continues to proclaim the gospel, make disciples, and call people to live out a courageous, uncompromising faith.
