2021 - Evangelists
Billy Huddleston - Cincinnati Ohio
In 1998, Billy Huddleston left a three year youth pastorate near Chicago to be a full time evangelist. As he spent time in youth ministry, he felt the Lord calling him to invest in the church the same way he was most encouraged as Believer. “Anything major that happened in my life,” Billy explains, “happened at a revival.” Seeing how the Word impacted the direction of his life through revival services cultivated a zeal for others to experience the same.
Today, Billy has a passion for seeing revival in the church and travels 48 weeks out of the year to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to all denominations across the country. In addition to his travels, Billy hosts a radio program, “The Word In You,” that airs weekly on stations across the nation.
