Daniel P. Kinkade's Blog

Thoughts and resources on following Jesus, next generation ministry, and leadership.

About Daniel

Acts 20:24, “But I consider my life of no value to myself; my purpose is to finish my course and the ministry I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of God’s grace.”

I believe the greatest calling in the world is to reach and disciple the next generation for Christ. With nearly two decades experience in local church ministry and seven years in the editorial space, I’m passionate about equipping ministry leaders with effective biblical resources. My goal is to help teenagers and their circles of influence navigate life and grow as authentic followers of Jesus. I have experience writing for organizations such as The Gideons International, Lifeway Christian Resources, Youth Ministry 360, Tennessee Baptist Mission Board, and Church Answers. 

I have been married to my best friend, Emily, since 2007. We have two children, Madelyn and Caleb. Our family resides in Mount Juliet, Tennessee, where I serve as the groups pastor at our local church. I’m also also a devoted and unashamed Vanderbilt Commodores fan with a slight Mountain Dew addiction.

I pray this blog will encourage and equip you in your journey of following Jesus Christ!
