About JK
Jamell K. (JK) Hamilton is an orator with the personality of a Brooklyn swagger and a heart the size of Texas. He has been touching the lives of people through the “Good News” for over 20 years from his early beginnings as a student of the Bible in Brooklyn, New York to his current position as a local evangelist at his congregation in Dallas, Texas where ten years ago, he began a full time ministry.
JK, as his parishioners fondly refer to him, knew from an early age that he wanted to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with others. When making a decision about college, he did not hesitate to select Southwestern Christian College, a school that focuses primarily on Theology. There he met and married Carole M. Burnett, his college sweetheart. Together they have three daughters: Jayla Kamille, Jordan Kierra and Janyece Karyl.
After graduating from Southwestern Christian College, JK began ministering to the Sheppard Street Church of Christ in Mount Pleasant, Texas. After ministering there for approximately three and a half years, the Lord moved him from east Texas to Mountain View in Dallas, Texas with a 800+ and growing membership, Mountain View would offer JK an opportunity to create outreach ministries, partner with other community leaders, and execute his vision on a larger platform.
While ministering at The Mountain View church, JK decided his purpose is to teach people to reach their God given potential and give them the encouragement to overcome the hurdles that prevent them reaching those goals all while sharing the good news of salvation through Christ. He saw ministry as an opportunity to show people that God’s love can heal every broken situation. As a result, J.K. Hamilton went on to further his education and now holds a Masters Degree in Professional Development with a concentration in counseling. He continues to motivate people to live the abundant life through his biblical teachings and by ministering with relentless passion. In 2006 he founded and established the Spirit spark company as catalyst of marketing his personal ministry.
As JK Hamilton evolves, so does his audience. In a quest to reach the masses, he collaborated with local Dallas Radio Personality Rudy V, to create the “Monday Moment of Truth,” a Q&A session about living with passion featured on 94.5, an award winning Dallas Radio Station. This led to the “Message of the Day” presented by Mt. View featuring JK Hamilton. This one-minute spot was broadcast on 97.9 and 94.5 morning drive time Monday through Friday.
