Kings & Priests

Together, we will discover that the concept of Kings and Priests is as foundational to the believer as salvation itself. This is because the concept of Kings and Priests is intricately woven into God's original plan and purpose for mankind. This is not new revelation by any means; it is simply revelation or fixed prophecy. To say that it is new revelation is to say that God had to come up with a new idea to add to His already existing plan. That would imply that God is not perfect in all of His ways. Not only is God perfect in all of His ways. His ways will remain perfect whether we acknowledge them or not. We gain an advantage in life when we decide to come to know and understand God. Scripture encourages us to seek wisdom and knowledge, but we are cautioned to remember to gain the essential understanding of how knowledge and wisdom work together.

Apostle Chris A. Esteves was born in New Orleans, Louisiana in the year 1961. At the age of nine, Chris was standing on a pile of wood while living on East 20th street in Los Angeles, California when he promised God "he would be a husband of one wife, and a good father to his children." At the time, he was unaware of the promise that "the Lord is near to all who call on Him, to all who call out to Him in truth." Psalm 145:1. He obtained much spiritual education, including a Bachelor of Biblical Counseling, Master of Biblical teaching, Doctorate of Ministry, and Doctorate of Philosophy from Friends International Christian University. Dr. Esteves has received numerous certificates and commendations during his tenure. Along his spiritual journey, Dr. Esteves received mentoring from his spiritual father, Apostle Frederick K.C. Price. It was important to see someone operating in excellence in the kingdom and Apostle Price was an ideal role model. Dr. Esteves read many of Apostle Price's books and found the blueprint of a successful church and pastoring in those pages. He learned the importance of not only what Apostle Price was doing right, but what he would do differently. This knowledge was vital when God gave Dr. Esteves the vision to establish his own church. God called Dr. Esteves to establish Life Way Church in 1990. Life Way was founded with 11 members and has grown to over 2,000. Life Way Church is effectively fulfilling its mandate to "seek and save that which is lost." The Journey continues with his first book being published and the launching of Kings and Priests, Inc. To the Glory of God!
