Bishop Adam G. Blackstock is a proud husband and father of five beautiful children. He was born and raised in the Flatbush area of Brooklyn, New York. From New York, he moved to Miami to attend the University of Miami. After a transfer from his employer to the Kansas City Area, he received the Call of God on his life. Bishop Blackstock continued to strive for a biblical education and earned his Doctorate Degrees in Christian Education and Pastoral Theology from Faith Bible College in Independence, Missouri. Bishop Blackstock, whose gospel ministry started as an under Shepard at one of the largest ministries in the Greater Kansas City Area, learned that the Word of God, Righteousness, and the Holy Spirit will bring about a Power of God that can break through mountains (mountains of strongholds, mountains of physical pain, and mountains of lack).

Several years after being called by God into the Ministry, Bishop founded Glory Bible Fellowship International Church (GBFIC), with the Mandate to bring God's people back to the center of His Will through Healing, Deliverance, Sound Doctrine, and Holy & Righteous Living. He has also began Adam Blackstock Ministries, which is a dynamic ministry that reaches the world for Christ, through Christian Motivational Speaking, Preaching and Teaching the Word of God. He has ministered internationally in Uganda & Kenya.

The church serves the greater Kansas City Area with humility and love.  Alongside him is his wife, Dr. Adrinne Blackstock; a loving co-laborer called, “Prophetess Adrinne”, the two began a journey in faith that started with such humble beginnings. GBFIC went from a church in the basement of Bishop & Prophetess’s home to a wonderful Church edifice in Lee’s Summit, Missouri today. GBFIC also started an Iowa Outreach Ministry that ministers to troubled women at the House of Mercy in Des Moines, Iowa.
