About Chris Ulery
Author. Speaker. Worshiper.
Chris Ulery is an evangelist with a driving passion to raise a generation of true God lovers who live to touch God’s heart. Chris was born into a pastor’s family and knew from an early age he was called to preach.
While attending a worship/evangelism school in Nashville, TN, country and bluegrass legend Ricky Skaggs prophesied that Chris was to be “a communicator for the Kingdom of God.” Afterwards, Chris began receiving invitations to minister, in both word and song.
In 2009, Chris set sail with the chart-topping, Dove Award-winning music group FFH. This led to a whirlwind season of TV performances, radio performances, and traveling coast-to-coast to perform live for audiences of thousands. As Chris’ travels took him into churches all across the nation, he felt led to focus on speaking ministry and enrolled in world-renowned Rhema Bible Training College in Broken Arrow, OK to prepare.
After graduation, Chris experienced great success traveling and leading multiple youth and young adult ministries. Today, Chris travels ministering out of his new book, “Is God Mean?” while serving in monthly outreaches with Vital Society and on the board of Project 600.
