Ryan Bunbury comes from a legacy of ministers and surrendered his life to Jesus at a young age. Saved, baptized, and filled with the Spirit early in life, he sensed a clear call to ministry and now serves as an ordained minister in the Assemblies of God. With 25+ years of vocational pastoral ministry experience, he holds a Master of Arts in Ministry Leadership (Church Revitalization) and is completing a Doctor of Ministry in Organizational & Strategic Leadership (Growing & Multiplying Churches).
A defining moment came in 1997 when Ryan met Mother Teresa in Calcutta, India. Her words, “You can do what I cannot do, I can do what you cannot do; together we can do great things,” ignited his lifelong passion to win souls and multiply disciple-makers.
Ryan has served in many ministry roles, such as lead pastor, author, church consultant, and worship leader. His personal life mission is: to joyfully make himself a servant to all in order to win as many people as possible to Christ (1 Corinthians 9:19, TPT).
Ryan is passionate about soul care. With a heart to help pastors and ministry leaders get and stay replenished, Ryan is honored to now serve as RPLNISH’s new Director of Strategic Church Relations.
Ryan enjoys drinking coffee, reading, riding his Harley-Davidson, playing games, and of course, laughing with his family and friends. He and his wife, Linaya, have been married for 25 years and are most passionate about raising their three world-changing children (and their two fur babies, Monkey and Biggie).
