Zack Cherian serves as the Senior Pastor of Brazen Grace Fellowship. Zack has been in ministry since 1996 and his unique style of ministry presents the Word of God with fresh revelation and a prophetic edge, ushering in the presence of God with demonstrations of His power. After 14 years of helping many churches and ministries, in 2009, God called Zack to step out in faith and found Zack Cherian International Ministries, which has been touching the nations of the World and continues to be very fruitful. Zack has travelled extensively throughout North America, Europe, Asia and South America. He has conducted evangelistic crusades and conferences and has led thousands to salvation in Jesus Christ with signs, wonders and miracles that confirm the word.

In November of 2013, the Lord spoke to Zack about starting an exciting and unique local church in San Antonio with an emphasis on the Grace of God and establishing His Kingdom on the earth.
