ADAM HAMILTON
The United Methodist Church of the Resurrection
Rev. Adam Hamilton is the founding pastor of the United Methodist Church of the Resurrection in Leawood, Kansas. He grew up in the Kansas City area, attending Shawnee Mission schools before graduating from Blue Valley High School. He earned a B.A. degree in Pastoral Ministry from Oral Roberts University and a Master of Divinity Degree from Perkins School of Theology at Southern Methodist University.

Adam has received the B'nai B'rith award in Social Ethics, the Denman Award in Evangelism, and the Circuit Rider Award for excellence in church leadership. He was named Distinguished Evangelist of the United Methodist Church by the Foundation for Evangelism, and he was named one of the "Ten People to Watch in America's Spiritual Landscape" by Religion and Ethics Newsweekly. He has been awarded two honorary doctorates and numerous other awards. He currently serves as a Trustee at Saint Paul School of Theology and as a member of the Kansas East Board of Professional Ministry. He lectures on leadership, evangelism and preaching across the country.

The United Methodist Church of the Resurrection has grown from four people in 1990 to over 12,000 adult members with an average weekly worship attendance of over 7,500 in 2006. The church was listed as the most influential mainline church in America in a 2005 survey of American pastors. The Church of the Resurrection has a three-fold focus: 1. Reaching non-religious and nominally religious people and helping them become committed followers of Jesus Christ; 2. Equipping and inspiring members to live their faith in mission to the community and world; and 3. Acting as a catalyst for renewing the mainline church.

Adam has authored six books and several small group studies published by Abingdon Press

About Church
Meet The United Methodist Church of the Resurrection, a congregation in the southern part of the Kansas City metropolitan area committed to building a church for people who like to ask questions, are a bit skeptical of easy answers, are open to discovering truth and are willing to explore the Christian faith.

Since 1990, when the church was founded, thousands of your friends and neighbors have become a part of The Church of the Resurrection. Chances are, someone you know already attends the church. If you were to ask them why they attend, they would likely tell you that the people of the church are welcoming, the worship services are inspiring, the sermons speak to both the intellect and the heart, and the small groups offer real community. For many, this was their first experience with Christianity that made sense, was relevant to their daily lives, and left them looking forward to coming back for more.
