In 1999, Scott Johnson, along with his wife, Missy, and three sons, Zachary, Gabriel and Quenten, began BelieversWay Church in Amarillo, Texas. Their vision was to bring the hope of the gospel toWest Texas and to teach believers how to find God’s specific path for their individual lives.
Prior to beginning their own ministry in Amarillo, Scott and Missy worked for Kenneth Copeland Ministries for more than 20 years. Scott was the Director of Television from 1993-1999. As the television director, Scott did more than produce the Believer's Voice of Victory television programs and KCM's children's movies. He fulfilled one more important segment in the call of God on his life.
Born and raised in the southwest, Scott was born again and filled with the Holy Spirit by the age of 6. Growing up as the son of a pastor, Scott faithfully used his talents for the Lord. By the age of 13, he was singing every time the church doors were open.
When Scott was a teenager, he began to realize the call of God on his life. While attending a Kenneth Copeland Ministries meeting, God began to reveal to him what his life's journey would be in a life of ministry.
In 1979, Scott attended Rhema Bible Training Center inTulsa, Oklahoma. During this time, God directed him to move to Fort Worth, Texas. In a few weeks, Scott was on staff at KCM, duplicating Brother Copeland's radio tapes. From singing at Believers' Conventions, to producing his own album, to overseeing the television department, Scott has continually sought God's will for his life, and obeyed the directives he heard.
When Missy Johnson was 11, she made Jesus the Lord of her life and was filled with the Holy Spirit at a Kenneth Copeland meeting in Fort Worth. What started with a decision to serve God became a lifelong passion.
Missy has a great love for God's people and desires every believer to come up, come out and come over to God's way of life.She longs for people to see God's wisdom and have His blessings overtake them.
This passion was ignited when she was only 13, when she went to work for Kenneth Copeland Ministries. As Gloria's youngest sister, Missy started out with the simplest of jobs, and faithfully served for 20 years. Her last position was as the Marketing and Publications Director, overseeing the production of the monthly magazines, new product development and purchasing all airtime for the Believer's Voice of Victory international television broadcast.
Scott and Missy married in 1984, and together they faithfully served the Copelands, knowing for years the day would come when they would step out into ministry together.
On August 15, 1999, Scott and Missy celebrated their
first service of BelieversWay Church, Amarillo, and by God's clear
direction are showing the people the "right path" which is relationship
with God.
Ten years later, BelieversWay is a network of three churches - in Amarillo and Midland, Texas.
Ten years later, over 1500 people have been saved and countless lives changed.
It's all about building each generation to reach the next through the power of relationship.
