Rev. Dr. Hicks developed a model combining faith and personal money management as her Doctor of Ministry Project entitled “Blow The Trumpet in Zion: Sound an Alarm” A Community-Based Ministry For Financial Literacy. The project emphasizes a biblical understanding of God’s economy, and our responsibility to end all forms of master-slave relationships and be faithful to God.   To that end, many have experienced changed lives through learning and living as faithful managers of the resources that God has entrusted to them.  Rev. Hicks teaches that believers should exemplify faithfulness to God in every area of life, including their finances.   She has authored a book entitled “Establishing and Building Upon a Solid and a Firm Foundation.”  This book is written as a handbook for every believer who takes seriously the command of Jesus “to make disciples.”  Knowing Jesus and His word has to be foundational for every believer, otherwise; there is no basis for spiritual growth.  

Rev. Dr. Hicks is married to W.A. Hicks and they have two daughters.  She loves ministering to all people, and is convinced that all things are possible with God.  She hosts the annual “Spirit-Filled Conference” and Prayer Retreats during the year as well as other conferences and seminars that encourage spiritual growth through a love relationship with Jesus Christ.
