About Dr. Mike Hayes

Founder of Kingdom Business Leaders | Leadership Mentor | Author | Marketplace Influencer

Dr. Mike Hayes is the visionary behind Kingdom Business Leaders (KBL) — a community dedicated to equipping Christian entrepreneurs and executives to lead with faith, wisdom, and impact. With over five decades of leadership across ministry, global platforms, and national policy circles, Mike brings unmatched insight into what it means to lead with Kingdom purpose.

As Founding Pastor of Covenant Church in Dallas, Mike built one of the most ethnically diverse congregations in America, where over 100 nations found community. His lifelong pursuit of unity, reconciliation, and transformational leadership has influenced thousands worldwide.

In 2016, Mike established the Center for National Renewal in Washington, D.C., and later served as a Faith Advisor to the White House, offering guidance on issues ranging from immigration to international peace efforts. He is also a sought-after speaker and author of the international bestseller When God is First, and most recently, Real Happy: Jesus’ Surprising Path to Genuine Joy.

Today, Mike’s greatest mission is to mentor the next generation of Kingdom-minded leaders — helping them integrate their faith with business success and cultural influence. His leadership in KBL is rooted in the belief that business is not separate from ministry — it is ministry.

Mike lives in Texas with his wife Kathy. Together, they’ve raised two children and enjoy life with their six grandchildren. When not coaching leaders or writing, Mike enjoys restoring classic cars, fishing, and meaningful time with family and friends.
