Eric & Jennifer Gonyon
Charter-class graduates of the River Bible Institute who have served alongside Pastors Rodney and Adonica Howard-Browne since 1998, ministering in more than ninety countries and helping organize the ministry's major soul-winning crusades.
Their story
Pastors Eric and Jennifer Gonyon love the Lord with all their hearts and are deeply thankful for the supernatural intervention, grace, and mercy He has so clearly extended throughout their lives. They recognize that without the hand of God working on their behalf, they would not be where they are today. Neither of them was saved until their mid-twenties, but in 1991, after being filled with the Holy Ghost, an unquenchable desire and holy fire entered their hearts — to passionately pursue God, live for the things of Heaven, and win the lost at any cost.
In 1996, Eric and Jennifer attended Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne's meetings in Lake Charles, Louisiana. Their lives were forever changed, and they became partners with the ministry. When Pastor Rodney announced the opening of the River Bible Institute, the Gonyons enrolled and later graduated as members of its charter class in 1998. That same year, Pastor Rodney invited them to join the ministry staff.
Eric and Jennifer have had the tremendous privilege of traveling alongside Pastors Rodney and Adonica Howard-Browne and, as a result, have ministered in more than ninety countries. They have also helped organize many major soul-winning ventures, including Good News New York, Good News Tampa, the Good News South Africa Crusades, Good News London, Good News Chicago, Celebrate America DC, and the Great Awakening Tours.
The Gonyons remain eternally grateful to Pastors Rodney and Adonica for their love, leadership, and the privilege of serving alongside them. Through every nation, every crusade, and every soul reached, they have remained the same — grateful, faithful, and passionate about people. Their greatest joy is not found in where they have traveled or what they have accomplished, but in seeing lives transformed by the power of God.
“They count it a great honor to help cast the Gospel net across the nations of the world, carrying the fire of revival and winning the lost at any cost.”

Individually
Pastor Eric Gonyon
Pastor Eric is a passionate soul winner, preacher, and Kingdom business leader committed to seeing lives transformed and entire cities shaken by the power of God. For nearly three decades he has served alongside Pastors Rodney and Adonica Howard-Browne, helping organize and lead major soul-winning crusades across the United States and around the world. As an Associate Pastor and Crusade Director for Revival Ministries International, he mobilizes believers to take the Gospel beyond the four walls of the church and equips them to reach the lost within their own realms of influence.
His leadership also extends into the marketplace. Through Kingdom Business Fellowship, Pastor Eric is helping advance a vision to raise up 300 multimillionaires under the leadership and covering of Dr. Rodney Howard-Browne — a growing community of entrepreneurs and business leaders equipped to operate with faith, integrity, and excellence, creating wealth for the establishment of God's covenant and the funding of the end-time harvest.
He also oversees Operation Eden, the ministry's self-sustainable regenerative farming initiative, where participants learn practical principles of food production, stewardship, and biblical self-sufficiency. Whether he is preaching the Gospel, training soul winners, developing Kingdom entrepreneurs, or coordinating the details required to fulfill the vision of Pastors Rodney and Adonica, his goal is the same: to advance the Kingdom of God and empower believers to fulfill the call of God upon their lives.
