Allen Hood (M.Div., Asbury Theological Seminary) serves as both the associate director of the International House of Prayer in Kansas City and as the president of the International House of Prayer University under the leadership of Mike Bickle. His highest call is to intercede for the fullness of God to be released in the Church and to labor for the strengthening of the global prayer and missions movement. Proclaiming the glorious splendor of Christ Jesus is His joy and preparing the Body of Christ for His glorious return is his burden. To this end, he is deeply committed to seeing unceasing corporate worship and intercession established in every tribe, tongue, and nation. Allen resides in Kansas City with his wife Rachel and their three sons.

On the hill of Calvary, He took His place as the rightful Ruler of all humankind. On that day, He ascended the steps to the throne. ...From the depths of being despised, rejected, and scorned, our King took a grand stride from death right up to the right hand of God, the Glory, the Majesty of Heaven. Oh, I tell you, this is our King! ...The Man of sorrow has become the Risen Lord.
