Presiding Bishop Dwight A. Reed was born August 15, 1958 in Okmulgee, OK. Bishop Dwight A. Reed is the son of the Late, Honorable Bishop Jeremiah Reed and the Late, Illustrious Dr. Willie Mae Reed. His father and mother are founders of Christ Apostolic Temple, Inc., Christ Apostolic Temple Inc. Fellowship, J.W. Reed Academy and the Apostolic Oneness Network. His apostolic lineage not only includes his mother and father, but also his grandfather, who was an apostolic deacon and his grandmother, who was an apostolic church mother.

Presiding Bishop Dwight Reed was baptized by his father and pastor, and filled with the Holy Ghost in 1972 at Calvary Church of God in Des Moines, IA. He began his preaching ministry at 18 years of age. In addition, in 1976, Presiding Bishop Dwight Reed graduated from East High School in the top 5% of his class. In 1984, he received an Associate Arts Degree in Southeastern Community College, located in West Burlington, IA. In 1998 he received his Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Theology through the university-accredited JCAA.

Presiding Bishop Dwight Reed was also the assistant to the pastor for nearly 20 years.

In 2017, after being academically and trial prepared during a course of fifty-nine years, he was God appointed by the authority of his father, Presiding Bishop Jeremiah Reed, who placed him as the pastor of Christ Apostolic Temple, Inc. With humility and respected honor, Presiding Bishop Dwight Reed’s present primary goal is to continue to implement the vision and legacy of his late father.

Like many of God’s soldiers, Presiding Bishop Dwight Reed was reluctant to embrace the great responsibilities of His calling. However, God used this period as a time of training, during which he generated the necessary life experiences that would prove invaluable to his present ministry.

He is an exemplary son as he emulates with the same fiery torch and zeal that resided in his father. Presiding Bishop Dwight Reed’s ministry presently focuses on recovery, repair and restoration of the souls of men, women, children, and ministries and councils of the Apostolic Faith to show that the Apostolic Faith will be great again!
