About Wendi

A native of Rochester, N.Y., Pastor Wendi Henderson Wyattwas groomed from early childhood for service in the Kingdom of God; and has emerged as one of the most powerful voices in the Church today.
For over thirty years, she has traveled the country and beyond, ministering in song and in the Word, using every gift of God at her disposal to inspire, encourage and provoke all under the sound of her voice to seek God, love Him, worship and serve Him. She is a singer, songwriter, musician, teacher, recording artist, Pastor, author and conference host.
A part of her passion is seen and experienced as she hosts regional gatherings for those who serve in Music ministry on any level, called “The Sound of Unity”: a 3-day gathering where she pours out of her heart, sharing the heart of God for worship leaders and ministers of music, helping them to harness the gift and grace of God in their lives and be most effective in the areas where they serve. Her first book, “Giving Birth to Glory,” (2012), has been a tremendous blessing, inspiring readers throughout the Body of Christ to embrace a life of prayer and intimacy with the Lord, until Glory flows through their lives. Her latest book release, “The Worshipping Church” is a dive into the true meaning of worship and its impact on the church and the world around it.

While she has been writing music for many years, and recording since 1999, it is her single, “No Reason to Fear,” released in 2016 that has had the most profound impact in the Gospel Music Industry so far. With another version of it released in 2017 by internationally known Gospel recording artist, JJ Hairston,churches all over the nation were shouting, “I have no reason to fear! The Lord is my light!” It was for this song that she received the 2020 BMI Trailblazers of Gospel Award for one of the most played songs of the year. However, it would seem she is just getting started, as her most recently released album, “My Heart is Toward You” (2022) was nominated for a GMA Dove Award in 2022. Among the many honors she has received throughout her career and ministry, Pastor Wendi was very humbled when, after having observed her ministry for several years, she was honored and received an Honorary Doctorate of Divinity degree from Cathedral Bible College, Myrtle Beach, S.C. in 2013. So, although she rarely mentions it, she will occasionally answer to “Dr. Wyatt.”
However, you are most likely to hear Pastor Wendi refer to herself as a “rich woman” when speaking of her roles as the wife of her husband, Overseer Gerald Wyatt (of over 30 years), mother of their children, Racquel and Christopher, and serving along with her husband as Co-Pastor of Body of Christ Worship Center, Columbus, Ga, which they founded in 2004. There she serves the ministry, partnering with her husband in teaching, preaching and instruction in the Word, while overseeing the Music & Arts and Women’s Ministries, hosting an annual Women’s Retreat that has continued to grow in attendance since the first gathering in 2008, with women gathering from various parts of the country, finding times of refreshing during life-changing encounters in the presence of the Lord.
In between time, a classically trained vocalist and musician, and lover of music, she still manages to take on private piano and voice students, which she has done over the last 25 years; while also conducting online vocal Master Classes periodically, which she launched in the year 2020.
Ultimately, Pastor Wendi believes that there is a place for which all of mankind longs; that place being the presence of God. Filled with passion and love for Jesus Christ and love for people, it is her heart to see people everywhere find their place in His presence, where they can, as she did, have an encounter with HIM that will change their lives forever… for the better!

Indeed, for the BEST!
