Bayless Conley

Bayless grew up in Southern California where, during his teenage years, he became involved in a lifestyle of drug and alcohol abuse. After years of searching for direction, and a number of near-death experiences, he converted to Christianity when a 12-year-old boy shared the Gospel with him.

Today Bayless Conley pastors Cottonwood Church, a thriving church located in Los Alamitos, California. His television program, Answers with Bayless Conley, airs on television in over 100 nations worldwide.

A frequent speaker for Christian conferences both here and abroad, Bayless is known for his clear, practical presentation of the gospel. His insights mark his proclamation of the bible, and his messages preach the value of bringing the life-changing truth of the gospel into everyday lives.

Bayless and his wife, Janet, are the parents of three grown children. Together they pursue life, family, ministry, and a closer connection to their faith.
