KALLEY HEILIGENTHAL
Kalley Heiligenthal is a pastor’s kid who has always felt a deep call to the Church. She holds a degree in Biblical and Theological Studies with a minor in Spanish from Bethel University in St. Paul, Minnesota. A worship leader, songwriter, pastor, and speaker, she has been writing and releasing music for over a decade, with songs sung in churches around the world. Kalley was part of the Bethel Music collective, beginning with the widely loved song Ever Be.
She spent years training and equipping thousands of students at Bethel’s School of Supernatural Ministry and continues to minister with a heart to see the Church awakened to the fullness of the gospel of Jesus—walking in wholeness, purity, and wholehearted devotion to Him.
Kalley is deeply dedicated to authenticity and carries a passion to help people discover theirs. She believes Jesus is worthy of our true selves—fully known, fully yielded, and wholly given to Him.
A regular contributor on TBN’s Better Together, Kalley currently lives in New Jersey, loves to travel and minister, serves locally in Manhattan, and is wife to Andrew and mom to three daughters. While she’s passionate about many things, cooking isn’t one of them mainly because she’s terrible at it.
