J.D., M.A., D.Min.

Biography
Full Biography
Greg Wallace co-leads The Wallace Group, a marketplace ministry that helps leaders and organizations fulfill their God-given purpose.
His unique emphasis on strengthening culture and working collaboratively helps marketplace and ministry forerunners build structures that can sustain growth without losing spiritual authority. A key part of his work is designing governance, leadership, and organizational frameworks that carry spiritual authority, relational trust, and operational complexity at the same time.
Greg’s marketplace experience includes nearly 15 years performing executive leadership roles in a Fortune 500 company. As chief of staff for its 2500-employee customer service operations division, he successfully led a culture change initiative that increased customer satisfaction and reduced costs per customer.
Greg is an ordained minister, commissioned apostle, and apostolic theologian. His work is grounded in a conviction that the Church must continually examine its practices in light of the teachings, ministry, and example of Jesus.
His ministry leadership includes serving as Chief Operating Officer of Harvest International Ministry, “the premier US-centered apostolic network in the world,” Chief Academic Officer of Wagner University, and administrative pastor of “an apostolic church committed to transforming society through the power of the Holy Spirit.”
He and his wife, Linda, lead a relational community of Kingdom-minded leaders from different parts of the world who are dedicated to transforming their communities. They also provide apostolic oversight to churches and ministries in the U.S., the Caribbean, and Africa.
Whether coaching an executive, advising a ministry, or leading a culture change initiative, Greg’s mission remains consistent: to cultivate leaders, strengthen organizations, reform institutional practices, and advance the Kingdom of God.
Experience
Areas of Focus
Greg’s distinctive approach combines spiritual insight, executive experience, organizational expertise, and practical wisdom to help leaders and organizations fulfill their purpose.
Leadership
Greg is committed to helping the Church strengthen its fundamental identity and purpose as a community of disciples equipped to represent Jesus and advance the Kingdom of God.
He challenges traditional approaches that concentrate ministry primarily in the hands of professional clergy. Instead, he advocates equipping every believer to participate in the ministry of reconciliation, demonstrate Kingdom culture, and fulfill their calling in the environments where God has placed them.
Governance
Greg’s governance and management experience spans the full range of organizational structures — from an executive at a Fortune 500 company, to an apostolic administrator in one of the world’s most visible ministries, to chairing the board of a not-for-profit financial institution.
He is highly sought after by ministry leaders regarding governance matters. Said one such leader: “Not many leaders today are addressing the topic of apostolic administration as comprehensively as Greg Wallace. In fact, his book, The True Apostolic Reformation, may be the most detailed presentation of the topic to date.”
Culture Change
Greg brings together his executive, academic, and ministry experience to serve leaders and organizations navigating growth, change, and transformation.
He is adept at setting things in order in environments where organizational growth has outpaced existing leadership, governance, or operational frameworks. He helps senior leaders navigate complexity, identify underlying organizational challenges, and develop practical solutions without sacrificing the values and relationships that give their organizations meaning.

Perspective
Areas of Thought Leadership
Dr. Greg is viewed as an apostolic theologian for influencing different perspectives in the following areas.
The Kingdom of God
It is new wineskin thinking to realize that the Kingdom of God exists here on earth; that we don’t have to wait until we get to Heaven to experience it. The Seven Mountain Mandate has focused much of the body of Christ on trying to fix earthly systems as a way of bringing about the Kingdom of God.
The Apostolic
It is new wineskin thinking to recognize that the apostolic gift is a contemporary gift; that there are people who operate in the office of the apostle today, just as people operate in the office of the pastor. This thinking has focused our attention — and our debates — on apostles.
Ministry
It is new wineskin thinking to interpret the five grace gifts identified in Ephesians 4:11 as leadership gifts; that effective church and ministry leadership structures contain these “five-fold” gifts.
Local Churches
It’s new wineskin thinking that churches should minister outside of the four walls of the church; that the church should seek to build the community at large, not just its church community.
