Luke Hamilton

Born and raised in the United Kingdom of Great Britain, Luke grew up in the church, but it wasn’t until university that faith became more than familiar - it became personal. That’s where he decided to truly give his life to Jesus.

After earning a degree in Business & Management, Luke went on to complete executive programs at Oxford University and Harvard Business School. This blend of business training and a love for the local church led him to a clear calling: full-time ministry.
Since then, Luke has served in three incredible ministries—Compassion International, Gospel Patrons, and Alpha International. His years with Alpha saw him move to Kenya, where he worked with local churches to develop evangelism strategies (and discovered that Kenyan coffee ruins you for all other coffee).

Luke’s passion is helping Gospel vision come to life through excellent operations, systems, and strategy—not as a means to an end, but as a means to a beginning. He loves seeing vision move off the whiteboard and into real church life, leading to healthy thriving ministries, lives changed, and God glorified.

For the churches first seven years, Luke called Reality Church London home, where he served as a Pastor/Elder and Executive Director before moving to sunny California. He left the umbrella in London and now serves as a Pastor/Elder at Reality Ventura as the Executive Pastor, supporting and equipping staff and ministries with vision and strategy.

Luke lives in East Ventura with his wife Maia, and their two son's Reuben and Markus. He enjoys large quantities of coffee, cooking without recipes (and occasionally regretting it), and all things theatre. Fun fact, Luke was the Entertainment Team Leader at the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games!
