Chris Hayward
Those from among you shall build the old waste places; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach, The Restorer of Streets to Dwell In.
—Isaiah 58:12
For over two decades, Chris Hayward faithfully served as President of Cleansing Stream International (CSI), following 17 years of dedicated pastoral ministry. Under his leadership, CSI became recognized as one of the most far-reaching ministries of inner healing and deliverance, impacting more than a million lives across 36 nations and partnering with over 7,000 churches worldwide.
Chris’s heart has always been guided by the calling of Isaiah 58:12—to be a “repairer of the breach” and a “restorer of the streets to dwell in.” This mission has shaped CSI’s unique, church-centered approach, empowering and equipping thousands across the globe to walk in wholeness and freedom.
In recent years, Chris’s teaching has increasingly reflected the deep compassion and love of the Father. He believes that one of the greatest needs today is for people to truly know the heart of the Father—a “breach” in many lives that, once restored, can lead to profound healing and transformation.
Chris is also the author of two impactful books: God’s Cleansing Stream and The End of Rejection—each offering hope and insight to those navigating personal or spiritual pain.
Currently based in Fort Worth, Texas, Chris is an occasional teacher at Glory of Zion with Chuck Pierce. He and his wife Karen, who have been married for over 54 years, enjoy a rich family life with their three children and six grandchildren. It is our hope that through this ministry, you too will experience the healing, restoration, and deep connection with the Father that Chris so passionately teaches about.
