In 1996, he received his Doctorate in Ministry of Sacred Music. He was sent out from the church as an ambassador to the world to help churches develop and find the balance between worship and the Word. So shortly afterwards, he was named Ambassador of Music at Jubilee Christian Center. Churches not only wanted him to come lead praise and worship, but also to help them develop their music departments. In 1993, after the two Integrity recordings, he started receiving invitations from all over the world. When he became music pastor, he became the shepherd over the entire music department at Jubilee Christian Center. As worship leader, his sole focus was leading worship service. Not long after that, in 1987, he was ordained and installed as Music Pastor. He started out as a worship leader at Jubilee Christian Center in San Jose, California. He began working in full-time ministry in 1985. He was signed to Integrity Music, but is no longer recording for them. Welcome Home produced by Tom Brooks was also critically acclaimed, becoming Billboard's Top contemporary worship music album, and winning a Gospel Music Association Dove Award for "Praise and Worship Album" in 1997. His critical success came in 1992 when Lift Him Up became the fastest selling worship album to that point. He was originally with a group called The Mellow Fellows, but family issues caused him to leave the group. His music career began following time spent in the United States Air Force. He holds several degrees, including a music degree from Alameda College, a Master of Divinity from Faith Bible College, and a Doctorate of Ministry in Sacred music from Friends International Christian University. Although Kenoly himself only plays on one of his recordings, he leads comfortably with his voice and is always backed up by musicians and a large choir. His musical style is one of jubilant praise and individual excellence on musical instruments. Ron Kenoly (born December 6, 1944) is an American Christian worship leader, singer, and songwriter whose expressed mission is "to create an environment for the manifest presence of God".
