Kenneth Max Copeland (born December 6, 1936) is an American televangelist associated with the charismatic movement. He is the founder of Eagle Mountain International Church Inc. (EMIC), which is based in Tarrant County, Texas.[1] Copeland has also written several books and resources.
He preaches prosperity theology and is part of the Word of Faith movement, which teaches that divine favor is expressed in material and financial blessing, and that giving to ministries unlocks this favor.
His ministry has been controversial, with criticism of his lavish lifestyle, as well as his endorsement of political candidates, and for statements made linking measles vaccines with autism. Early in the COVID-19 pandemic, he claimed that the pandemic had ended or would soon end and that his followers would be healed from the virus. He encouraged followers to continue giving to his ministry, even if they had lost their jobs.
