Originally from Quebec, Pastor Joël grew up in a Christian home and made his profession of faith around the age of 4. He spent his youth involved in his local church, where he began teaching « Sunday School » from the age of 12 until he was 18. He also traveled as a Southern Gospel soloist at special events during that same time. In 1999, he recorded a debut album called « Let Him be your Refuge » which enabled him to travel in Canada and the United States for four and a half years. Pastor Joël has ministered in North America, the West Indies, Europe, Africa and in Australia.

In 2003, he was invited to be a guest on « Lifeline », produced at that time by the Miracle Channel based out of Lethbridge, Alberta. Immediately after the recording of this first program, he and his family were invited to join that national media team. The « Lifeline » program was aired on the Miracle Channel (Canada), Crossroads TV (Canada), Vision TV (Canada), NRB Channel (United States) and the Australian Christian Channel (Australia).

It was in September of 2003 that the Spinks family left Quebec to relocate to Alberta. For four years, Pastor Joël served as an associate pastor at the Miracle Channel church. He also taught leadership classes at the Miracle Channel School of TV Ministry. In addition, he hosted the bilingual « Seeds of Faith » daily devotional as well as contributed to the « Lifeline » television program, until his return to eastern Canada in September of 2007. Pastor Joël then appeared on « From the River » (broadcasted on the Miracle Channel, CTS, Vision TV and Cornerstone TV – USA). Following some ministerial trips in the Canadian Arctic, he then returned with his family to Quebec to establish Quebec Victory Church in September of 2008. It was in Quebec, at « Ministère Enseignemoi », that he resumed his television ministry, hosting « Vie de Foi » (Life of Faith) from 2015-2020. Today, he currently hosts the weekly « LIVE de Guérison » (Healing LIVE program) and « LIVE de Victoire » (Victory LIVE), as well as « Parole de Foi » (The Joël Spinks FAITH Broadcast – in French and in English), all programs produced by Victory Church.

Pastor Joël Spinks obtained a ministerial license in 2002, and was then ordained in 2003.
