Gina A. McDaniel

Executive Director/Co-Founder (Founder is God)

Specialities: Bachelor's Degree Nursing; Master's Degree in Theology; Certified in Holistic Nursing Care; Certified Life Coach and RN Patient Advocate.

On October 5, 2012, Gina A. McDaniel accepted her divine calling to preach. She spent several years under the leadership of Pastor Dr. Walter Malone, Jr. at Canaan Christian Church in Louisville, Kentucky. Gina remained a faithful member of Canaan for 14 years until she felt led by God to relocate to Florida in February 2016. Until September of 2023, she served as an Elder at Believers Church in Tampa, Florida, under the guidance of Pastor Del Dickerson.

In April 2016, God gave Gina a vision to establish Woman Transformed Ministries. The purpose of this ministry is to uplift, strengthen, and empower women to fulfill their divine purpose. Through obedience to this vision, Gina has witnessed remarkable transformations. Minds have been renewed, chains have been broken, ungodly soul ties have been severed, and intentional living has become a daily commitment. Lasting connections have been formed as women of God come together in prayer and fasting, interceding for one another.

In her professional life, Gina worked as a nurse manager at a Cancer Center, where she exemplified the love of Christ and selflessly cared for the sick. Currently, she serves as the Nursing Manager at Tampa General Hospital in Tampa, Florida. However, Gina's love for Christ extends beyond her career. She has embarked on numerous mission trips to Africa, Ecuador, and Israel, providing both physical and spiritual care to those in need. Those who have had the privilege of knowing Gina personally and serving alongside her in ministry can attest to her deep love for God and her delight in fulfilling His desires. She is known for her generosity, love, kindness, support, and wisdom. Above all, her life is a testimony to God's work. Her banner is love, and she walks in the power and authority of God. Her enthusiasm for praising, worshiping, and adoring God is contagious. Gina embodies the "child-like" faith that the Bible speaks of, trusting God in every aspect of her life. She lives out the Scriptures through her actions, forgiveness, and continuous giving of glory to God.

Gina's love for God extends to her family as well. She is a mother to two adult children, Christian Wells and Eugena Davis, and a proud grandmother to five beautiful grandchildren. She also has five sisters and one brother. When asked about her upbringing, Gina acknowledges the love, wisdom, and discipline instilled in her by her mother. She also pays tribute to her grandmother, who had a significant impact on her life, raising her in the church. Her grandmother exemplified a Christ-like life and taught Gina the essence of loving God and walking in obedience and devotion.

Gina summarizes her purpose with the following quotes:

"Since God has chosen me to be holy and has shown me His love, I must clothe myself with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. I will extend grace to others as Christ does and forgive those who offend me quickly and without malice. Just as the Lord forgave me, I must also forgive others."

"Above all, I will clothe myself in God's love, which unites us in perfect harmony. The peace that comes from Christ will reign in my heart. As a member of the body of Christ, I am called to live in peace and gratitude. I strive to let the message of Christ, in all its richness, fill my life. I teach and counsel others with the wisdom that God provides. With a grateful heart, I sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to God. And in everything I do or say, I represent the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him."

"My ultimate purpose is to follow God's vision and complete the work He has assigned me. When my journey on earth comes to an end, I will declare, according to John 17:4, that I have finished the work God entrusted to me. I will have performed it well and with gladness in my heart."

In December of 2023, Gina was appointed as the Pastor of World Transformed Ministries Church.
