Pastor Dexter Hinkson was born in San Fernando, Trinidad. When he was 5 years of age his parents immigrated to Barrie Ontario, where he spent most of his adolescent to early twenties.

 

After high school, he attended Eastern Pentecostal Bible College, while doing local youth outreach in the downtown core of Peterborough.
