Early Life
Jennifer D. Long was born and raised in Jacksonville, FL where she attended a local holiness church founded by her grandmother Dean Welch Hall. She spent her teenage years being taught and groomed for ministry by her father Bishop Jimmie L. Long, Sr. and mother Joyce D. Long. She is the middle child of two siblings, Felicia James and Jimmie Long, Jr. By age 17, she was diagnosed with cervical cancer. By age 18, she married Johnny A. Kirby with whom she had her first son Johnny J. Kirby. By age 21, Long was divorced and began to feel the call of ministry. In 1998, she began traveling while singing gospel quartet with "The Anointed Sisters of Praise" of Jacksonville, FL. By 1999, she began traveling and lead singing with an all male quartet group known as "The Supreme Stars" when the group broke up due to the death of one of their lead singers. In late 1999, she recorded her first album "Tied Up & Tangled Up" and signed with Sharp Records of Douglasville, GA. She continued to fellowship at her local family church Greater El-Beth-El Holiness Church, under the leadership of her mother's brother, Bishop Lorenzo Hall Sr., until 2003.

In March 2001, she gave birth two her twin sons Jericho J. Burroughs and Joel J. Burroughs. In late 2001, she held her first conference called, "No More Manipulation" focusing on those who were being wounded by the deception of leaders in the church. Then January 2002, she gave birth to her baby boy, Jaleel J. Burroughs. By late 2002, she felt God redirecting her steps to something greater and was called to the Evangelistic realm under the leadership of her father, Bishop J.L. Long, Sr. The ministry started with five members and by 2004, the ministry has grown and Long began traveling and preaching worldwide. In 2005, she independently recorded her second album titled, "On the Road 2 Recover" as a precursor for her personal biography titled, On the Road 2 Recover", which was birth out of the abuse suffered from personal relationships and recovery from physical illnesses for herself and children in January 2011. In May 2011, she founded and incorporated "Virtuous Woman Inc. as the CEO out of a passion for single mothers.

By 2012, Long's ministry began to expand internationally. As God continued to allow her ministry to expand she was prompted to continue working in the community working with prisoners, tutoring youth in the community, and expounding on the Word of God and spreading a message of healing, deliverance, and restoration to audiences nationwide. By 2014, she became the first female pastor to air on the Hearken HSTVN and in 2015, joining the Christ Family Network Radio/TV Broadcast.
