A 1976 honors graduate of [[Michigan State University]], Kresta has done graduate work in theology at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit and Ashland Theological Seminary.
In 1986, Kresta began pastoring Shalom Ministry in Taylor, MI. He became well known in the Detroit area for his program, “Talk from the Heart,” one of the top-rated Christian talk shows during the 1980s and 90s on WMUZ. When he began the program, Al was a Protestant pastor. The questions forced upon him as pastor, however, led him to revert to the Catholic Church of his upbringing. His profound personal conversion to Christ and reversion to the Catholic Church is told in the best-selling anthology "Surprised By Truth".{{cite news|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9oaK2SRqFvk|title=Al Kresta: A Non-denominational Minister Who Became A Catholic - The Journey Home (10-1-2007)|date=1 October 2007}}
