A Wellspringer on Remnant Radio!

Image
Last Wednesday, a member of Wellspring named Brick Cliff was a guest on Remnant Radio. When Remnant said they wanted to interview Brick, we set him up to record the interview in our podcast studio, which is, of course, the old Remnant Radio studio from back when Michael Rowntree was pastor at Wellspring.  Click the picture above or click here to see the episode titled What Happens When the Miracles Stop? Brick Cliff's Surprising Answer If you haven't heard Brick's story, or if you haven't heard about the ministry Brick runs ( Nation2Nation ), then you need to listen to this episode. Brick's story includes everything from getting pushed down by manipulative Charismatic ministers to seeing hundreds of undeniable healing miracles--to training thousands of pastors across the world--to saving countless lives through simple teaching on sanitation and agriculture--to a death-defying escape from a war-torn country--twice! This episode is really fun for many reasons, but my ...

Deliverance Like I've Never Seen

Image
Michael Miller overseeing the deliverance prayer time at the Well Many of you attended the Well service last Sunday evening. I wasn't there, but Michael Miller taught on breaking curses, followed by a ministry time that saw more deliverance at one time than we've seen at Wellspring. There were around 200 people in attendance, and I've heard that about 60% were visitors seeking deliverance.  I was not there that night. Ironically, I was in New Hampshire, teaching a two-day seminar on Deliverance and Inner-healing. At the same time that Wellspringers were casting out demons and breaking curses in Jesus' name, Miguel Valle and I were up in New Hampshire doing the same.  I've heard a few testimonies that I'd like to share with the church, but as it is in the church world, I want to be careful how much I share. If you have a testimony to share from the Well of the days afterward, send the story to Office@wellspringdfw.org.  Here are the testimonies I've heard so ...

Excitement and Anticipation to Experience God

Image
Prophetic Training If you're reading this on Saturday, I'm in a session at the Remnant Radio Conference , hanging out with other Wellspringers, learning about healing and deliverance, and ministering on the prayer team. There are a number of us at the church who are small group leaders for the Remnant Radio School of Supernatural Ministry . Specifically we lead groups in the Intro to Spiritual Gifts courses. One thing I realized this year is that even though we practice the gift of prophecy every Sunday at Wellspring, and even though I pray for healing and deliverance often, I never see MORE of all that stuff than when I lead these smallgroups.  That's interesting. Why am I seeing more of that in the groups than in my daily life? I believe the answer is that the groups are comprised of people who are sacrificing their time and money to try something new as they pursue the Lord. The people join the small groups with excitement and anticipation to experience God.  What if we ...

Youth Takeover Sunday!?

Image
One of the most meaningful parts of my young Christian life was the youth group that I was a part of. It was not a part of a big-budget church, and it didn’t grow by hype or excitement. I believe God was doing something real in that youth group in the late 90s.  I’ve told the church a few times that I think something is happening in our own youth group at Wellspring. I’ve gotten to hear some of the testimonies of the kids hearing from God. We’ve all seen some of the baptisms, and if you’re at the 11am service on Sundays, you have seen our youth worshipping passionately. Many of you may even have heard that our youth teamed up with some other young believers to put on a youth-planned, youth-led worship event at the end of last school year! This Sunday, I want to highlight the youth group in a special way and give the youth a chance to take a little more ownership in the Sunday service. That is why we hatched a plan called Youth Takeover Sunday. The youth group already does a youth t...

Are You a Slave to Your Algorithm?

Image
It has been a week and a half since Charlie Kirk was killed. Probably, by now you have watched enough videos and read enough articles to process things. On Sunday, last week, I talked openly about my process of dealing with all of this. Therefore, this post is not going to be more of the same. Instead, I want to use this post to talk through something I've heard from numerous people in the last week and I have thought and felt myself.  This week, I heard at least three people say that their social media consumption was beginning to be a problem for them. Several of the people I heard say this are mature Christians who I would be happy to have leading ministries at the church. Nevertheless, they identified what you call "doom scrolling" as a major waste of their time and dulling agent for their spirits.  I know that dulling power all too well. However, in many cases, the effect of all the doom scrolling is much worse than just dulling. I have also encountered people who ar...

One plants, another waters…

Image
In 1 Corinthians 3:6-9, Paul addresses a problem in the Corinthian church where they were becoming little denominations within their church, following one or another leader. Paul famously describes the development of the Corinthian church when he says that he planted, and another leader came later who “watered,” but it was God all along won made the church grow. I don’t know for sure that what I’m about to say is really how it works, but I’ve always had this loose theory about planting and watering: For years, I’ve gone out to do street evangelism, and all along, this one scenario would often play out. One day, I would share the gospel with a person, but they'ed be closed to it. I’d always feel a bit dissatisfied, wishing I could see a person go from not believing to believing in a snap.  Then some other time, a different person would come along who was ready to give their life to Jesus, so I’d lead them in prayer. Ironically. I’d still feel dissatisfied because it seemed like some...
