God Encounters - series - 05-26-19 (05-03-22)

So folks can hear the different stories and connect with different ministries that are available. About John… I was born in Oakland, California, but raised mostly in Oregon. I grew up knowing about God, praying maintenance prayers and going to church when I was desperate, but I fully gave my heart to him in my early 20s. Before I met Amy, I had been involved in different aspects of prophetic ministry. Everything from evangelism on the streets of L.A. Volunteering at The L.A. Dream Center, to teaching and pastoring in Oregon. My mentor, Earnest Soady, who lives in the Los Angeles area, was good friends with Jack Coe, William Branning, Oral Roberts, and Paul Cain. Earnest has lived by faith for over 50 years and has seen amazing miracles! I am truly grateful for the lessons he taught me; especially following the leadings and promptings of the Holy Spirit. When I met Amy it seemed that everything accelerated for both us. We took off like a rocket walking out the process of truly becoming one with Christ and ministering in many different capacities in the prophetic. About Amy… Born and raised in Oregon, I grew up on an 80 acre horse ranch in Oregon City, and enjoyed riding horses. I was born into a Christian home, but hungered for a personal relationship with God in my teens. I learned to cultivate a relationship with Him through journaling His words of wisdom to me. Out of my journals came my first book in 2013 called, “Papa’s Living Room”. God told me He wanted His people to know more of what He sounded like. Hence, He asked me to publish the wisdom, advice and analogies He’d been teaching me over the years. My grammar may not be the best, but I wanted to be obedient to what He was asking. As far as ministry goes, I’ve been involved with worship teams, youth pastoring, prophetic teams, starting new church works, etc. My niche’ apart from writing is also in painting Prophetic art, mainly oil. You can view some of my pieces on this site. Combined in all the above, I absolutely love identifying peoples gifts and callings and helping them to align with it. Along with that, I enjoy helping people pull out their prophetic words and map out the direction, preparation and identity God has called them to. And most of all, Connect with God’s heart and what He’s teaching them on their journey.
