Laboring for every nation to hear the love of Christ
So much happened in May, it feels difficult to just share a few highlights about it! We felt like God was telling us it was a time to see with our own eyes fruit of almost 23 years of nonstop prayer. One of our main prayer focuses is the church in this city, and it […]
I took a time lapse of the Solar Eclipse. Watch it above! With a small part of the nation, Kansas City experienced the Solar Eclipse in its totality. We took advantage of the opportunity at Hope City to reach out to our community grilling some hamburgers and watching the eclipse together. I was so amazed […]
Recently, Hope City partnered with other local ministries for our annual car show. Many from all over Kansas City brought their classic cars. We also had a hydraulics competition to see which car could bounce the highest! We served food to all who came and had a fun bouncy house for the kids (that since […]
Last month, I lead worship and preached at the children’s track of our national conference. Over the past year, the Lord has touched my heart deeply with the need to prepare this next generation of children for the coming global crisis. I spoke to the children about God’s call on their life to be messengers […]
On Monday, March 23rd and Tuesday the 24th, following my ministry and family trip to East Texas, I led a team from the Nightwatch here in Kansas City to Wichita, KS. An abortion doctor, George Tiller, was facing charges of illegal abortions. This man has been practicing abortions in Wichita since 1973–the year abortion was […]
This past Good Friday we concluded a 21-day Silent Siege in front of Planned Parenthood in Kansas City. We stood in a silent Solemn Assembly (Joel 2:15) crying out with red tape over out mouths for mercy on our nation. At one point during the day a man drove out of the clinic parking lot […]
In Africa, in Asia, in Europe, in America people are being led in prayer and worship thru television and the internet by teams at the International House of Prayer in Kansas City. Monday, May 29th, we began broadcasting in the window of midnight to six am over GOD TV and 24/7 on our webstream. We […]
On May 7th, 1999, I gathered together a few singers, musicians and worship leaders to launch a prayer meeting in an old trailer. We affectionately referred to it as the “Bethlehem Stable” because we knew that God uses humble beginnings to birth things dear to His heart. By September 19th, 1999, the Lord had brought […]
Last month the IHOP Mission Base had its annual Halloween outreach. We partnered with Solomon’s Porch, a church in downtown Kansas City, to put on the production of a reality based haunted house. After fourteen evenings of ministry we saw around 3200 people walk through the terrifying Haunted house. Out of those 3100 received a […]
This month I joined my covenant brothers and sisters in Washington, DC praying for the ending of abortion and for revival to come to our nation. We began Monday, October 3rd, the opening day of the Supreme Court and our one year anniversary of the Silent Siege, praying in silence for the ending of abortion. […]
