The American Prophetic Movement is in the midst of a crisis. The impact is devastating on churches, organizations, Christian mission, and the nation. Rev. CJ Conner believes reclaiming the office of Prophet and returning to the true nature of biblical prophecy is essential for the future and health of the American Church. Conner examines the proliferation of modern day prophets and compares them to the standard bearers of the Bible in a bid to show why reform of the prophetic movement has never been more urgent.

A living lost soul in this book can be a life from the old life to a born-again new life in Jesus. This book is my life of darkness without Jesus, but when Jesus touched me, I was free to worship and praise him for giving his life for me. I was that person walking in the darkness, and now have seen this great light (Isaiah 9:2). This light has shone; do you want this? It's a great gift from a Holy King who loves like nobody can touch his love. Love is his character; look what he did for me; he will do it for you too.

For much of American history, evangelicalism was aligned with progressive political causes: nineteenth-century evangelicals fought for the abolition of slavery, universal suffrage, and public education. But contemporary conservative activists have defaulted on this majestic legacy, embracing instead an agenda virtually indistinguishable from the Republican Party platform.

Scholars and popular authors regularly claim that Christianity, at least orthodox Christianity, has fostered oppression and intolerance. A common narrative is that liberty and equality have been advanced primarily when America's leaders embrace progressive manifestations of religion or reject faith altogether. This book demonstrates that Christianity is responsible for advancing liberty and equality for all citizens.

This book may be controversial to the church establishment, or even banned by your local church, because we expose the majority of American churches out there as "sellouts," and on the take of the government. If one of the ultimate goals for a martial arts ministry is to disciple believers in the faith, this reality has to be exposed to be successful at starting a martial arts ministry. The man of God who has been called to start a martial arts ministry, has to understand the serious nature of his responsibilities, and move as the spirit of God leads.

Heavenly Father, help bring this revelation and this understanding into the hearts and minds of each of the purple belt students here within this martial arts ministry.

Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove grew up in the Bible Belt in the American South as a faithful church-going Christian. But he gradually came to realize that the gospel his Christianity proclaimed was not good news for everybody. The same Christianity that sang, "Amazing grace, how sweet the sound" also perpetuated racial injustice and white supremacy in the name of Jesus. His Christianity, he discovered, was the religion of the slaveholder. Just as Reconstruction after the Civil War worked to repair a desperately broken society, compromised Christianity requires a spiritual reconstruction.
