"I believe 100% that the Bible should inform how we vote." - Ken Fish
"Not everyone is made to be an articulator" - Jeffrey Tyner
"Doing life in the body requires us to be sympathetic with the strengths and weakness of others." - Jeffrey Tyner
"You know, what happened as I was, you know, I was backpacking in the Himalayas, and my buddy and I met this family who was very far out there, and they told in a deficient key, non-hyped way some stories that blew my mind. And a few things occurred to me. First, these people are on the frontier of gospel advancement. Not 24 hours before meeting these people, I had been in a situation where my friend said, this lady in the car with us has never heard of Jesus Christ, completely unaware of the historical existence of Jesus Christ. And that rocked me to realize this whole thing about unreached people, groups, this is real." - Jeffrey Tyner
"This is kind of the set piece that seems as though, in many charismatic circles, there is almost no understanding of church history. To be clear, some charismatics speak of it and teach it. I have always incorporated church history into what I teach and speak on. Randy Clark does this, and many people associating with him are getting educated and becoming more familiar with church history. So I don't think this is a bad thing at all, but I do think it well, let's say it's a steep hill to climb when, for the longest time, the going-in assumption was all you need is the Bible." - Ken Fish
"So the Christian scriptures make it clear that the final revelation comes through the person of Jesus Christ. And the New Testament scriptures, all of them in one way or another, bear witness to Jesus Christ." - Ken Fish

This week, Ken spoke with Melissa Chalhoub, an Egyptian prophetess. Melissa will be one of our speakers at the upcoming IGNITION conference in Nashville, TN, from October 3rd to 5th. Melissa feels blessed to be from Egypt and raised around hungry people. She loves to see people set free and introduce them to the Holy Spirit.
