Whether you are looking for a word of inspiration from Foursquare leaders, or some helpful advice, you've come to the right place.
Dorothy Jean Furlong has served as an ordained Foursquare minister since 1945. With that much history, she has experienced what most of us teach but maybe haven’t seen much of firsthand. She says praying for the sick and the possessed to be delivered doesn’t require showmanship, but staunch obedience to the Lord and to His Word.
Like blind Bartimaeus, who called out for Jesus to heal him, the world is waiting on the church to see if we really move in the power of God. Joe Harrison II, a Foursquare youth pastor, says the Holy Spirit resides in each of us, and it’s time to show the world that we truly believe in the resurrecting power of God.
Foursquare Missions Director Jim Scott believes healing and repentance are part of our Foursquare DNA. He says Jesus preached less about doctrine, theology and apologetics, and more about personal transformation following miraculous encounters with God.
Foursquare Pastor Huey Hudson reminds us that although Jesus, the light of the world, is no longer physically here on Earth, there remains the afterglow of what He accomplished on Calvary. Therefore, he says, there should exist in the church a lingering, pleasant effect of His redemptive work. We are to be the expressed glory and success of what our Lord and Savior purchased on Calvary’s cross—and this includes healing.
Foursquare Pastor Jeremy Pummel believes that church should be a hospital for sinners—not a hotel for saints. Embracing recovery as a way of life has been transformative for the local church Jeremy leads. “Now all types of people walk through our doors,” he says.
