What is the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR)? And what does it have to do with conservative political power in the United States and abroad? Leah Payne and Caleb Maskell join Mark Labberton for a deep dive into the emergence and impact of the New Apostolic Reformation—a loosely affiliated global network blending Pentecostal Christian spirituality, charismatic authority, and political ambition. With their combined pastoral experience and scholarly expertise, Payne and Maskell chart the historical, theological, and sociopolitical roots of this Pentecostal movement—from Azusa Street and Latter Rain revivals to modern dominion theology and global evangelicalism. They distinguish the New Apostolic Reformation from the broader Pentecostal and charismatic traditions, and explore the popular appeal, theological complexity, and political volatility of the New Apostolic Reformation. Episode Highlights “Isn't this just conservative political activism with tongues and prophecy and dominion?” “At no point in time in the history of these United States … have Protestants not been interested in having a great deal of influence over public life.” “You can be super nationalistic in Guatemala, in Brazil, in India, and in the United States. … It is a portable form of nationalism.” “They are not moved by appeals to American democracy or American exceptionalism because they have in their mind the end times and the nation of Israel.” “Charismatics and Pentecostals, unlike other forms of American Protestantism … do not have a theological value for democracy.” Main Themes Pentecostalism's history and global influence Charismatic Christianity versus Pentecostalism Defining and explaining the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) C. Peter Wagner, Lance Hall, and Seven Mountain Mandate Dominion theology, Christian nationalism, and the religious Right Pentecostals and Trump politics Zionism in charismatic theology Vineyard movement, worship music, and intimacy with God Linked Media References About Vineyard USA God Gave Rock and Roll to You: A History of Contemporary Christian Music by Leah Payne The New Apostolic Churches by C.

Seymour Marked by interracial desegregated worship and spiritual “fireworks” like tongues and prophecy Mystical experiences of God Desegregation and physically touching one another in acts of miraculous healing The Azusa Street Revival (1906) identified as a global catalyst for Assemblies of God denomination There is no founding theological figure, unlike Luther or Calvin Caleb Maskell emphasizes Pentecostalism's roots in “a founding set of experiences,” not a founding theological figure “Limits to what makes a church” Lack of ecclesiological clarity leaves Pentecostalism open to both renewal and fragmentation Leah highlights Pentecostalism as “a shared experience … a shared series of practices.” “Holy Rollers” and being “slain in the Spirit” “A different way of knowing” “Christians are made through an encounter with Jesus.” The global “charismatic movement” and how it has had cross-denominational Influence “Charismatic” was a mid-twentieth-century term for Spirit-led practices arising within mainline Protestant and Roman Catholic traditions Charismatic means “gifted” or “being given gifts” “‘Charismatic' has typically been a more inclusive word than ‘Pentecostal.'” Emphasis on personal spiritual gifts and intimate worship styles “They are not respecters of institutions.” Figures like Oral Roberts and Amy Semple McPherson were “too big” for denominational constraints “Too-bigness” as driven by both an over-inflated ego and spiritual mysticism Frederick Buechner: “The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet.” Spellbound, by Molly Worthen (see Conversing episode 212) What are the origins and key ideas of the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR)? New Apostolic Reformation: “a form of institutionalized charismatic identity that builds on grassroots consensus.” “NAR” coined by C. Peter Wagner at Fuller Seminary in the 1990s Wagner promoted post-denominationalism and “reality-based” church governance centred on individual charismatic gifts Emerged from a “larger soup” of charismatic ideas—often practiced before being systematized. Closely tied to the “Seven Mountain Mandate”: that Christians should influence key societal sectors—family, religion, education, media, entertainment, business, and government The role of dominion theology and political alignment “The convergence of egos, the convergence of ethos … is a natural thing to see emerging.” “Dominion is really just two or three logical steps from an obsession with cultural relevance.” Payne sees dominionism as a Pentecostal-flavoured version of a broader conservative political strategy. “Charismatics and Pentecostals are everywhere … so we should expect them on the far right.” Many deny the NAR label even as they operate in its mode. ”When Bob Dylan's in your church, suddenly your church is relevant, whether you like it or not.” Defining “Dominionism” “Dominion is really just two or three logical steps from an obsession with cultural relevance. Cultural relevance says church should fit—not prophetically, but should fit all but seamlessly—into modes of culture that people are already in.” What are the “Seven Mountains of Culture”?  Family, religion, education, media, entertainment, business, and government—”the world would go better if Christians were in charge of each of those arenas.” “At no point in time in the history of these United States and the history of European settlers in the new world have Protestants not been interested in having a great deal of influence over public life.” Trump, Zionism, and global Pentecostal nationalism Christian nationalism versus religious Right “They are not moved by appeals to American democracy. … They think the nation of Israel is the nation of all nations.” “Isn't this just conservative political activism with tongues and prophecy and dominion?” Anti-institutional and anti-structural How Trump seeks power and ego affirmation Christian theocratic rule? ”It may simply be a part of what it is to be a Christian is to say, at some level, within the spheres that I'm given authority in, I ought to have the right kind of influence, whatever it is.” “ I think what's scary about the moment that we're in right now is in fact the chaos.” A book about Donald Trump—God's Chaos Candidate, by Lance Wall ”The beliefs in divine prophecy are so widespread that they transcend partisanship.” Black Pentecostalism: immune to the charms of Trump and populist conservatives Trump's Zionist overtures strategically captured charismatic loyalty The rise of global Pentecostal nationalism in countries like India, Brazil, and Guatemala parallels US patterns. “They don't actually care long-term about American democracy.” “They are not moved by appeals to American democracy or American exceptionalism because they have in their mind the end times and the nation of Israel.” Prosperity gospel Dominionism and the Roman Catholic “doctrine of discovery” The gospel of Christ as “sorting power” “It is a portable form of nationalism.” Concerns about power, order, and eschatology Mark Labberton reflects on Fuller Seminary's controversial role in NAR's intellectual development. Payne critiques the equation of widespread Pentecostal practices with far-right dominionism. “What's scary … is the chaos. And a number of people associated with NAR have celebrated that.” NAR theology often prioritizes divine chaos over institutional order. Warnings against super-biblical apostolic authority and spiritual authoritarianism. Pentecostalism beyond politics “There's a vivid essentialism—make everything great and all the nations will gather.” Vineyard worship as a counterweight to dominionism—emphasizing intimacy and mystical union with Christ. “That emphasis on Jesus as a friend … is a really beautiful image of God.” Vineyard music helped export a gentle, intimate charismatic spirituality.

Have you ever heard the term New Apostolic Reformation or NAR? Over the last 20 years or so, it has become the predominant form of false doctrine in Protestant American evangelicalism, and you've probably encountered it in some way, even if you don't know what it's called. Today, we’re taking a look at the NAR’s […]

3:17 - What proof do we have that Jesus is sinless? / 9:06 - How can I help my family with leaving the 7th Day Adventist church? / 21:31 - Did Jesus lay down his life, or did God raise him up? / 26:24 - How can I talk to a friend who's enamored with the New Apostolic Reformation? / 37:29 - Followup on the 7th Day church.

With the rising pressure on self-proclaiming apostles and prophets in exposing the New Apostolic Reformation, claims from said leaders are coming out that they do not know what the NAR is. However, they are quick to tell their followers all about it, calling it propaganda and an assault on the restoration of the five fold ministry. Additionally, alleged prophetic words have been released concerning the rise of the accuser of the brethren amidst spiritual leaders. What are we to make of this? Join me as we look at Jeremiah Johnson and his latest video exposing the NAR, and we also consider his prophetic word of the rise of fault finding demons and the accuser of the brethren.

In tonight’s podcast, we expose the dangerous doctrine of the N.A.R. or “New Apostolic Reformation” movement that continues to gain momentum and has even infiltrated the White House.

What is a worldview, and how does it shape everything you believe and do? This week, Dr. Brady Blevins, Senior Apologist at Watchman Fellowship, joins Frank to talk about his brand new course, 'Conversations with the Faiths: Worldviews', which explores the four major groups of worldviews and equips Christians to evangelize those caught in false ideologies and protect Christian churches against modern heresy. In this episode, Frank and Brady will tackle questions like:What are the four major worldviews and why is understanding their differences so important?What's the best approach when someone in your life adopts a worldview that isn't true?Which worldview is taking the lead in our culture today?How do cults and movements like Word of Faith, NAR (the New Apostolic Reformation), and Progressive Christianity subtly twist Scripture and infiltrate the Church?What are the main characteristics of a cult and how do the four functions of math help us spot cults and other false worldviews?What is a great parenting tool that can help kids become more discerning without sounding preachy?Frank and Brady also examine how some of today's most popular teachings deviate from biblical Christianity and you'll hear real-world examples of false teachers and movements that are shaping minds inside and outside the Church. If you want to be equipped to defend truth and help others find it, be sure to check out Brady's new course: 'Conversations with the Faiths: Worldviews'!Resources mentioned during the episode:Brady's website: https://www.watchman.org/Brady's course: https://bit.ly/42It8kWBrave Books: https://bravebooks.us/

Young and impressionable, Susan was drawn to the creative and spiritual environment of a church called the International House of Prayer in Kansas City (IHOPKC). She was soon courted by leadership and then isolated her through "special mentoring," with claims that God revealed the IHOP leaders her unique spiritual destiny. The philosophy its pastor, Mike Bickle, and ultimately the New Apostolic Reformation made questioning leadership equivalent to questioning God himself. Unlike Bickle, John Wimber of The Vineyard Movement established accountability structures and rejected many NAR excesses. Susan finally begins to question the teachings. Part One of Two.Paul Martin is a former pastor who works as a human rights advocate. He holds undergraduate and graduate degrees in philosophy from UCLA and Talbot School of Theology at Biola University.The Wolves is for those interested in religion, Jesus, or the psychology around power abuse. It is also for survivors of trauma, including spiritual abuse. Covering current cases of abuse in the church today, The Wolves will highlight the sinister paradox of those who display sincerity, conviction, and knowledge and who can even claim to hear the very voice of God himself, YET at the very same time abuse they claim to love.For information, visit www.thewolvespodcast.comContact Paul Martin at paul@paulmartin.org

The doctrine of sonship is a prominent teaching within the New Apostolic Reformation. One of the teachings surrounding this belief is that spiritual sons and daughters are to honor and to exhibit the spiritual DNA of their spiritual father/mother. Some leaders will even express that they should be obeyed, or sons and daughters run the risk of being illegitimate. Join me as we consider the teaching of sonship in light of Scripture.

C. Peter Wagner was the genius behind the NAR - the New Apostolic Reformation. Although he may have had good intentions, he got a ball rolling that is still leaving destruction in its wake.

In this episode, we explore the rising spiritual awakening sweeping across the nation, with a surprising resurgence in religious affiliation, particularly among young men. The decline in church attendance is reversing and even Hollywood celebrities and political figures are embracing faith. We dive into the transformative stories of individuals like Nicole Shanahan and discuss the growing influence of movements like the New Apostolic Reformation. As America experiences a spiritual shift, we examine the tension it creates with the secular left and how this resurgence is challenging the secularization of politics and society.

adrienne and Autumn welcome Roan Boucher to explore the complex themes of Christian nationalism and its implications for contemporary social justice movements. Roan schools us on the historical context of the movement, tracing its origins back to the 1970s and its response to civil rights movements. The discussion also highlights the role of Christian Zionism and the New Apostolic Reformation in shaping contemporary political landscapes, emphasizing the need to understand these movements seriously and their impact on liberation efforts.

If the Pentecostal-Charismatic movement is indeed a movement of the Holy Spirit, shouldn't its founders and leaders be marked by holiness? In this eye-opening presentation, Justin Peters explores the movement's historical roots and examines the lives of its most revered figures—often called "God's Generals."

This episode lands at a crucial point of religiopolitical history, as we talk about all things New Apostolic Reformation. Academic Jon Sawyer joins me as we talk about some juicy, heavy hitting topics - conspiratorial demonology, weaponisation of testimony culture, self-invisible LGBT Christians, sexual orientation and gender identity change efforts, load language inside Evangelicalism, white supremacy and indoctrination techniques used in Christian Nationalism. I mean...that about covers whats wrong in the world, doesn't it?  You really should look at the rest of Jon's work at https://www.jonsawyer.org/ and of course his contribution to Dr Lucas Wilsons, book "Shame Sex Attraction." (Find it here https://amzn.asia/d/5Et3wfT)  Its a vital time in history to be informed, especially if you are in a Westernised nation where the backlash against progress, and the decrying of "Wokeism" (ie. Empathy and respect for others) threatens a Christian Nationalist uprising masked as resurging religiopolitial conservatism. This episode, Blake Chastains episode (and book), and Lukes episode (and book) need to be top of your to-listen lists. And I'm not often demanding like that. 

Beware those who call themselves new apostles and prophets. One of the largest movements in Christianity today, the New Apostolic Reformation, is twisting the truth of scripture in pursuit of power and a kingdom of their own.

With the New Year comes new and fresh prophetic words from those who profess to be prophets and to hear from God. One individual held a prophetic presbytery last year, proclaiming numerous words of the Lord. This year, the same individual sat down with a professing prophet, and they began to release what 2025 held. One of the words released was a True Apostolic Reformation. Join me as we consider the prophetic words from Mike Signorelli from 2024 and 2025, and we consider how this is a repackaging of the New Apostolic Reformation.

In this chapter of Cult Chronicles, we learn about the New Apostolic Reformation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C._Peter_Wagner   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Apostolic_Reformation   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fp8naJsgNA   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXDq59eqtwg   https://www.gotquestions.org/New-Apostolic-Reformation.html   https://www.npr.org/2011/10/03/140946482/apostolic-leader-weighs-religions-role-in-politics

The New Apostolic Reformation is a fast-growing movement that rests upon the belief that there are modern-day apostles and prophets with governing authority. Additionally, there are other beliefs and practices associated with this movement, such as territorial spiritual warfare. Though some will deny that this movement exists, many can attest to the contrary. Join me in this discussion with Holly Pivec, Doug Geivett, and Mike Beckett as we talk about the NAR and the practice of territorial spiritual warfare.

In 2017, like many financial journalists, Gareth Gore went to Spain to report on the sudden collapse of the global bank, Banco Popular. And, like every other reporter, he missed the real story. That is, until he returned to Spain two years later. As he recalls, "It was sheer luck, ...that I picked up a newspaper and saw that there was this scramble from people to get their money back. And it was only when I discovered some of the more sinister links later on that it became a wider story about Opus Dei rather than the bank."In his new book, "Opus: The Cult of Dark Money, Human Trafficking and Right-Wing Conspiracy Inside the Catholic Church" (Simon & Schuster) Gore explains how one man turned his "vision" from God into a mission to "reChristianize the world," and how the organization he created, with its bizarre rites and structure, first infiltrated Spanish society with the help of the country's dictator Francisco Franco, won the imprimatur of the Vatican, became a financial powerhouse, and today, wields influence in the halls of the United States Congress and Supreme Court.If you thought the New Apostolic Reformation and Ziklag were disturbing, you will not be assuaged by Gore's revelations. Still, knowledge is power. Come November 5, we have the opportunity to reject the theocratization of America. #voteSupport the showThanks for listening!

Lavin takes her subjects seriously, but not uncritically, and especially focuses on the wrecked and ruined lives left in the wake of conservative evangelicalism's more conspiratorial and authoritarian elements, from the Satanic Panic to James Dobson's parenting manual on how to beat a "strong-willed child" into compliance. Along the way, they talk about the triumph of QAnon, End Times theology, the importance of the New Apostolic Reformation, and more—all with an eye toward how these religious views and practices help explain conservative evangelicals' overwhelming support for Donald Trump.Sources:Talia Lavin, Wild Faith: How the Christian Right Is Taking Over America(2024)— Culture Warlords: My Journey Into the Dark Web of White Supremacy (2020)— "The Sword and the Sandwich"Listen again:"The Prayers and Prophecies of Pat Robertson," Know Your Enemy, July 17, 2023

In this episode of Wake Up Look Up, pastor Zach tackles the provocative question: "Are we terrorists?" Prompted by a recent article portraying a subset of Christians as radical threats, Zach delves into the New Apostolic Reformation and its politically charged "Courage Tour." He clarifies that this group represents a tiny fraction of the larger Christian community, emphasizing that most Christians prioritize love, neighborliness, and faith over political allegiances. Zach calls out media mischaracterizations, reaffirming that Christians are driven by a commitment to the gospel rather than to any political agenda.

A small church in a small town in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, has been flexing its political muscle and building an outsized reputation for blurring the line between church and state. Pastor Don Lamb wants his congregants to be engaged in spiritual warfare and not be “head-in-the-sand, Jesus-loves-you kind of Christians,” especially when it comes to the local school board. To Lamb, this is not a Christian takeover. Yet his church is influenced by an elusive, hard-to-pin-down movement whose followers believe that Christians are called to control the government and that former President Donald Trump was chosen by God. It's called the New Apostolic Reformation, and it's nothing like the culture war–fueled Moral Majority of yesteryear. There are prophets and apostles, and a spiritual war is underway, not just in Pennsylvania. To win, the church has to do more than just preach the gospel; it has to get political.This week, Reveal's Najib Aminy and Mother Jones reporter Kiera Butler explain what the New Apostolic Reformation is and what happens when it seeps into small-town churches like Lamb's.  Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at Revealnews.org/newsletter Connect with us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram

The New Apostolic Reformation is a movement that is leading people astray. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar discuss how this movement emphasizes personal experiences over scripture, mysticism over doctrine, and elevates modern-day apostles above the Bible. The movement's founder believed the local church should be under the authority of apostles rather than God's Word. However, the era of apostles has passed, and constantly seeking after signs misleads believers. The NAR's emphasis on miracles and healing often lures immature Christians away from the core message of the gospel.The NAR promotes cultural dominance, contradicting Jesus' teachings of humility and sacrifice. Jesus chose the cross over earthly power, calling His followers to do the same. While Christians should influence society, this influence must come through service and humility, not through seeking power. The NAR's emphasis on dominance distorts the gospel and leads believers away from Christ. The NAR gained significant influence in politics and they blurred the lines between God's kingdom and human governments, adding confusion to the church's role in society. This blending of faith with political power undermines the gospel's focus on Christ alone.Believers are often drawn to the NAR because of its promises of miracles and personal power. The allure controlling one's destiny is enticing, but it leads to false teachings that center on human desires rather than God's truth. False apostles attract crowds by appearing close to God, yet their message is man-centered. This drift from the gospel prioritizes personal gain and worldly influence over spiritual truth. This creates opportunities for false conversions by promoting a watered-down gospel that lacks a call for repentance. Believers must be discerning, ensuring their leaders emphasize Scripture over personal experience and that their focus remains on the Bible. If a church prioritizes emotions and experiences over God's Word, it reflects unhealthy doctrine.Ultimately, the NAR's focus on power and influence leads believers away from the gospel. Its emphasis on experiences leaves many feeling inadequate when they don't manifest spiritual gifts like speaking in tongues, contradicting the promises of the Holy Spirit. Rather than seeking authority through personal power, believers should repent and return to the authority of Scripture, trusting God's Word as their guide.Send us a text Thanks for listening!

Send us a textThe conversation explores the rise of Christian nationalism and the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) in American politics. The guest, Matthew Taylor, discusses the theological and social shifts within the religious right, the influence of charismatic Christianity, and the role of violence in their beliefs. The conversation also delves into the four quadrant model of American Christianity and the impact of charismatic leaders like Paula White. The chapter titles could include 'The Rise of Christian Nationalism', 'Understanding the New Apostolic Reformation', 'The Theology of Violence', and 'The Paradox of Empowering Women'. The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) movement, led by figures like C. Peter Wagner, has had a significant impact on American Christianity and politics. The NAR combines charismatic worship music with political activism, using worship as a way to insert religion into public debates. This worship music industrial complex has enculturated the far right of America to see themselves as the true worshipers of God, standing against the idolatry and demonic realm that surrounds them. The NAR movement is on the upswing, with its ideas becoming more mainstream among American evangelicals. It has also infiltrated the militia movement and white nationalist scripts.Buy the book: https://a.co/d/5yUwxSeGuest Bio:Matthew D.

Throughout his recent presidential campaigns, former President Trump has garnered widespread conservative Evangelical support and the endorsement of powerful televangelists such as Paula White-Cain. André Gagné, Professor of Theology at Concordia University, explains the New Apostolic Reformation and its ties to the Neo-Charismatic Pentecostal movement, which constitutes the largest growing sector of Christianity both globally and within the United States. In the U.S., Neo-Charismatic Christianity has been largely hijacked by New Apostolic Reformation firebrand Trump supporters who push a radical conservative agenda.

Join us on the next episode of The Remnant Radio as we critically examine C. Peter Wagner's controversial teaching on "Strategic Spiritual Warfare." Wagner claims that God has provided the church with a new "Rhema module" essential for these last days. But is it truly biblical? Wagner, a prominent figure in the New Apostolic Reformation, has been a leading advocate for this approach to spiritual warfare. But the big question remains: Is this practice truly biblical?In this episode, we will explore:-The Foundations of Strategic Spiritual Warfare: What does C. Peter Wagner propose, and how has his approach shaped contemporary views on spiritual warfare?-Key Concepts and Practices: We'll break down the main elements of Wagner's strategy, including territorial spirits, prayer walking, and the use of prophetic acts.-Biblical Analysis: How do these practices align with Scripture? We'll delve into biblical texts and contexts to discern whether strategic spiritual warfare holds up under theological scrutiny.-Historical and Theological Perspectives: Comparing Wagner's teachings with traditional Christian doctrines and the historical understanding of spiritual warfare.-Practical Implications: What are the potential benefits and dangers of adopting Wagner's approach? How should Christians engage in spiritual warfare in a way that is grounded in biblical truth?We'll also address questions such as:    -Does the Bible support the idea of engaging with territorial spirits?    - How did Jesus and the apostles approach spiritual warfare?    -What role should prayer and intercession play in our battle against spiritual forces of darkness?    - Is prayer walking, spiritual mapping, and "binding the strong man" the new "Rhema module" of spiritual warfare?  Tune in as we offer a balanced and thorough review of strategic spiritual warfare, helping you navigate this complex and often controversial topic.
