HEARING THE VOICE OF GOD NORTHWEST


Jack Deere & James Ryle
Oct 23, 1997

"HEARING THE VOICE OF GOD" NORTHWEST

With Jack Deere & James Ryle

Note from Steve Shultz, Moderator of THE PROPHETIC WORD LIST: I am going to break my own rule and send out an "email brochure" of a conference entitled "Hearing the Voice of God" to be held November 6-8 in Portland. This is being sponsored by the Vineyard Christian Fellowship of Vancouver, Washington. Jack Deere (who wrote: "Surprised by the Voice of God")and James Ryle (of Promise Keepers--and author of "Hippo in the Garden")are the Speakers.

Since this is my own fellowship, I thought I could get away with a little publicity towards what I believe will be an awesome conference. There seems to be signs in Portland (as well as a number of prophetic words) that God is on the move here, even this year---and we will see Him move soon in a rather profound way in the Portland/Vancouver metro area. Please come if you can. The application form is attached below.

ABOUT THE SPEAKERS

JACK DEERE

Jack Deere was converted to Christ when he was seventeen years old through the prayers and witness of a friend. After graduating from Texas Christian University with a B.A. in Philosophy, Jack attended Dallas Theological Seminary where he received a Th.M and Th.D.

During the mid 70's through the mid 80's Jack taught at Dallas Theological Seminary, started a Bible church in Fort Worth, Texas, and later started Grace Vineyard Church in Arlington, Texas. From 1988 until September of 1992 Jack served as an associate pastor at the Vineyard Christian Fellowship of Anaheim, during this time he traveled extensively throughout the world with John Wimber and Paul Cain in a conference ministry.

Jack has since authored two books Surprised by the Power of the Spirit and Surprised by the Voice of God, and has pastored a Presbyterian church in Whitefish, Montana.

Jack, his wife Leesa, and three children are now living in Kansas City, Missouri where he is the Director of Grace Training Center.

JAMES RYLE

James Ryle endured a traumatic early childhood, followed by years of neglect in an orphanage, and imprisonment in the Texas State Penitentiary to become a man filled with love, identity, and purpose. James testifies that he was sustained in those troubled times by undeniable encounters with the Living God.

Since 1982, James has served as Senior Pastor at the Boulder Valley Vineyard Christian Fellowship and is the author of the best selling books Hippo in the Garden and A Dream Come True.

In addition, James is involved in Promise Keepers, both as a speaker and a member of its Board of Directors. He also serves as the Chaplain of the University of Colorado's football team. He and his wife, Belinda, and their four children live in Boulder, Colorado.

James travels extensively in the U.S., Canada, and Europe, advancing the church through prophetic preaching and conference teaching. He has been well received because of his understanding of the scriptures, his prophetic insights for the church today, and the simplicity, relevance, and refreshing humor with which he presents God's Word.

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

God Still Speaks Today! This resounding Biblical reality is of utmost importance to the church today.

As Christians we recognize our need to know when and how God speaks to each of us. In the flurry of today’s world, with so many voices calling to us, it’s vital we recognize God’s voice clearly and distinctly. Hearing the voice of God enables us to know God more deeply, to do the works of Jesus, and understand our personal and corporate identity and destiny.

It is the challenge of the church to hear God. This conference is an attempt to provide a sound Biblical framework in order to better equip us to hear the voice of God.

Come join us as we pursue God in the adventure of knowing him deeper and more intimately. We desire to be a fruitful vine, a glorious church, and a spotless bride.
