On October 26, 2024, a one-day conference was held in Chicago, Illinois at the Now Arena. This event was hosted by Mike Signorelli, an “apostle” and pastor of V1 Church in New York, and the event boasted of close to ten thousand people. According to the V1 church website, “Breakers Conference is a movement of warriors contending for revival to come to our cities, freedom to break out in our circles, and salvation to sweep through our regions.

The Faulty Paths of The Final Quest

October 25, 2024 lovesickscribe Comments 1 comment

What would you do if someone claimed to have had an extraordinary dream or trance where the last great spiritual battle of the end times was seen in great detail, and the strategies of the enemy against the church were revealed? How would you respond to someone who likened this alleged prophetic revelation to the American Civil War, where Christians would be divided against one another as Blues (spiritual) and Grays (intellectual), and those who opposed the next great move…

Failed Weather Decrees and the Devastation of Hurricane Helene

October 4, 2024 lovesickscribe

It was only a week ago that I sat on my screened in back porch and watched the wind and the heavy rain wash over our land in southwest Virginia while our home remained intact in semi-darkness, interspersed with flashlights and the sound of trees breaking in the distance. Hurricane Helene had touched down in Florida the night before and had made its way inland further than anyone had anticipated. None of us knew the devastation that would transpire in…

God’s Redemption in the Online World

September 20, 2024 lovesickscribe

It was October 25, 2020. I had received an email from an individual concerning an old “prophetic word” that I had written, and though the email was kind and seeming to be encouraging, a pit in my stomach ensued. This one email affirming this alleged prophetic revelation drove me to repentance as a false prophet. It also began the process of wanting these old words removed from a popular Charismatic media site. For several years now, dozens of these words…

A Story of Hope in Christ Post-NAR

September 6, 2024 lovesickscribe

Recently, I sat down with a friend and sister in Christ who had exited a popular women’s group within the hyper charismatic/ NAR movement two years ago. After developing a friendship and getting to know one another for about a year after her departure, Trish felt comfortable sitting down to tell her story and to discuss some of the teachings that she had been exposed to in the Core Group. It has been a year since that first recorded discussion,…

NAR Books- What We Read Matters

August 30, 2024 lovesickscribe

I love books. It is not uncommon to find small stacks of books sitting around my house waiting to be read. I have a bad habit of buying new books that pique my interest, creating a new pile of books with pristine spines and pages yet to see dog eared corners and the trails of highlighter to mark the insight within. The types of books that I purchase and eventually read for personal growth have changed dramatically over the last…

Weighing in on American Gospel’s NAR Roundtable

August 23, 2024 lovesickscribe

Is the New Apostolic Reformation a myth or a movement? This was the overarching topic during a previously filmed roundtable released as part of the upcoming docuseries, American Gospel: Spirit and Fire. Doug Geivett and Holly Pivec, who have written several books surrounding the topic of NAR, had an extended discussion with Michael Brown, an opponent to the existence of this movement and a friend and colleague to many who are labeled as practitioners in this movement. There were numerous…

Is There Hope After Spiritual Abuse?

August 2, 2024 lovesickscribe

The LORD is near to all who call on Him, to all who call out to Him in truth. Psalm 145:18 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. Psalm 147:3 Many of us have stories that we could share in coming out of some facet of spiritual abuse. This type of pain is not exclusive to a particular movement or belief system. Though it can seem as if we are all alone and the only one who is…

The Doctrine of Charismatic Witchcraft

July 25, 2024 lovesickscribe

Years ago, a well-known and acknowledged leader in the New Apostolic Reformation movement, released a video discussing how to recognize the signs of a church controlled by witchcraft. A series of questions were posed in the teaching such as, does the leadership curse people who leave the church? Does the leadership teach that God will speak to them before He speaks to you? Does the leadership curse people who leave the church? Does the leadership teach that they are the…
