I'm Sean Bulls and I want to welcome you to exploring the prophetic podcast.

I have a passion for how the prophetic gifts can change the world around us.

They make simple everyday people like you and I, a catalyst for life-changing experiences with the supernatural.

On this podcast, I have friends from all different backgrounds who each have a powerful story to tell about how the prophetic is shaping their world.

I invite you to be part of the conversation.

This is exploring the prophetic.

I'm so excited about exploring the prophetic today because we have a pastor from right in California, not from the Bethel Church, but from actually a church that he and his family planty called the story church,

which is having a real impact in seeing culture engaged, being reform thinkers, people who are seeing Christianity in a different way in a different light.

There are a lot of other groups of people. It's a very entrepreneurial church.

He's Nathan Edwards and is the founder and lead pastor of this church.

He has such a creative vision for seeing what could happen with love, music, story and film, all these things to shape disciples in the world.

I love that. His wife, Erica and him are leading a family, not only a church family, but a natural family for beautiful children.

He speaks all over the world and he just has an incredible message about culture and shifting hearts.

I believe that you are going to really enjoy his perspective, but also kind of hearing what it's like to plant a church in Bethel's backyard.

If you don't know about Bethel Church or writing it's a mega church, probably 10% of the city goes to that church over 10,000 people.

Then you have the stirring, which is also a very successful church that's engaging a really millennial crowd and they have people of all ages there though.

They're tackling huge subjects with a modern twist, which I love.

We're going to talk to about some of these things today on this episode. I'm so excited to talk to him.

I love this kind of perspective and you hear somebody who is outside of the box and they're thinking and how they're exploring how God's voice can change the world through even a local church,

or even a community of people in their city. So come with me on the journey and before we get there, here's a word from something that we're working on right now.

Hey, this is Sean Bowles and I'm excited to offer you our audience of exploring the prophetic, a basic prophetic 101 E course that's going to help unwrap you into great theology, great tools and great practice to develop your own prophetic gift.

I think every single one of us needs either a refresher course if you've already been through one or we need an initiation course that gives us the faith to take on these incredible gifts of prophecy, words of knowledge, words of wisdom, discernment, with wisdom to be able to articulate what God wants to say to the world around you.
