December 16, 2025 - Ministry to Unbelievers Over Distance

Gary's Hackathon Victory

• Gary shared participation in hackathon building factory safety tech with smart glasses
• Apostle's response: "We got a tool that's called the Holy Ghost" - noting it serves a similar warning function

In-Person vs. Distance Ministry Teaching

• Core Principle: "It would always be better to get them to come into the presence of God if you can get them to encounter"
• When unbelievers enter atmosphere of "true love and power," it boosts their faith even when they initially "can't feel a thing"
• In-person ministry doesn't depend solely on recipient's existing faith level

Recent Healing Testimony Shared

• Sunday service: Sean (Shore's husband) came with multiple back surgeries, walking with cane
• "He cried like a baby up at the altar. When God healed his back... He walked through that altar without that cane"
• Grew up Baptist skeptic, never seen supernatural ministry before
• Wife confirmed healing remained at home

Distance Ministry Acknowledgment

• Has ministered over phone and Zoom with results
• Has seen God heal over phone calls and Zoom
• Mostly believers seek distance ministry; rare for unbelievers to engage
• "Most people won't get on Zoom for ministry and hear words that are unbelievers... Like they just don't believe. Why would they even listen?"

Words of Knowledge as Faith Catalysts

• Blue Huffy Bike Testimony: Man serving 99 years for murder came for counseling; Apostle saw vision of him as young man on blue Huffy bike, falling and breaking right ankle; when told, man jumped against wall in shock
• "God just wants you to know that he's here, and he knows everything about you. He loves you"
• Personal details that "nobody else knows" break through skepticism and lead to salvation

Key Teaching for Gary's Sick Friend

• "God don't heal you because you're saved. He heals you because he loves you. Trust him."
• Gary to provide context about God's reality and Holy Spirit's presence - essentially the content of their co-authored book

Key December 16 Quotes

"We got a tool that's called the Holy Ghost."

"It would always be better to get them to come into the presence of God if you can get them to encounter."

"God don't heal you because you're saved. He heals you because he loves you. Trust him."
