Bill Johnson and his wife Brenda (Beni) Johnson are the Senior Pastors of Bethel Church in Redding, California. Johnson is a fifth generation pastor.
Johnson was born in Minnesota in 1951 and became a Christian as a young child. Soon after, Johnson read seven books on prayer, which significantly affected his perspective and subsequent ministry.
Bill Johnson and his wife have three children: Eric, Brian and Leah.
Johnson speaking at a conference Bill Johnson and Beni (Brenda) began as singles pastors under his father at Bethel. In 1979, they became senior pastors of Mountain Chapel in Weaverville, California.
While pastoring in Weaverville, Johnson attended a 1987 conference led by John Wimber, founder of the Vineyard Church Movement. According to Johnson "A number of healings and manifestations broke out and I didn't know what to do with it. I didn't object to it, I wasn't opposed to it; I just didn't know how to pastor it in a way that it would continue and increase".
In 1995, Johnson attended the Toronto Blessing revival at the Toronto Airport Vineyard church. Johnson relates: "In Toronto I said, 'Lord, if You touch me again I will never change the subject.' So I went up for prayer every time it was offered. I didn't have anything dramatic happen, but I came home and said, 'I am going to give the rest of my life to this.'"
In February 1996, after 17 years of leading the Weaverville church, the Johnsons were invited to become senior pastors of Bethel. Today Johnson describes Bethel as a church where "everything we do either fuels revival or is fueled by revival." Under his leadership, Bethel left the Assemblies of God in 2006 to become a nondenominational charismatic church.
According to a recent book written by Johnson, "Face to Face with God", Bethel is "a church where supernatural encounters with God happen regularly, miracles are common, and the congregation has an infectious passion for spiritual growth." The church has approximately 1,500 members, and a School of Supernatural Ministry.
Their Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry has 1,200 students enrolled with over 370 from other countries. Johnson leads a network of churches dedicated to global, multi-generational revival, Global Legacy. Johnson has written a number of books and travels extensively as a featured revival conference speaker. Johnson is also involved with the Northern California Revival Fellowship, a group of north Californian pastors committed to revival.
Although this book was written by Bill Johnson, he used several individuals to share their insights about 'Walking in the Supernatural'. Johnson has made the words on these pages come to life. I believe that changes will come into the lives of God 's people. The principles in this book are some of the important keys to stand on and apply. I strongly recommend this book. Read each page carefully with an open heart and spirit. If you are truly sincere in your "walk with the Lord" then this book is for you. Be Bless!!!!
So much insight and a wealth of knowledge and experience in the healing ministry and ministry in general. I really appreciated the personal struggles and growth that Bill experienced before he became such a well-known preacher.
This book is a great spiritual awakening! Not only does it remind us that God is a God who walks with us everyday, it also encourages us to listen with our spirits so that we may hear. This book is more then something to read and put away, but it is a great story guide. The authors do a great job of combining both of their spiritual wisdom to paint a clear picture of God speaks to us in simple ways. Great Read for all who are answering the knock off Jesus Christ.
I chose to give "Another Cup of Spiritual Java" five stars because of both its content and application points. I enjoy using a devotional guide like this to stir my heart as I start my day. Bill Johnson and the team did a great job weaving personal illustration with Biblical truth. I highly recommend this devotional for Lent or any other 40 days of your life.
I am so thankful for Uncle Bill and the Bethel Church team... They have provided a very good book for the faith hit that you need to take on the world. With some stories of Real life change and amazing principles for reproducing the incredible culture of Bethel Church. This book is a must for those looking to do the true work of our identity to transform individuals, peoples, Cities, nations and countries with the Supernatural Power of God.
simple and yet easy to read. Full of ways to improve our lives and also how to help others. I recommend this boom to anyone who wants to improve his life and walk in God.
It is amazing when you read and encourage yourself with what God is doing. He is alive and around us and speaking to us. Many amazing examples in this book.
