Why are we killing Christian films?

A different pespective on an ongoing debate
Copyright 2015 Theresa Harvard Johnson

I received major chastisement from the Lord last week. I found myself jumping on the band wagon about how bad the quality of “Christian movies” are and how they should be better or as good as Hollywood. You know the drill.

You see, Father has raised me in Him to be an exhorter of present day scribes, a mother and mentor in the spirit realm to many – especially as it relates to strengthening them in the calling upon their lives. I find myself standing at the starting lines with pom-poms all the time shouting: YOU CAN DO IT! But this recent realization, left me standing fully repentant. I firmly believe that God has a purpose for every called scribe; and that we, as a body of believers, should do what we can to encourage everyone at all times — no matter what the small beginning might look like. So it became official, I am no longer a part of the “Christian film-killing” bandwagon. This is why.

Father blew this into my Spirit: You my beloved congregation are being removed from the prostitute and every act of discrimination among congregational leaders and those who follow them. I am God and I love my people the same. When the spirit of prostitution comes, I will cause you to quickly recognize it – knowing that it comes to fleece my Spirit and create a divide between the haves-and-the-have-nots. It has no love for the broken, the hurting. It seeks only its own gain, purposes and dreams.

I am God who seeks to encourage, strengthen and protect all those who are mine. Remember me over the ways of men.

How to host a scribal “movie” watching party: Foundations (Part I) (2)

Posted on by Theresa Harvard Johnson

One of the best things about being a part of a prophetic writing or scribal community is that you get to practice and exercise three of the most important spiritual gifts – hearing the voice of God, discernment and prophecy. And yes, hearing God is indeed a gift.

Being prophetic is not scary. It can be as fun and exciting as it is serious. Before we get into how to do this, I want to establish some basic “Voices of Christ” foundations for leaders. Without these foundational tidbits, gatherings like these can easily move out of the presence of God and into other areas – that might not end so well. So hear goes:

1.      Establish who is leading the watching party. It is very important that you establish who is leading your scribal “watching” party. The leader’s role is to initiate and maintain a prayerful, loving, educational atmosphere where those in attendance can safely share and gain understanding. Their role is to also keep focus and direct the prophetic flow of the discussion. Dictators or combative believers should not take on this role.
