Testimonials

We consider it a great privilege to be a Connection Partner with Jentezen Franklin Media Ministries. We recognize the importance of sharing the gospel message beyond the Gainesville area. There are many around the U.S. and the world, including family and friends, who need to hear the Truth of the Gospel. Many hurting people are comforted and given hope through Pastor Franklin's messages. The unsaved are also brought into the Kingdom. We are blessed to be able to help support this ministry as a Partner and we give glory to God for allowing us this opportunity to be a part of this mandate, praying that many more lives will be changed and brought into the Kingdom.

The biggest impact Jentezen Franklin's ministry has had on my life is through teachings on fasting, prayer and first fruits. This discipline at the beginning of each year, for the past three years, has resulted in my son being saved and my daughter being on fire for the Lord. I now have a new job paying a 100-fold return on my first fruit offering. Without Pastor Franklin's teachings on fasting, I would not be practicing this discipline, and would not be seeing the many victories in my family's life!

In 2006 I started praying about where we should become a partner or even if we should. Later that year I received my answer: Jentezen Franklin Media Ministries. It is not just another TV ministry. We matter to them and they feed us. I compare them this way, God never turns His back on us, God is always there for us and it is not just a one sided relationship. We have found that it is the same with Jentezen Franklin Media Ministries; we know we can count on them! We have an entire neighborhood that calls us their "hotline to God." They know they can count on us to help them and pray for them, but we are teaching them how to do it for themselves.

I was first introduced to Pastor Jentezen Franklin's ministry in 1998 while attending Bible College in Phoenix, Arizona. Over the next several years, my wife and I prayerfully and financially supported Kingdom Connection from a distance. At the beginning of 2004, while pastoring in Phoenix, the Holy Spirit impressed upon my wife and I to leave Arizona and plant a church in Sarasota, FL. One Sunday afternoon, in the spring of 2004, I was watching Kingdom Connection and Pastor Franklin asked partners to help with the purchase of new television equipment for the new Free Chapel campus. I made a decision to give a $1000.00 seed offering and to come into agreement with the Kingdom Connection vision. During this time, my wife and I had our house on the market. Right after I sowed the $1000.00 seed, my door bell rang and our neighbors offered us $4000.00 over asking price, for our house. Our house had only been for sale one day and we were able to sell it without the assistance of a real estate agency. Since that time we have continued to sow, financially, into Jentezen Franklin Ministries. I consider Jentezen Franklin to be a mentor and personal blessing to my life. I am thankful for the opportunity to be partnered with Pastor Jentezen Franklin!

On the seventh day of my 21-day fast, my brother, who I had been praying for, received Christ into his life and the gift of salvation. Praise God.

Years ago I was diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome. My colon was kinked, doctors wanted to put a bag on my side. I went on a fast this year and I actually felt the kink in my colon being untwisted as God was putting it back. I just praise God! I feel so much better and am full of energy. God is still in the healing business. This is what fasting truly will do.

My husband lost his job . . . our marriage was attacked, along with our family. I am so thankful to say WE MADE IT! I love my husband more today than I ever thought I could love another person. God has done so many incredible miracles for us financially, spiritually and He keeps working. Good days are ahead.

My husband is a medical doctor. One of his patients did fertility and blood tests. He was found to be 100 percent sterile, and the blood test looked very poor. This was devastating news because they want children so desperately. My husband and I started a three-day fast for our friends. The blood and sperm tests were done again and this time the results showed that he has a 100 percent sperm count. And the blood test came back so good that the gynaecologist said it couldn’t be the same person’s results. There is power in prayer. But linked with fasting it is supernatural!

I joined your 21-day fast this year. One of my prayers was for a friend who has been ill for some time. God is answering my prayers. Her health is improving and the doctors are confirming it. In joining my faith with other believers, God has shown Himself faithful and strong.

Just read pastor's book on fasting. I was so blessed by it. God bless you all.

I began the 21-day fast with you. I had never done an extended fast before. It has been life changing. I fell totally, completely, head over heels in love with my Savior, Jesus Christ! What a difference He’s made in my heart! I've never known such love. My prayer life is sweeter and stronger. I can't wait to get back into the Word.

I had gone on seven-day fasts before, never a 21-day fast. It was life changing. It was much different than the seven-day fast I had gone on. When the last day came to a close, I felt like a lot was being loosed and there was such a closeness with God that I never had before. I would do it over and over again.

I was in an auto accident a few years ago. At the healing service after the 21-day fast, I felt tingling in the left side of my face, left eye, left ear, back of my neck, and tailbone in lower back. The tingling continued for about 10-15 minutes. My hearing is restored; blurred vision is gone; and my left temple is no longer tender and sore to the touch.

I would like to thank you, Pastor Franklin, for your vision on fasting. I have for some time wondered if fasting really still had power in our time. This morning after having completed the 21 day fast, I know that I have moved closer to God. I can also see how God healed my relationship with my wife. For the first time in 15 years of marriage we are praying together and God has done special work in us. God created the opportunity for me to share the gospel with six people at work all at the same time. My wife is helping a friend who was on the brink of divorce. Through the power of the Holy Ghost that marriage is healing. We give God the glory.

Thank you so much for helping me with my fast. This was my first fast ever and I committed to only fasting three days from any solid foods. On the last day of my fast, I received a settlement I had been waiting on. It was tenfold what I had expected. I plan on going on a longer fast soon. God bless you.

I went on a fast this year and I actually felt the kink in my colon being untwisted as God was putting it back. I just praise God! I feel so much better and am full of energy. God is still in the healing business. This is what fasting truly will do.

We got photo of the CAT scan and my husband's tumor is truly gone! I had to check the name on the printout, but it completely disappeared! The doctor said he was expecting to see some shrinkage, but not to see it completely gone.God didn't even leave scar tissue.

Thank you for the fabulous book on fasting. I read it in two days. I could hardly put it down when I began reading it. I will make fasting a part of my life from this day forward.

I bought the book on fasting in South Africa and when the book arrived, I could not put it down, I prayed the whole night reading the book and by 4 in the morning, I finished reading it. In April of this year my daughter got sick. She is 8 years old and has been in and out of hospitals for the past six years and doctors said she had chronic bronchitis, pneumonia and half her right lung has been destroyed by an unknown virus. When she got sick, I decided to use the ultimate weapon, FASTING FOR THREE DAYS (FULL FASTING). On the final day of my fasting I woke up in the morning and went to work. I phoned home during the day and heard my daughter's laughter in the background. I was so shocked. I spoke to her on the phone and she was well, happy and playing. NOBODY COULD HAVE PERFORMED SUCH A MIRACLE ON MY DAUGHTER EXCEPT GOD AND I GIVE PRAISE TO HIM ALL THE TIME. It has been five months now and she has gained weight, is happy and can dream of the future like healthy children. PRAISE BE TO GOD. HALLELUJAH.

For the first time in my life, I tried an Esther fast. I had to do it because my marriage was going down the drain. My husband and I had separated three months prior to my fast. We were sure our nine years of marriage was over. The separation caused me to draw closer to God and I was moved by the Holy Spirit to fast for my marriage. After completing the fast, making a commitment to God and being obedient, within one month, my husband called me and asked me to reconcile. I knew God was going to do something GREAT with the fast, however, I was SHOCKED at how quickly and easily things took a turn for the better. It’s now two months since the reconciliation and I have incorporated one day of fasting every week so I can stay in tuned with God. FASTING really works! There are some things that cannot happen unless we pray and fast!!
