Pastor Nathan is a anointed speaker, teacher, prophet, and demonstrator of God's word who strongly believes in the five-fold ministry, building kingdom relationships, mending the brokenhearted and setting the captives free. He walks in the gift of healing as the Holy Spirit moves within him. God has used him mighty in the laying on of hands, where death ears have opened and the lame have walked.As he teaches the word, God's people are enlightened to believe that they too have a purpose to fulfill in the Kingdom, as noted in 1 Corinthians 2:9:“No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no human mind has conceived” the things God has prepared for those who love him.
