THE BEAT by Allen Parr

How The NAR Movement is Deceiving MILLIONS of Christians

Most Christians have never heard the term "New Apostolic Reformation" — but there's a good chance they've already been shaped by it. It's in the worship music, the "prophetic words," and the way we talk about hearing from God. In this video, we take an honest, biblical look at the teachings at the heart of the NAR and Bethel Church — and why a recent reckoning involving figures like Bill Johnson and Shawn Bolz should concern every believer. We hold each claim up to Scripture, stay fair to the people involved, and walk away with a simple way to test any teacher, song, or "word from God" for yourself.
