Dear Friends,
The Lord is doing extraordinary things through Andrew Wommack Ministries and Charis Bible
College. I could spend hours sharing with you and not even scratch the surface. This magazine will try
to fill you in on some of the highlights. These testimonies and pictures will give you a sense of the many
wonderful things the Lord has done.
But all that is happening today are really the results of seeking the Lord forty-five years ago to know His
will for my life. I was in my first year of college, just going through the motions, but in my heart, I was crying
out to the Lord to show me His purpose for my life. And on March 23, 1968, God showed up BIG TIME.
The last forty-five years have been a process of walking through God’s good, acceptable, and perfect
will for my life. It certainly hasn’t been easy, but it’s been awesome! I wouldn’t trade what the Lord has
done for me for any other life. The Lord has been very good to Jamie and me.
My main article in this magazine is on how you can find God’s will for your life. It doesn’t come
automatically or by fate. If you don’t pursue God’s best, it won’t happen. And there is no way you can
pursue God’s will if you don’t know what it is. As Paul told the Ephesians, you should not be ignorant but
understand what the will of the Lord is (Eph. 5:17). You can know God’s will for your life. In fact, you must
know God’s will for your life in order to fulfill it.
I’ve just released a new book entitled How to Find, Follow, and Fulfill God’s Will. This is a combination of
three separate but related teachings into one book. I believe this is an absolute necessity for all who want
to fulfill their destinies. I guarantee you, this will bless your life. We also have three separate study guides
to go along with this new book, as well as the three original CD albums and DVD albums.
Lastly, check out the update on our construction at The Sanctuary in Woodland Park, Colorado. Praise
the Lord, He has led me to raise up a first-rate Bible college to impact the world, and we are well on our
way to accomplishing that. Thanks to everyone who is a part of what the Lord started in my life forty-five
years ago. I believe the best is yet to come for us and for you.
You are blessed,
Andrew and Jamie

How to Find, Follow, and Fulfill
God’s Will
by Andrew Wommack
Are you fulfilling your call? Do you even know what God has ordained for
your life? If not, you’re certainly not alone. I once ministered at a Gospel Truth
Seminar in Orlando, Florida, on the subject of finding God’s will. Two-thirds of
the audience rose when I asked for those to stand who didn’t know if they were
walking in God’s will. How can believers ever expect to build God’s kingdom if
they don’t know their part?
The first thing is to realize that the Lord has a
specific and unique plan for you. He’s had this plan in
mind before you were even born.
Psalm 139:15-16 says,
My frame was not hidden from you when I was made
in the secret place. When I was woven together in the
depths of the earth, [16] your eyes saw my unformed
body. All the days ordained for me were written in
your book before one of them came to be. (New
International Version 1984)
You aren’t a mistake going somewhere to happen.
You haven’t been placed on this earth by chance. Where
and when you were born, the parents God gave you,
your personality, and everything else about you was
orchestrated by God for a specific purpose. But this
doesn’t mean God’s will is automatically going to come
to pass in your life. It won’t. God’s will doesn’t always
come to pass. Take salvation, for instance.
Where and when you were born,
the parents God gave you, your
personality, and everything else
about you was orchestrated by God
for a specific purpose.
Second Peter 3:9 tells us,
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some
men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward,
not willing that any should perish, but that all should
come to repentance.

church how to find God’s will. Nobody could tell me
what to do.
I decided to start reading the Bible. I figured God’s
Word could give me the knowledge I needed, so I stayed
up until two or three o’clock every night, reading. Even
though I ended up reading through the Bible two or
three times during my senior year, I still didn’t have
any specific direction from the Lord. But then, all of a
sudden, one passage of Scripture—Romans 12:1b-2—
came alive to me:
It’s clear from this scripture that God wants
everyone to come to repentance and be saved, yet we
know that not everyone does. God also wants everyone
healed (3 John 2), yet people still live with sickness in
their bodies. Likewise, God wants everyone to find and
walk in the purpose He has ordained for them, yet not
everyone will. But that’s not God’s fault.
Once you realize you are the one responsible for
discovering God’s will, the next step is to start seeking
Him for it. He’s not hiding His will from you. But
you’re going to have to do some seeking to find it.
You are the one responsible for
discovering God’s will.
Jeremiah 29:12-13 tell us how we need to seek God:
Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray
unto me, and I will hearken unto you. [13] And ye
shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for
me with all your heart.
Notice the emphasis on seeking with all your heart.
As long as you can live without knowing God’s will for
your life, you will. But when you seek with all your
heart, you will find His will (Matt. 7:7).
When I was a senior in high school, I was faced
with having to know what God’s will for my life was. I
needed to know if I was supposed to go to college, or
what path God wanted me to take. I asked people in my
6 GospelTruth
Present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable
unto God, which is your reasonable service. [2] And
be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed
by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what
is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
For the next four months, I meditated on those
scriptures. It was shortly after that when I had my
life-changing encounter with God. As a result of that
encounter, I began to see that God had called me to be
a full-time minister. I don’t think it was any accident
that He showed up in such a miraculous way in my
life at that time. It was because I had been diligently
seeking Him, wanting to know the path He had for me.
One mistake people often make in seeking God’s
purpose is that they assume that whatever they’re good
at in the natural must be what God wants them to do.
So, if they’re naturally good at public speaking, they
figure that God must have called them to a speaking
ministry of some sort. I don’t believe this is always
true. It certainly wasn’t true in my case. I was scared
stiff of speaking in front of people.
One mistake people often make in
seeking God’s purpose is that they
assume that whatever they’re good
at in the natural must be what God
wants them to do.
God called me to do what is beyond my natural
ability so that I would have to rely on Him to get it done.
That’s why God’s will may have nothing to do with
How to Find, Follow, and Fulfill God’s Will
your natural gifts. If you can do something yourself—
naturally—you wouldn’t need God’s empowerment.
Sometimes people’s talents may be an indication of
what God’s will is, but many have gifts and talents they
don’t even know exist.
Paul said that God had separated him from his
mother’s womb and called him by His grace (Gal.
1:15). God purposed for Paul to be a minister of the
Gospel before he was ever born. He didn’t look at
Paul’s talents once he grew up and then decided He
could use him. His life had been predestined, just as
yours is. So, if you only look at what you’re good at to
determine your purpose, you may totally miss it.
God’s perfect will is definitely worth finding.
Supernatural peace and joy come when you’re in the
center of His will. And God’s blessing and anointing
will always be on your work when you’re doing what
He’s called you to do.
Moses found this out the hard way and ended up
delaying God’s plan by thirty years. He took matters
into his own hands and killed an Egyptian, thereby
totally missing God’s plan and timing for the Israelites’
deliverance. It ended up costing Moses forty years in
the wilderness, which was not God’s original plan.
Throughout the Bible, we see examples of God
preparing His people for the ministry He called them
to. David waited thirteen years from the time he was
anointed to be king, until he actually became king.
Moses had to wait ten years. Paul had to wait fourteen.
And then there was Abraham, who had to wait twentyfive years, until he was 100!
God always calls you to do something totally beyond
your own ability because He wants you to depend on
Him. It’s important that you wait and do things His
way and in His timing, not only for yourself, but also
for those He has called you to reach.

God always calls you to do

Following God’s Will…
Did you know that finding God’s will is not enough?
It’s only the first step. Some people get a revelation of
God’s general will for their lives but then stop seeking
Him for direction on how to carry it out. Knowing
God’s will is critical, but after that, you must learn how
to follow His will and cooperate with Him to bring it
to pass.
People may stumble across God’s will but then
decide they can carry it out in their own strength. They
think they have God’s plan all figured out, and they
don’t take time to discover how He wants to accomplish
His will through them.
Another problem is that people often won’t take
time to prepare for God’s will to be fulfilled. They are
moved by the need that’s around them, and they feel
pressured into hurrying to bring God’s plan to pass.
You can’t speed up the things of God, but you can
certainly delay them.

How to Find, Follow, and Fulfill God’s Will
Fulfilling God’s Will…
Many Christians will master the first step of finding
God’s will for their lives and then follow His will by
continually seeking Him for direction. But once God
actually gives them specific steps on how to walk in His
will, they come up with a million excuses as to why they
can’t do it.
I see this over and over again with prospective Bible
college students. So many have told me that they know
God wanted them to come to our college years ago,
but for whatever reason—parents, children, pets, you
name it—they didn’t come. The truth is, if you wait for
everything in your life to line up perfectly before you
obey God, you never will.
If God has told you to do something, don’t try to
figure out how it will work or where the provision will
come from. God told Elijah to go to a certain place and
that He would provide for him when he got there. (I
have a teaching on this called “A Place Called There.”)
Elijah had to act in faith and go to the brook if he
wanted to see God’s provision.
You’ll miss a lot if you don’t obey God. If you
want to finish your race strong and do all that He has
6 GospelTruth

planned for you, you must obey the steps He gives you.
There are no shortcuts! Now, God will still love you—
you’ll still be His child, you’ll still make it into heaven,
and He’ll still use you in His kingdom—but you won’t
fulfill His perfect will for your life.
In order to walk in the fullness of what God has
for you—the good of the land—you must obey all He
tells you to do. Many of you have something that God
has impressed on your hearts to do, and for whatever
reason, you just haven’t done it. Stop making excuses
and get started! If you don’t know exactly how to do it,
pray and ask God to give you wisdom (James 1:5-8).
If you feel dissatisfied or unsettled with your life
and are tired of just going to work, coming home,
watching television, going to bed, and getting up and
doing it all over again, it may be God provoking you to
start seeking out His perfect will. Don’t wait another
day to begin the search for God’s will in your life.
To help you in this effort, I have released a
new book: How to Find, Follow, and Fulfill God’s Will,
accompanied with three study guides. I also have a
series of three, five-part teachings: How to Find God’s
Will, How to Follow God’s Will, and How to Fulfill God’s
Will. I believe this teaching will literally change your
life if you apply these principles. GT

The New Normal: From Autism to
Awesome
It was a perfect Monday morning when Christopher McDermott held his
newborn son, Timothy, for the very first time. Although the two had met only
moments before, a bond of love was already forming. Christopher wanted only
the best for his son, and at that moment, he couldn’t imagine anything that would
keep him from it.
But any thoughts Christopher had of Timothy being
a “perfect” baby quickly faded when he discovered that
his child was completely inconsolable. “He’d scream
and scream as though he was in pain, but the doctors
couldn’t find anything wrong with him,” remembers
Christopher’s wife, Deborah. As new parents,
Christopher and Deborah didn’t know what to expect
from a newborn, so they just assumed that most kids
were like Timothy.
Aside from his fussiness, Timothy seemed to the
McDermotts to be perfectly normal and happy—at
least for his first few years. “When Timothy got older,
we realized that he wasn’t a happy boy,” says Deborah.
“He was very nervous and anxious all the time.”
Problems escalated when Timothy was about nine. He
had been homeschooled up to that point because the
McDermotts were afraid he would be diagnosed with
Attention Deficit Disorder if he was sent to school.
“He couldn’t even sit still to eat,” recalls Deborah. “He
would run around the table, take a mouthful, then run
around the table again.”
One of the McDermotts’ greatest fears was that
Timothy would grow up alone. They were afraid for
when he grew older, when they would no longer be
there to protect or care for him. Christopher and
Deborah decided it would be good for Timothy to
have a sibling. Even Timothy thought that having a little
brother was a great idea—until he had one.
Baby James, like Timothy, proved to be a difficult
baby; yet, unlike Timothy, he was happy: “We
suddenly realized how different it was to have a child
who was bubbly and would look people in the eye,”
says Christopher.
But Deborah knew she wouldn’t be able to continue
to homeschool Timothy and take care of James as
well. Educating Timothy was very cumbersome, as
each week, Deborah felt as though she had to start
completely over with what she had just taught him
the week before. “But yet,” says Deborah, “Timothy
had the ability to remember things he’d learn from his
video or computer games…. In fact, he would discover
mistakes that the Star Wars games made with regards
Spring 2013 11
Healing Journey
to the languages on the different planets. He got very
indignant that they were wrong…. Everything had to
be just so with him.”
Matters became worse for Timothy after James
arrived, as his parents had less time to devote to him.
The McDermotts enrolled him in a small, specialized
school, which they thought could help him. Instead,
it only magnified his problems. Timothy began
having nightmares about drowning, he lost weight,
and he stopped growing. He then started having
“storms,” where insignificant issues would cause
him to fall to pieces.
Deborah (pregnant with James) and Timothy
These storms led him into dangerous behavior,
such as headbutting doors or the floor, or punching
himself as a result of distress. Being in public became
highly stressful for Timothy, and he was very particular
about his food and how it was served. He also had no
coordination, which caused simple things like writing
to be a major challenge. The McDermotts had no
6 GospelTruth
12
GospelTruth
choice but to take Timothy out of school and seek
professional help.
While Timothy’s condition deteriorated, James
began having his own problems when he was about
eighteen months old: “James always had a few odd
things [about him], but not enough to cause concern,”
recalls Deborah. “But then he stopped talking and
communicating, and then he stopped wanting people
to look at him…he became bothered with lights, and
then he stopped eating his food [if it wasn’t the perfect
texture and just right].”
At the suggestion of Timothy’s therapist, the
McDermotts also had James evaluated. He was
diagnosed as having developmental delays and
behavioral issues, along with obvious impairments that
are on the autistic spectrum. At this point, Timothy had
already been diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome, and
now James had the possibility of the same diagnosis.
Christopher and Deborah came face to face with the
reality that, against all odds, they had two children with
serious disabilities.
Deborah had her own challenges to confront during
this time as well. Christopher took a new job, which
had him traveling quite often, and because she focused
on her kids 24/7, she had no circle of friends or any
support system in place. She had to walk through this
dark valley alone. But Deborah soon discovered that it’s
during her darkest moments that God’s love and grace
shine the brightest.
“One day when I was really down, I turned on
Christian programming on television,” recalls Deborah.
“Mothers were talking about their kids and proudly
showing off their pictures…. And it just hit me, what
I was really experiencing with my own family. I felt so
alone and deserted. I yelled out to God, ‘Why don’t You
help us?’ I had been asking Him to help for years and
I was angry. I believed it was God’s fault because I had
been taught that He was sovereign. I said, ‘I love my
boys so much, and You’re supposed to love them more
than me….’ I told Him, ‘I would die for my boys.’ He
said, ‘I already did.’ I was so stunned that I just shut up.”
Deborah stared into the fireplace as she continued
her conversation with God: “You did die, but what
difference does it make in our situation?” God simply
replied, “I’ll heal your sons.” Deborah’s faith leapt, and
Healing Journey
in her heart, she immediately believed that her sons
would be okay. “I remember thinking, Yes, He’ll heal them.
That’s why He died, so He could heal them.” As Deborah
continued to unconsciously gaze at the flickering flames,
God melted away her tears, her pain, and years’ worth of
anxiety. From that moment, the terror that had stalked
her day and night completely vanished.
Although Deborah clung to God’s words, she still
needed help. One day as she was praying, her mother,
who lives several hours away, phoned to tell her to turn on
the Gospel Truth. She immediately tuned in and watched
the story of Hannah Terradez, whom God miraculously
healed of a life-threatening disease. “As I watched
that day, faith rose inside of me,” recalls Deborah. “I
thought, Yes, Andrew’s talking about my God!” Christopher
looked up Andrew Wommack Ministries (AWM) on the
internet and, to the McDermotts’ surprise, discovered
that Andrew would be in Walsall—a two-hour drive
away—in two weeks.
Over the next couple of days, Deborah and
Christopher diligently researched both AWM and
Hannah. They were blessed and amazed by what they
learned, and knew in their hearts that this was God’s
answer to their cry for help. But they also knew that it
would take a miracle just to get to Walsall.
Timothy couldn’t last more than fifteen minutes in
a car without getting severely nauseous. James had never
even been in a car for more than half an hour. Even in
that short time, he screamed and cried continuously.
Staying in a hotel would present a whole new set of
challenges that came with being away from routine and
familiar surroundings. But the McDermotts knew they
had to get to the meeting.
They began watching Andrew every day, bought
as many books as possible, and downloaded teachings
from www.awmi.net. Their faith grew to believe God
for what He said they already had. Deborah’s next step
was to call Andrew Wommack Ministries of Europe
and alert them to their situation. “The woman I spoke
with asked me, ‘What can you believe for?’ I told her, ‘I
think we can get there, but I’m not sure I can exercise
my faith enough to get into the building.’ She said, ‘If
you can’t get them out of the car, we’ll send a prayer
team to you.’ Then she prayed in a way that I had never
heard before. She was authoritative and thanked God
that it was already done. I hung up and thought, This is
really going to happen.”
The two weeks leading up to the trip tested the
McDermotts’ faith to its limits. Timothy cried with
anxiety whenever the trip was mentioned, and when
the day came to go, he physically fought not to get
into the car. But Deborah recited to God His promise
and refused to back down. As the family drove, both
boys settled in and became calm—even cheerful. The
miraculous was already happening.
As an additional step of faith, once the McDermotts
arrived at their hotel, they ate next door at the same
KFC where Hannah ate right after God healed her. Both
boys—who, for their entire lives, were not only severely
restricted with what they ate but also had to have their
food prepared in particular ways—ate their fill of
popcorn chicken and fries. God continued to answer
the family’s prayers with one miracle after another to
prove He was fully in control of their situation.
Timothy and Christopher
Spring 2013 13
Healing Journey
During a break at the meeting, Deborah and
Christopher waited in line with their sons so Andrew
could pray for them. The line was long, and before
their turn came, Andrew announced that it was time
to return to their seats. Completely deflated, Deborah
began weeping. She couldn’t leave without Andrew
praying for them. Just then, someone grabbed her arm
and thrust her right in front of Andrew. That someone
was Paul Flanagan, director of Charis Bible College
(CBC) West Midlands.
“Deborah quickly told Andrew our situation,”
says Christopher, “and without hesitation, he simply
rebuked autism and commanded healing into our boys.
Then he blessed us as a family and thanked God that
we would fulfill God’s plan for our lives. He then said
something we will never forget: He told us that we were
now the parents of normal, healthy children.”
“I remember hearing that as if the whole world
went quiet, and it was just these words hanging there,”
adds Deborah. “For me, it was Jesus talking to me, and
it was a promise. I knew Andrew was right. We left and
went to McDonald’s, where the boys ate like I’ve never
seen them eat before.”
From the first day the McDermotts arrived home,
the transformation they witnessed in James and
Timothy was remarkable. That night, the entire family
experienced their first night of peaceful sleep since the
day James was born—five years earlier.
Deborah and Christopher watched in awe of
God’s power as James continued to sleep through the
night, month after month and year after year. The
same miraculous change occurred in Timothy. “It was
as if Timothy was covered in scales of autism,” says
Christopher, “and over time, those scales were peeled
away to reveal the amazing boy that he is today.”
Deborah attributes the miraculous changes in her
boys to God’s word of healing that He spoke to her
and to Andrew’s teaching, which helped her rightly
understand God’s will for healing, as well as kept her
faith strong during times of doubt. “When I watched
Andrew, he seemed to be talking about the God that I
knew…not the other one that everyone else seems to
talk about,” explains Deborah. “I was confused about a
lot of other teachings regarding faith and the power of
words and understanding the difference between works
and grace.
14 GospelTruth
Deborah and James
“I felt that God led me to Andrew’s teachings so
He could teach me what I needed to know. I listened
only to Andrew for nearly six months, and in that
time, my questions were answered. The teachings that
helped me most were Spirit, Soul & Body, You’ve Already
Got It!, and God Wants You Well. Through these, I finally
understood how I had been wrongly taught about the
sovereignty of God.” Deborah realizes that if she had
continued believing incorrectly, her boys would not be
healed today, because she would’ve thought that their
condition was God’s will for them.
Once Timothy and James were healed, the
McDermotts took them both back to their psychologists
for another evaluation. The new diagnosis is that Timothy
is a “neurodevelopmentally typical young man, and the
label of Asperger’s syndrome is not applicable.” He was
discharged from the doctor’s care. Likewise, James’s
official report now reads, “...it is clear there has been
significant progress over time in all areas associated with
Healing Journey
the triad of impairment with autism. As a result, the label
Autism Spectrum Disorder is no longer appropriate for
James and should be removed from any documentation
in the future that relates to him.”
Deborah and Timothy have begun the CBC
correspondence course together and are hoping to one
day attend CBC as full-time students. “From there,
we’ll see where the Lord guides us,” says Deborah. “But
for now, we are gaining a solid foundation through the
correspondence course.”
The McDermotts’ present reality and hopes for
the future are so far removed from how life used to

be when Timothy and James were young children.
Deborah remembers when she could only imagine a
life of normalcy: “I used to dream about all four of us
going out to dinner and not worrying about anything…
just like a normal family. I used to dream about going to
the cinema and eating popcorn and watching a movie
together. We had never done these things before. But,
just as I had imagined, we went to the cinema, and we
bought the popcorn. We are a normal family, and I
am the mother of normal, healthy children—just like
Andrew said.” You can watch a video of this testimony
at: www.awmi.net/extra/healing/mcdermott. GT
Raped at gunpoint, a young, scared, and
pregnant Connie Weiskopf succumbed to proabortion counseling. Pregnant again by a live-in
boyfriend, she endured a second abortion. Then,
after years of guilt, she found herself battling
breast cancer. It was there that her healing
journey really began.
The diagnosis—malignant neoplasm. The
tumor grew at an alarming rate and began to
metastasize in Mike Hoesch’s body. Mike was
confused, discouraged, and convinced that he
was not healed, because he didn’t measure up.
Then a friend gave him hope.
Debbie found her husband, Alan, lying
on the ground. He had experienced a massive
stroke. “One-third of his brain is permanently
damaged,” said the doctors. “He will never walk,
swallow, or speak again.” Yet nine days later, he
walked out of the hospital, unaided.
The nurses raced Jamie Scott’s newborn
girl to the ICU. X-rays showed that baby Audrey
was missing a rib, major arteries, and the left side
of her heart. The doctors offered little hope. “I
laid my hands on her and commanded her to be
whole,” said Jamie. And then the Holy Spirit spoke
these words to her heart—“Watch Me work.”
Chronic pain from fibromyalgia was
robbing Lance Weldgen of his life. The seventeen
prescription medications he was taking had little
or no lasting effect. Hope was fading until God
arranged a divine encounter with other believers
at a coffee shop.

Many Gospel Truth readers
probably remember when we
shared about the passing of Leland
Shores, the former director of
Charis Bible College (CBC)
Uganda. Because of Leland’s
unexpected death, we were forced
to close the college at the end of
2011. We weren’t giving up on
the college; we were just waiting
for God to bring new directors to
reopen it and successfully operate
and grow it.
Those directors have been
found in Hank and Mary Lenz,
who “resurrected” CBC Uganda
at the end of January with over 150
students. Hank and Mary were
former classmates as well as former
employers of Leland’s when they
owned a Blimpie’s sandwich shop
in Colorado Springs.
CBC Colorado graduate Dean Crooks
and his wife, Linda, had stepped in as the
school’s interim directors and helped conduct
CBC Uganda’s first graduation ceremony.
But after graduation, classes were put on
hold until full-time directors were hired.

Aside from the college,
Andrew Wommack Ministries
(AWM) has continued to make
great headway in Uganda. For
the past eight years, Andrew
has been broadcasting the Gospel
Truth on Lighthouse Television
out of Kampala twice a day. This
is a 50,000-watt station that was
originally erected by the Chinese
Communists for Idi Amin to
broadcast his propaganda.
Additionally, a bookstore was
established over five years ago
in downtown Kampala, at the
busiest intersection in the city.
Nearly 10,000 people walk past
that location each day. An average
of twenty-five people come to the
Lord, and many more receive prayer and the baptism of
the Holy Spirit every week at the AWM bookstore.
Recently the Lord has opened doors for AWM to
expand into one of the remotest areas of Uganda—
Kampala city market
The huts are quite tiny. Though some have two levels, the
bottom level is only about four feet tall, and the entire
hut is only eight feet in diameter. It’s not uncommon to
have families of eight or ten people living in the bottom

the Karamoja region in the northeastern part of the
country. There are over one million people living in
5,000 small villages throughout Karamoja.
This entire area is completely isolated and very
different from the rest of Uganda. Their isolation is
due to a history of extreme violence, as people killed
each other because of cattle rustling. In fact, instead of
individual houses similar to those found in the rest of
Uganda, the people in Karamoja live in circular villages of
200 or so people. For defense, each village is surrounded
with huge thorn branches woven into hedges.
The people in the villages of Karamoja still live as
their ancestors did a thousand years ago. The grasshuts
they call home are simply sticks with thatch coverings.

portion alone! The families have no possessions, except
pots for cooking and mats for sleeping. Some of the
villagers do not even wear any clothing.
Perhaps the saddest part of the Karamoja existence
is the overwhelming malnutrition and widespread
water contamination. The people are ranchers and goat
herders, but the fighting has killed all the cattle, so now
all that remains are very small and thin goats. It is a
hopeless situation among the villagers, with their total
focus set on trying to find enough food to survive each
day. They truly are only a step away from death at any
given time.
Spiritual poverty is rampant as well. The Karamojan
people have no idea what a Bible is or who Jesus is.
Instead, they adhere to the many pagan practices of
their ancestors.
But here’s the good news: God has been provided
an entrance into Uganda—including the remote areas
of Karamoja—and His Word is beginning to go forth in
powerful ways. Ugandan president, Museveni, recently
publicly repented for all his sins as well as those of his
nation, and he dedicated Uganda to the Lord. Uganda
is in revival, and God has positioned AWM to be a big
part of what He’s doing there.
Last October, Andrew visited Karamoja with
Pastor Francis, who is from southwestern Uganda and
among AWM’s first group of disciples. Pastor Francis
has personally discipled over 300 ministers and, with
the help of Andrew Womaack Ministries, teaches the
Discipleship Evangelism course on five daily radio
stations, reaching thousands.

After seeing the physical and spiritual poverty of
the Karamojan people, Andrew knew he had to do
something to help them long term. As he shared his
heart with Pastor Francis, Andrew learned that after
pastoring for twenty-five years, Francis had heard from
God that at the beginning of 2013, he was to turn his
church over to an associate. The Lord wanted Francis
to travel and teach the Discipleship Evangelism course
full time. In January 2013, Pastor Francis came to work
for Andrew, helping him reach the people of Karamoja.
Francis is now traveling regularly to Karamoja and
using Discipleship Evangelism to train approximately
one hundred believers. He teaches four or five lessons
over a couple of days and then sends the disciples out in
groups to show the JESUS film in the native language of
the people. This in itself is a huge deal, as most of the
people in this area have never seen a movie before. Just
showing a movie could draw every person in the entire
village to come and watch.

But because it’s a movie about Jesus, they will now
have a frame of reference as to who He is and what He
did for them. They will finally begin to understand what
crucifixion is and why Jesus died for them. Immediately
after the film, Pastor Francis’s team gives an invitation
to receive the Lord. Over the weeks that follow, the
new converts will then be discipled by those who have
already received the Discipleship Evangelism training.
In addition to these efforts, CBC Uganda will take
their missions trips to the Karamoja region, which will
thrust hundreds more laborers into this harvest field.
With all these avenues in place, Andrew and Pastor
Francis have developed a plan that will allow them to
Karamoja natives
Spring 2013 19
On the Road with Andrew
reach all of the villagers in the Karamoja region with
the Gospel in three years. Of course, not everyone will
receive Jesus, and even fewer will ultimately become
disciples, but the Karamoja harvest is still positioned
to be quite large.
One of the best parts is that it will only cost
about $4,000 per month for the Karamoja project.
That amount will pay for Pastor Francis’s salary, travel
expenses, and the purchase of the JESUS films and
generators. Another $12,000 per month is needed
to fund CBC Uganda, the Lighthouse Television
broadcasts, and the downtown bookstore. For
approximately $16,000 per month, AWM can impact
tens of millions of people in Uganda in a way that could
literally change the nation.

Building “The Barn”
By the time this magazine gets distributed, the
walls will be up at The Barn, the floor of the main level
poured, and hopefully, the entire basement enclosed so
that the plumbing and other infrastructure work can
be completed.
It’s been a long road since the initial planning
stages were implemented in the building of this first
of two structures that comprise The Sanctuary, the new
home of Charis Bible College’s (CBC) headquarters
in Woodland Park, Colorado. Favorable weather
conditions throughout most of the winter have allowed
construction crews to make tremendous progress.
By the end of November, the crews were able
to accomplish many of the underground structural
components of The Barn: pouring footings for the
basement, erecting the forms for the basement walls,
and continuing the development of the road system
necessary to bring in cranes and other equipment. And,
by mid-January, the entire basement support structure
had been completed.
Building the 90,000-square-foot Barn will allow
the CBC Colorado student body to grow to over 1,300
students. Meanwhile, the construction of the second
building, which includes a 2,500-seat auditorium
and administrative offices, will be underway. When
finished, these two buildings will be a combined
220,000 square feet!
For Andrew, The Sanctuary is a dream come true.
Once the Lord showed him how he must multiply
himself by raising up disciples in order to effectively
take the grace message to the nations, his vision has
been for the expansion of CBC. Sending out graduates
throughout the world—to start expansion schools or
to serve as missionaries or other ministers—is the
reason for CBC.
When asked about the impact of the Bible colleges,
Andrew replied, “There’s nothing else I know of
22 GospelTruth
that has the potential of changing entire
nations.” By expanding the capacity of the
CBC headquarters in Colorado, not only
will CBCs all over the world receive more
support, but also the growth of new schools
will increase tremendously.
“The Sanctuary project has never been
about a building for me,” added Andrew. “I’m
not doing this to create a legacy. This is about a
tool…a tool that enables us to reach people and
disciple them in a way I otherwise couldn’t.”
New Numbers
As construction for The Barn got underway, Andrew
soon realized that his original cost estimate of $20
million would have to be revised. “We initially projected
the entire project cost of both buildings to be around
$47 million, with The Barn costing about $20 million,”
explained Andrew.
But now it appears that the total cost will be closer
to $53 million. This is due to construction add-ons—
some of which were required by the city, and others
which Andrew decided to do sooner rather than
later. For instance, the city required a water loop to
be completed on an adjacent property, as well as the
addition of a third lane to the entrance road in order to
accommodate emergency vehicles. This alone will cost
the ministry over $3 million.
Additionally, Andrew learned that by doing some
of the work for the second building ahead of time, he
would actually save money. Installing electricity for
the two buildings at once, for example, saved over
$250,000. And he could have decreased the upfront
amount by $4 million had he not done the excavation
for the second building, but it would have cost more to
do it later.
“In retrospect, I feel like it was the right thing to
do,” said Andrew. “But instead of $20 million for the
first phase, as I had thought, and $27 million for the
second phase, we now need nearly $33 million for the
first phase and $20 million for the second.”
Even with all the added expenses to the first phase,
the ministry has over 75 percent of Phase 1 paid for
in cash. Andrew is adamant that he’s “committed to
building debt free regardless of how long it takes.” But
he’s also quick to add, “I believe that the Lord wants us in
by the scheduled completion date of November 2013.”
At the time of writing this article, there is still
just over $7 million needed to complete The Barn.
An average of $500,000 per month has been donated
specifically toward this project from our Foundation
Builders and one-time gifts.
It won’t take much more to get The Barn completely
built and paid for. Andrew asks that people just do
what God puts on their hearts to do. “I’m aware that
many people are struggling financially now, and there
are many other ministries needing support. I really
believe with all my heart that I am doing what the Lord
has led me to do, and I’m pressing ahead. I’m more
convinced than ever that our Bible colleges are one
of the most important ways the Lord has given me
to make a difference. It’s already happening. We are
making a big difference.”

35 Years and Counting: The Future of
AWM
For the past thirty-five years, since the incorporation of Andrew Wommack
Ministries (AWM), the ministry has had quite an amazing history. From its
humble official beginning in Lamar, Colorado, in 1978, to the first Gospel Truth
radio show in Childress, Texas, to the first Gospel Truth television show in 2000, to
the first Gospel Truth Seminar in 2003, to now an incredible new 220,000-squarefoot Charis Bible College (CBC) Colorado headquarters, the ministry has seen
explosive growth in all areas.
As Andrew looks back on his journey with the
Lord—celebrating forty-five years of knowing Him
intimately and experiencing the revelation of His
unconditional love (which ultimately birthed his
ministry) and thirty-five years of the incorporation
of AWM—he can be confident that he’s used every
possible avenue to spread God’s Word. He’s taken
the grace-and-faith message that the Lord’s given him
literally to the ends of the earth through the vehicles
of radio, television, live seminars, the internet, cassette
tapes and CDs, videos, and an array of printed materials.
But when Andrew looks forward into the future of
AWM, what he has the greatest hope and the biggest
vision for is the one thing that he always told himself
he’d never have: a Bible college. Andrew will be the first
to admit that he never liked the idea of starting a Bible
college. In fact, it wasn’t until God showed him how
to develop a college using the current CBC model of
classroom training combined with practical experience
that he ever entertained the idea of having his own.
“I knew that the Lord wanted me to make disciples,
not just converts,” recalls Andrew. “After God showed
me His way of doing Bible college, I knew this was His
avenue for discipleship.”
Charis Bible College opened its doors in the fall
of 1994, and the rest, as they say, is history. Now in its
nineteenth year, CBC has grown to thirty-four schools,
with an additional five or six to be added during 2013.
CBCs dot the globe, with schools in Central and South
America, Africa, Asia, Europe, and of course, the
United States.
As Andrew looks to the future, he ultimately sees
hundreds of CBCs all over the world. “In the long
term, the Bible colleges are what’s going to make
Spring 2013 25
35 Years and Counting: The Future of AWM
the biggest difference in reaching people. The new
CBC campus currently under construction will lay
the groundwork for us to reach tens of thousands
of people.” (See “Building ‘The Barn’” on p. 22 for
details on the new campus.)
“At this point in my life,” continues Andrew, “I’d
rather teach people how to pray than to pray for them.
Through the Bible colleges, I can do just that. I know
that my teachings on television and on CDs touch
people, but in some cases, it may just be for a short
time. What really changes people are the Bible colleges
because they produce disciples.”
Currently there are over 3,000 CBC students
worldwide, including those who are studying through
the correspondence courses. There are more people
involved in the extension schools than there are in the
CBC Colorado school, which presently has 577 students.
“My vision,” says Andrew, “is to have our Colorado
school grow to at least 3,000 students, which can’t
happen until we have a larger facility. If we keep the
same ratio of Colorado to worldwide students as we
have now, that would mean there would be about
15,000 students in our extension schools.”
When asked what timeframe he projects for such
growth, he replied, “I’m turning sixty-four this year, so
it needs to be soon!”
Andrew also envisions having central hubs in
different parts of the world to support the various
extension schools. “All of our other schools are
dependent on our Colorado school. This is where
we make our videos and other materials to distribute
to the colleges, and this is where we have our annual
directors’ meeting and other centralized programs.
It will eventually be important to have hubs in other
places as well.” The next potential hub may be in
Russia, where CBC leaders have a vision to start 1,000
new schools within five years!
Aside from the colleges, television is another vehicle
Andrew is looking to expand. After adding a daily show
to TBN a while back, a second broadcast was added to
DayStar in 2012. This broadcast was aired in the afternoon,
which was a new market for AWM, as all of its previous
programming slots were in the morning or evening.
“We now want to add broadcasts in the evening in
order to pull in a totally different audience,” explains
6 GospelTruth

GospelTruth
Andrew. “Right now, our broadcasts cover the U.S.,
and 3.2 billion people around the world have access
to our program. We’re looking to just add additional
broadcasts at this point, not necessarily new networks.”
One change that Andrew’s followers will see at
the start of this year is the structure and quantity of
Gospel Truth Seminars. For years, he and a small staff,

along with volunteers, traveled throughout the U.S.
conducting these seminars several times a year. He
also presented Gospel Truth Seminars in select locations
overseas. In 2013, Andrew will be holding events in
seven new areas, but instead of the usual Thursdaythrough-Saturday format, each event will only be for
one evening.
Andrew is calling these shorter events Gospel Truth

days, so it makes sense to do the shorter rallies,” says
Andrew. “It saves us money on travel expenses, and we
don’t need to take as many people with us, so they’re
not being pulled away from their jobs at the ministry.”
In general, Andrew would like to eventually see a
decreased travel schedule in his future. When he travels
overseas, he prefers to hold meetings back to back so
that he can return home sooner. But that often means
little sleep on the road and a longer recovery time once
he gets home.
When asked about upcoming short- and long-term
goals for the ministry, Andrew admits to not having
specific goals: “God has never given me goals per se.
I do best when I just maintain my relationship with
Him and listen for His leading. He tells me what to do
one step at a time, and that’s what I do. I’ve never set
goals for myself. It’s not until after I get involved with
something—like the Bible college or television—that
I can actually see what’s going on and what God wants
to do with it. I rarely know what’s happening ahead of
time. I just try to be obedient to what I hear from God.”
After thirty-five successful years of ministry, that
strategy seems to be working quite well. And it’s
probably good advice for all of us. As Andrew states,
“There’s a lot less stress to life this way. If you just
seek the Lord, I can guarantee you will be better off in
the future than you are now. He will make everything
work out.” GT

Andrew Wommack
President & Founder
Dear Fellow Ministers:
For years, friends have asked me to start a ministers’ association. They tell me they feel
disconnected and isolated. They say they need the friendships of other like-minded ministers and
that they are looking for support and encouragement. I’ve prayed about this for years, and it’s time
to act.
We have developed, the Association of Related Ministries International. If you’re a pastor,
traveling teacher or evangelist, church staff member, or a minister from a parachurch organization,
you’re invited to be a part.
I believe that the Lord has uniquely positioned Andrew Wommack Ministries (AWM) and
Charis Bible College (CBC) to accomplish this. Through CBC, its staff, and a network of ministry
professionals, we are able to bring extensive resources to the table.
My purpose for ARMI is to serve you. My determination is to ensure that ARMI never becomes
self-serving. I believe that this new organization will help ministers like you from across our nation
and around the world fulfill their calling.
God bless you,
Andrew Wommack

Andrew Wommack Ministries of Europe
Welcomes
David Illingworth
Pure gold streams of water poured from a waterfall, emptying into a serene,
shimmering gold pool. As David Illingworth gazed upon the beauty of the scene,
he sensed the Lord beckoning him to stand in the pool under the golden waterfall.
David obeyed and as he did, the gold water was absorbed into every fiber of his
being. At that moment, he realized he wasn’t standing under a waterfall made of
water but, rather, of God’s pure, unconditional love.
After receiving this life-changing vision in 2009,
David knew without a doubt that God was calling him
into kingdom service and out of the corporate world
he had known his entire life. “At first I didn’t know
what God was calling me to do,” says David. “I just felt
compelled to learn more about God and His love.”
A year prior, David was exposed to Andrew
Wommack Ministries Europe (AWME) when a friend
was diagnosed with cancer. David was given Andrew’s
teaching God Wants You Well, and it completely changed
the way he thought about and prayed for healing.
Andrew taught God’s Word in a way that David had
never heard before, and he wanted to hear more. In
the fall of 2009, he enrolled in the Charis Bible College
(CBC) correspondence course from his home in
England.
After devouring the lessons, David was ready to
move to Walsall and begin his second year at CBC. His
wife, Lesley, wasn’t thrilled with the idea at first. But
God spoke to her heart, and the Illingworths were off
to Walsall. Upon graduating in 2011, David and Lesley
decided to return for a third year.
“During my second year, God told me He wanted
me to get to know Him. But during my third year, He
said He needed me to get to know myself,” recalls
David. By the end of David’s third year, God’s love had
given him an unshakable hope, solidifying his faith and
enabling him to minister in God’s grace. “I grew to
understand who I am in God’s love, which has released
peace into my heart,” explains David.
After their third year at CBC, the Illingworths
didn’t know where to go next. “I had no plans and no
open doors,” says David. “God just kept telling me
to wait.” With his vast business background in sales,
management, and organizational consulting, along with
his global experiences from traveling to over seventyfive countries, there were numerous paths in the
natural he could have pursued. But instead of pushing
Spring 2013 39
Andrew Wommack Ministries Europe Welcomes David Illingworth
doors open, he simply waited on God. The payoff came
in the form of a phone call.
“I received a call one day informing me that I was
being considered as the new CEO of AWME,” recalls
David. “As I thought about it, I realized the position
perfectly fulfilled all that God had shown me and
prepared me for over the years.”
In September 2012, David took the helm at
AWME, taking over for Will Graham who had stepped
down after serving as director since 2005. Under Will’s
leadership, teaching materials have been translated
into many European, African, and Asian languages,
and Walsall became home for AWME and CBC West
40 GospelTruth
Midlands. But Will’s heart was primarily that of a
pastor, and in May 2012, the opportunity arose for him
to return as a full-time pastor to a growing church.
Now that David is on board, he hopes to
concentrate on developing relationships within the
surrounding communities as well as nearby churches.
“Many of the churches in the area see us as undermining
their authority. We’re working on building trust by
partnering with them to serve those in our cities,” says
David. He’s confident that once those in Walsall and
beyond taste of God’s love through these relationships,
they will want to be a part of what AWME has to offer.

Where Are They Now?
Mark and Charla Eastwood
Mark and Charla Eastwood met in rural Kansas in
1990, and both truly believed they were born again.
But when they realized that neither of their lives
showed any visible fruit of the peace and joy that Jesus
has promised to those who follow Him, they knew
something wasn’t right.
As they sought the Lord, He led them to watch
Kenneth Copeland’s television program, where they
heard truths of God’s Word that they had never before
been taught. Once they got a glimpse of all God had for
them, they became immersed in learning more of His
Word and His ways: “We learned about divine healing,
which we knew nothing about,” says Mark. “I prayed
for Charla, and the sinus headaches she’d been plagued
with almost daily for more than two decades were gone,
never to return. We were off and running!”
After several years of walking with the Lord in a
Spirit-led relationship, God put it on their hearts to
attend Bible college. They had no idea of where to even
begin searching for a Bible college, but God did. God
led Mark into a conversation on his construction job
site one day, and he was given a cassette tape of one of
Andrew’s teachings.
After learning more about Andrew and his ministry,
they also discovered that he had a Bible college. At
the time, Charis Bible College (CBC) Colorado was
Andrew’s only college, so the Eastwoods began their
studies via the correspondence program. After finishing
their first year at CBC, they relocated to Colorado
Springs to complete the second-year program.
At CBC, the Eastwoods learned about God’s
grace and love, how to live victorious Christian lives,
and how to pray effectively—for themselves and for
others. Charla recalls, “We were trained to minister. We
volunteered on the prayer line, we effectively ministered
discipleship, and we even traveled to other countries
to minister.” In May of 2001, the Eastwoods became
graduates of CBC Colorado.
Upon graduation, Mark and Charla returned to
Kansas and began serving as prayer ministers at Gospel
Truth Seminars around the country. “Using the training
we had received at school, along with the opportunity
for practical application, we were able to minister God’s
love and grace to hundreds—seeing signs, wonders,
and miracles following,” says Mark.
During this time, God arranged many divine
appointments for the Eastwoods, and they began holding
local Bible studies and meetings, where they taught the
Discipleship Evangelism program while ministering and
praying for people. In 2011, God opened a door for
them to intern with CBC Kansas City when the director,
Cody Hull, relocated to Houston to start a new CBC.
In March 2012, the Eastwoods were chosen to take the
helm as directors at CBC Kansas City.
“The 2012-2013 school year has been an exciting
one,” says Charla. “The college relocated, we have allnew classes for first-year students, and we have hungry
students who are learning and growing quickly…. Our
second-year class has already been on a missions trip
to Nicaragua, where they saw blind eyes opened and
many physical ailments healed, along with salvations
and baptisms in the Holy Spirit.”
Mark and Charla have caught Andrew’s vision of
planting Charis Bible Colleges all over the world. They
have seen firsthand how the message of God’s goodness
and grace that is taught at CBC is both life giving and
life changing. As the newest directors of CBC Kansas
City, the Eastwoods have the opportunity to impact
their home community—and ultimately the world—in
a bigger way than they ever thought possible. And it all
started with a teaching tape that led them to CBC over
ten years ago. GT
