In this episode of the City Church podcast, Mark and Steve discuss making room for the gift of prophecy in a way that honors God, aligns with Scripture, and strengthens the church. They explain that biblical prophecy is not fortune telling, but a way of sharing the heart, revelation, and desired will of God, with Jesus always being glorified and Scripture remaining the final authority. They explore the importance of eagerly desiring spiritual gifts while also maintaining order, humility, accountability, and healthy boundaries. Mark and Steve discuss how prophecy should strengthen, encourage, and comfort people, why prophetic words need to be tested, and the role of church elders in creating safe environments for the gifts of the Holy Spirit to operate. They also encourage believers to grow in prophecy through life groups, prayer meetings, and other settings where people can learn to share words of life, courage, comfort, and strengthening with one another. The conversation closes with an invitation to keep studying Scripture, keep growing, and find the “radical middle” where Jesus is at the center, the Word of God is the final authority, and prophecy is practiced with integrity and accountability.
