Brokenness: allowing intimacy with the Holy Spirit

A seven-day water-only fast can open what years of striving could not — an outpouring of the Spirit’s gifts according to 2 Peter 1:5–7.

The invitation

From the laboratory to the altar

Michael was an internationally known scientist — thirty-nine peer-reviewed papers, two U.S. patents. Then a bicycle, a car, a tire over his head, unemployment, and a long walk through brokenness.

Out of that wreckage came a simple word: yieldedness clears the way for the Holy Spirit. In 2023 the Spirit told Michael that a seven-day water-only fast would stand in for a long season of crushing — and open the gifts of 2 Peter 1:5–7.

For churches

Retreats — host one, or come sit among us

Nothing is scheduled yet. That is not a closed door. If your church can host, or if you want to attend when one is formed, write Michael. Kenyan guest speakers travel with the word. The American theme is simple: Overcoming strongholds in your life.

“Their yieldedness and brokenness cleared the way for the Holy Spirit to take control.”

A word from the road

Testimonies are already growing

After the Kenya trips, people who completed the seven-day fast began to speak. Their stories will live here as they are ready to be shared. If the fast has marked you, write Michael.
