One of Don’s stronger giftings is prophetic teachings from the Scriptures, which helps each believer to experience maturity and completeness in Christ based on Colossians 1:27b, 28-29...Christ in you, the hope of glory: whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ. He also mentors several leaders in this process.
Don’s vision is to see the people of the body of Christ restored and serving God in their rightful position as kings and priests of the Most High God. He desires to see the body of Christ once again come under the full authority and leadership of Christ Jesus.
