Global Harvest Ministries

Last updated

Global Harvest Ministries (GHM; now Global Spheres) is a Christian parachurch organisation, focusing on evangelism and church planting around the world. It focuses on the 40/70 window, an area in Christian missions that has been historically Christian but is now becoming post-Christian. [1]

The organisation was founded in 1991 by C. Peter Wagner, leader of the neo-charismatic and apostolic–prophetic New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) movement. GHM founded a number of NAR networks, including the International Coalition of Apostolic Leaders (ICAL) headed by apostle John P. Kelly and the Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders (ACPE). Additionally, it was a "major and visible facilitator and stimulator of spiritual mapping in the 1990s". [2] It became Global Spheres in 2012, and as of 2023, is led by Chuck Pierce. [3] As of January 1, 2023, Global Spheres became a DBA of Glory of Zion International Ministries, which is also led by Chuck Pierce. [4]
