You won’t want to miss today’s “Marcus and Joni”, with special guests Dennis Jernigan and Pastor Bobby Conner.
Dennis Jernigan is a singer-songwriter of contemporary Christian music. He is native to Oklahoma, and headquarters a music-based Christian ministry from there. Jernigan now lives in Muskogee, Oklahoma with his wife and their nine children. Jernigan is a self-identified post-gay, and has been married to his wife for more than 25 years. Jernigan is a graduate of Oklahoma Baptist University.
A primary source of inspiration for Jernigan’s message and music is an experience he describes as his deliverance from homosexuality. Jernigan states that this began during a 2nd Chapter of Acts concert in Norman, Oklahoma.[1][2] Jernigan believes his prior identification as homosexual was related to an erroneous childhood perception that he had been rejected by his father.
Following the experience at the concert, Jernigan developed a ministry based on his personal experience, which he shares at churches and other locations around the world. He has also campaigned against the proposed Hate Crimes Bill (H.R. 1592), saying that the legislation’s passage would strip him of his right to speak freely about his self-identification as ex-gay.[3] However,in a concert at Wynne Baptist Church, Jernigan stated that he does not wish to be labeled as “ex-gay,” but instead as “reborn” or as “[God’s] new creation.”
Jernigan voluntarily resigned his position as vice-chairman from Exodus International in June 2012 after it was revealed that he appeared (inadvertently or otherwise) to be a supporter of anti-sodomy laws in Jamaica – a country long known to be violently dangerous for homosexual people.
This “Gentle Giant” is uniquely anointed with refreshing humor and razor-sharp prophetic accuracy which has been documented around the world. Bobby’s dynamic capacity to release outstanding demonstrations of the miraculous — healings, signs and wonders — reveals the very heart of the Father toward us! Surviving a dramatic abortion attempt by his mother, being rescued again by the hand of God from drug dealing and suicide, the story of Bobby Conner is a display of a man who now walks in his God-ordained destiny to set others free! Out of his deep intimacy with Jesus Christ, Bobby is super-sensitive to what the Holy Spirit is now doing throughout the world! The Father heart of God, expressed so beautifully through Bobby and his wife, Carolyn, lastingly transforms lives in every service.
Bobby has an extensive ministry background as a Southern Baptist pastor and he ministers in a high level, proven prophetic anointing. He believes his calling is to equip the Body of Christ to hear and discern God’s voice in these times. He is well-loved and best known the world over for his sensitivity to and leading of the Holy Spirit. Highly esteemed as an internationally acclaimed conference speaker, Bobby has ministered effectively to over 45 foreign countries as well here in the states for many years.
