Episode Overview

In this compelling episode, Ryan Miller sits down with Apostle Kathryn Krick to unpack her remarkable spiritual journey—from small-town beginnings to worldwide ministry leader. Kathryn discusses the progression from a “lukewarm” Christian upbringing to radical encounters with the power of God, leading to her deliverance ministry, founding a church in Los Angeles, and being at the heart of a global revival.
The conversation covers miracles, the biblical basis for deliverance, the importance of surrender, navigating skepticism, revival in the modern church, and preparing the Bride for Jesus’ return.

Kathryn’s Early Life & Spiritual Background

[02:11–05:37]

• Kathryn grew up in a tiny town (Andes, NY) in a humble, Christian family.
• Her parents modeled humility and kindness, but the family didn’t know about the active, “miracle-working” God as seen in Acts.
• Early faith was mainly “by the book.” Kathryn recalls religious routines and rote prayers:
  “I grew up in a Presbyterian church, and it was just like, go by the bulletin...you recite them together, you sing the hymns...it was just like, going through the motions, you know...” – Kathryn [05:37]

Encountering the Holy Spirit & a Shift in Faith

[06:27–09:48]

• As a child, Kathryn sensed she was “different” and had a unique pursuit of God, but through high school and college she was “lukewarm.”
• Moving to LA for acting after college set the stage for her spiritual hunger:
  “As soon as I got to L.A., this hunger erupted in my heart for God like never before…The Bible says, you will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” – Kathryn [11:35]
• Active pursuit led to deep involvement in church, and eventually an encounter with the Holy Spirit.
• Baptism in the Holy Spirit was a turning point:
  “When I was baptized in the Holy Spirit, the fire…burned away the fleshly desires I had before...all I wanted to do was spend time with God.” – Kathryn [15:26]

The Baptism of the Holy Spirit — Understanding & Experiencing

[17:37–19:49]

• Kathryn shares the biblical basis for Holy Spirit baptism and speaking in tongues.
• She explains the biblical model:
  “Our examples in the Bible...people were going to a church service…The apostles are...laying hands on them, and the fire of the Holy Spirit comes upon these people...” – Kathryn [25:28]
• She began to speak in tongues immediately after her baptism, encouraging listeners to seek more of God.

The Road to Surrender & God’s Calling

[33:44–42:04]

• Profound surrender came after her Holy Spirit encounter—letting go of her dreams of a music career.
• A key prophetic encounter:
  • Tanzanian prophet Dr. Jordevi prophesied she would be an apostle and work miracles.
  • Despite feeling unqualified and fearing public speaking, Kathryn obeyed the call, likening her struggle to Moses’ story:
    “God spoke to me in that moment…Just trust me. Just obey, and I will give you the ability.” – Kathryn [37:55]
• She chose radical obedience and trusted God would bring her joy in her calling.

The Humble Beginnings and the “Crushing”

[44:47–47:16]

• The church started as an outdoor worship night with minimal support and few attendees.
  “None of them…came to the worship nights…It was very humble, small beginnings.” – Kathryn [46:35]
• Kathryn endured years of “wilderness”—slow growth, dwindling attendance, and no immediate fruit:
  “He'll take every believer…through a wilderness season where he refines, where he crushes, and that's where you become gold.” – Kathryn [47:20]

Prophecy of Revival and Restoring the Acts Model

[51:10–53:23]

• Dr. Jordevi’s pivotal prophecy: revival was being released, the five-fold ministry restored, and that it would lead to a reformation and purification of the church.
• Kathryn echoes:
  “In this revival…what is going to happen is…it’s a total reformation and transformation and purification of the church…to get us back to what the Acts church was.” – Kathryn [51:37]

Breakthrough: Miracles Online and In Person

[64:57–71:00]

• Following years of posting one-minute videos with minimal views, a video in late 2020 goes viral—bringing 1 million views and thousands of testimonies of online healing and deliverance.
  “Other people wrote, ‘I’ve had anxiety, but I felt something leave me when I watched this video. And now I feel peace.’ A bunch of different testimonies like that...” – Kathryn [00:00/66:51]
• Revival in person began when visitors flocked to Kathryn’s simple outdoor services, experiencing dramatic, undeniable deliverances.
  “That was the first deliverance that took place through my…ministry when I prayed for somebody.” – Kathryn [73:20]
• Church attendance grew from five to 300 in two months, with international visitors and global ministry doors opening.

Navigating Skepticism and the Religious Spirit

[76:47–80:14]

• Ryan raises common skepticism about charismatic gifts, abuses, and faked manifestations.
• Kathryn addresses with humility:
  “You have to be like a child to enter the kingdom…when you are humble and childlike, that’s where you can simply see the truth...God can open up your spiritual eyes to see. This is real, this is fake…” – Kathryn [76:47 / 77:55]
• Discernment comes through humility, not cynicism:
  “Skepticism is a block right away. It's religious in nature...But when you come in with humble, childlike eyes and say, ‘what is this Lord?’…he’s going to direct you and give you the discernment.” – Ryan [79:41]

Encouragement for Potential Leaders & the Reluctant

[80:46–84:03]

• Kathryn encourages those who feel unqualified:
  “God uses the weak and foolish things. So if you feel like you’re unqualified, then you are in the perfect place to be. You are the most qualified by God because God can only use vessels who see themselves rightly.” – Kathryn [80:46]
• Honest admission: years of preaching to dwindling crowds built her dependency and faith, despite self-doubt.

Preparing the Bride: Surrender and the Power of God

[85:04–94:17]

• Ryan and Kathryn agree: preparing the church for Jesus’ return demands radical surrender, not just anticipation.
• Kathryn:
  “The best way to prepare for the return of Jesus is to surrender everything. Really check your heart. Where have you not surrendered to God?...We are called to accept God's power, be transformed, to be a bright light that can attract people...and you can then cast demons out of them.” [85:04/89:50]
• Ryan:
  “If there's one thing...it's receive the power like a child...Because there's End times revival happening right now, and I personally don't want to miss that wave.” [90:52]

Call to Action & Prophetic Prayer

[95:19–98:50]

• Kathryn concludes by inviting listeners to surrender to Jesus, renounce spiritual darkness, and receive the anointing. She prays for deliverance, healing, baptism in the Holy Spirit, and the fire of God to fill and send the listeners.
  “It is God’s will for you to be a vessel of Jesus in his fullness, which means Jesus’s power...Be baptized in the fire of the Holy Spirit in Jesus’ name. May this anointing come upon you now…May miracles take place through you as you speak, as you pray for people. May you walk in authority. May demons tremble as you command them to go in Jesus’ name. Thank you, Jesus...” – Kathryn [95:19]
