Personal Request
Apr 8, 2025Tap to summarizeA PERSONAL REQUEST This newsletter is a significant update on the amazing adventure God has for me as His storyteller. And it includes a request–a favor I want to ask of you. I am at a significant turning point in my own destiny with God as a writer. God has showed up for me in a big way. And…you can help open the door into the next part of this amazing adventure. It’s all described in the video. Also: Check out My NEW author website DougMcMurry.com.

Transcribe →Convergence
Feb 18, 2025Tap to summarizeCONVERGENCE Every fresh Revival tide in history has reintroduced some forgotten insight of God’s word, some fresh aspect of the “manifold wisdom” of God that has been forgotten or ignored by Christians. This approaching Revival tide is no exception. So: what’s the unique emphasis that God is stressing for us to re-learn just now? The answer: John 17:21. “That all of them may be one….” Until now, Christians have been content to remain separated from each other in their little denominational ghettoes. But today God is calling us to converge together more and more, to pray together for the triumph of His Kingdom. He’s calling us to be, simply, citizens of the Kingdom of God. The Jesus we have in common becomes more important than issues we have allowed to divide us in the past. I have found that, as I have acted on this calling from God, and stepped out toward other groups of Christians–other than the one I grew up with–God has honored that, and brought extraordinary blessings in the long run. This video describes that journey, and I invite you on that journey too. And while I’ve got your attention, let me just mention that I am in process of developing a new author website at DougMcMurry.com. It isn’t quite ready yet, but before another month is out, it will be. So check it out. ~Doug~
Transcribe →AN INVITATION
Jan 17, 2025Tap to summarizeAN INVITATION What do people mean when they speak of “the power of God? “ Have you ever walked through a season when the power of God was on display? I believe we are going to have more and more displays of God’s power in the next few years. Let’s get ready! That’s why I’m reserving my Monday nights beginning February to teach a class on Zoom as explained in this video. I invite you to join me on Mondays to take a journey with me through the 2000 year track record of the power of God. You can gain a much clearer appreciation of who God is and what He can do. Won’t you join me on this journey? Doug
Transcribe →How Slaves Were Freed
Dec 17, 2024Tap to summarizeHow Slaves Were Freed This is my final video using the Second Great Awakening in England to demonstrate how prayer can lead to Revival which leads to Jesus distributing destinies which leads to the transformation of a whole society, which can lead to world transformation. Here I conclude the story of how England managed to get to the last of these transformations–literally freeing hundreds of thousands of slaves world-wide. We don’t usually think of Jesus being an emancipator of slaves. We think of Him as the Savior and Redeemer of people for eternal life–which He is. But He also has promised to “destroy the works of the devil–” and slavery is a work of the devil. And clearly, Jesus took aim at the international slave trade during and following the year 1800. Before I go on and show you the exact same pattern in the new-born United States of America, I want to, next month, share with you what’s been happening in my life over this past year. God has been encouraging me in big ways and giving me new marching orders. So next month’s newsletter will be full of personal news. Doug
Transcribe →Newest News – OCT 2024
Oct 3, 2024Tap to summarizeI’m interrupting my series about John Newton to give you some news about myself, a new book project that I am currently writing and my new relationship with George Otis, Jr. Always an adventure! —Doug
Transcribe →John Newton III
Aug 9, 2024Tap to summarizeJohn Newton 3 This video continues my series tracing the track record of Holy Spirit movements as relates to the abolition of slavery. It presents the unsung hidden role of John Newton in abolishing slavery in England, through his mentoring relationship with William Wilberforce. There are many, many lessons we can gain about transformational Revival if we would just open our eyes and look at what God has already done over the years. I invite you to get informed. Jesus comes to destroy the works of the devil!
Transcribe →John Newton II
Jul 9, 2024Tap to summarizeIn this continuing story of John Newton, I want to show you the contrast between “the Christian religion” and The Kingdom of God. Two different things. I show how God transitioned England out of a religion and into His transformational kingdom —and destined a few leaders to destroy a work of the devil (the slave trade). In the process, we can see one example of how King Jesus uses massive prayer, and then distributes destinies to individuals like—in this case, the English pastor and hymn-writer, John Newton. We can look for Him to do something similar today. Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. —Doug
Transcribe →John Newton
Jun 11, 2024Tap to summarizeJohn Newton, the man who wrote “Amazing Grace,” led a most extraordinary life. Few people realize the key role he played in the abolition of slavery. This video offers the first half of his story in which I show that if any of us is to become a world changer, it is not because of our greatness, but because of God’s grace. Sometimes God uses the most unlikely people to change the world. ~Doug~
Transcribe →Jesus the Emancipator V
May 3, 2024Tap to summarizeJesus the Emancipator V This video, the fifth in a series, uncovers the part King Jesus has played in eradicating the institution of slavery in world history. Is it a mere coincidence that the two countries that fully and permanently abolished slavery were the same two countries that were enjoying a Revival tide leading to a “Second Great Awakening”? It was my mentor, Dick Simmons, who first pointed this out to me years ago, and in Glory Through Time, Volume Two (pp. 300-400), it became a major theme in my writing: how Revival has led to the transformation of nations because Jesus destroys the works of the devil. I just enjoy showing what Jesus does as King of kings. On another subject, have I mentioned George Otis yet?–the man who for the last 25 years has been videotaping stories from around the world, of what happens “when God comes to town?” My path crossed with George’s at Pine Ridge Indian Reservation last year, where George has been filming a wonderful move of God to transform the infamous alcohol town of Whiteclay, Nebraska. Some of us believe this is just the beginning of a great move of the Holy Spirit among the First Nations. Now George will be here in our area in Virginia on May 13, 14 and 15, to show us a sneak peek of his 90-minute film, “The Gates of Whiteclay.” If you are anywhere in Central Virginia, please consider attending, though I don’t quite have the details worked out yet. But you can text me at 804-347-3303 for information a week or two in advance. He will be showing his film at the Chickahominy Tribal Center in Charles City on Monday, in Williamsburg on Tuesday, and in Richmond at Maps Global, on Wednesday. ~Douglas~
Transcribe →Jesus The Emancipator IV
Apr 9, 2024Tap to summarizeIn this video I compare the long and pathetic history of atheistic revolutions with the transformational track record of the Kingdom of God. Both of these options offer hope for the transformation of nations Both promise to become an avenue of freedom and Justice. But only one of these options has a positive track record of actually producing freedom and Justice. This video is the forth in my series to show how Jesus’ unique method of bringing God’s Kingdom and righteousness has succeeded in delivering the world out of human slavery as an institution. By the way let me add an announcement. I’ve been working with George Otis, jr and a group of Lakota people in Pine Ridge Indian Reservation over the last eight months and I can now announce that George’s next Transformation video is complete and awaiting public distribution. Titled “The Gates of Whiteclay” it shows how the power of God has transformed the community of Whiteclay, Nebraska, an alcohol town on the southern border of the reservation. We believe that what George describes in this video is only just the beginning of a much larger move of the Spirit of God. Doug
