About the Author

While pastoring a church in the Northwest U.S., Harold R. Eberle committed himself to an extended period of prayer, which led to an experience with God that changed his life. He came out convinced that before the return of Jesus Christ, the church will rise in glory, unity, and maturity. At that time, Harold left the pastoral ministry and began traveling throughout the world as a prophetic teacher to the Body of Christ. Since 1985, he has been declaring and teaching about the "Apostolic Reformation" which the Church is presently experiencing. This reformation is greater than that of Martin Luther's day. It is demanding a restructuring of the Church around the five-fold ministry, with apostles in leadership positions. This current Reformation is leading to changes in every area of Christianity.

Harold R. Eberle has authored more than 25 books and founded several Bible Colleges in developing nations. He continues to travel the world and oversees Worldcast Ministries and Publishing which is based in Yakima, WA.
