The Books That Prove the New Apostolic Reformation Exists
From NAR to Christ with Dawn Hill
About This Episode
The New Apostolic Reformation is frequently dismissed as something invented by critics or as a political label without a clearly identifiable movement behind it. Yet books written and endorsed by its own leaders repeatedly describe modern apostles and prophets, apostolic networks, apostolic centers, dominion theology, and the transformation of society through apostolic authority.In this episode of From NAR to Christ, Dawn Hill examines a collection of books connected to C. Peter Wagner and other influential leaders within the movement. These publications openly identify the New Apostolic Reformation and explain its beliefs concerning restored apostles, prophetic ministry, church government, spiritual authority, the Seven Mountain Mandate, and cultural dominion.Rather than depending upon accusations from outside critics, Dawn allows the movement’s leaders to speak through their own published words. She also considers why some leaders are now distancing themselves from terminology and teachings they previously promoted.Listen or Watch

The Evidence Is in Their Own Words
The existence and beliefs of the New Apostolic Reformation should not be evaluated merely through labels, political arguments, or the claims of outside critics. Its own leaders have documented their theology, history, authority structures, and ambitions in published books, articles, presentations, and public teaching.Christians must carefully examine these teachings in light of Scripture. The church does not need restored governing apostles, new foundations, or additional spiritual authorities. Believers need Jesus Christ, the true gospel, faithful local churches, and the sufficient Word of God.When teachers attempt to redefine previous claims or distance themselves from terminology they once embraced, Christians should return to the documented evidence and test everything according to Scripture. God’s Word remains the final authority for Christian doctrine, worship, leadership, and life.From NAR to Christ with Dawn Hill
