Bill Johnson is the Senior Leader of Bethel Church in Redding, California, where he has ministered since 1996, and the cofounder of the Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry (BSSM). A fifth-generation pastor, Bill serves a growing number of churches that have partnered for revival. This apostolic network has crossed denominational lines in building relationships that enable church leaders to walk in both purity and power. Bill is also the popular author of numerous books, including When Heaven Invades Earth and Hosting the Presence. His priority in life has been to learn how to host the presence of God and minister to Him. He is passionate about seeing the kingdom of heaven invade earth across all spheres of influence, with the wisdom of God displayed through the church, government, education, and the arts. Bill travels extensively to share what he has learned through his experience, with the conviction that the only way to increase what has been given is to give it away.
