Amen Church, a Dallas-based church that had collapsed spectacularly and permanently closed its doors, has reportedly put an end to its sorrow.
Three months ago, Dr. Field Harrison, founder of the Amen Church, surprised attendees at the ‘Amen Nights’ worship concert by criticizing the Bible’s source and openly supporting LGBTQ.
“There are a few individuals who want to view the whole Bible as equal, just not this guy,” he told the crowd. After hearing what was said, Harrison was shocked to see the audience rise to leave instead of speaking up for the voiceless.
When was the Amen Church founded?
By the conclusion of 2021, Dr. Field Harrison and his wife Sabrina founded Amen Church in Dallas, Texas. It is worth noting that Dr. Harrison’s expertise lies in dentistry rather than theology, distinguishing his professional background.
Harrison made a heartfelt commitment to contribute tithes to charitable causes, specifically benefiting homeless shelters and hospitals. This exceptional act sets the church apart, as it operates solely with volunteers and doesn’t employ any paid staff members.
He says, “You don’t have to be a pastor to grow the church,” in a message that has since been removed from their “About Me” page. Everyone who follows Jesus is obligated to do it.
A year ago, he received a diagnosis of tinnitus, which caused intense ringing and made it difficult for him to fall asleep. Harrison claimed he realized it was time to found his church at that point.
I felt called to do it before my ears began to ring out of the blue. He stated that I just knew it was time when my ears started to ring.
He therefore set out to discover the ideal location and succeeded. For a year, Harrison has rented the Meyerson Symphony Center to hold Sunday morning services.
Harrison remarked, “I went through and thought how fantastic if we could have church here.”
What did Harrison’s wife claim about the whole scenario?
His wife Sabrina claimed that when she was reading the Bible, the church’s name just occurred to her. So that’s the one word she reads every day when reading the Bible, and it’s one of God’s names. Sabrina Harrison remarked, “So when I read ‘amen,’ I knew right away.
The Harrisons claimed that their church is special because everyone who works there is a volunteer, including them.
Harrison stated, “We want to improve the church’s reputation so that no one can accuse this church of being self-serving or self-promoting.”
He claimed that they intend to donate all of the money they get in donations to the neighborhood. The Harrisons claimed that they are aware of how unique what they are doing is, but that’s the point—to reach the marginalized.
As Harrison stated, “I am so passionate about my faith and in this season, being doers of the word and not just hearers and put our faith into action,”
The Harrisons claimed that a string of miracles brought them to the location, and they now hope that it will inspire others.
Why Amen Church didn’t pay the staff?
Amen Church will return all donations to the community and be completely upfront about where the money goes. “At the moment, we’re planning on listing how much in donations we received that week and where we gave it,” Harrison said.
“We’re just really trying to get our hands and feet dirty and just be there to serve and help,” Sabrina added. “And take care of all of your needs.”
The pair recognized their church plant’s uniqueness, aiming to reach those who felt excluded from traditional places of worship.
“When God asks us to do something, one small act of obedience brings the blessing, Until we go out in faith and trust God to accomplish the impossible, we are unaware of the impact our everyday acts of obedience will have. God gives us His grace when we accept our shortcomings. His mercy suffices. He is dependable.” reads a message on the church’s Instagram account.
Field and Sabrina Harrison prioritize growing Jesus’ Church over building a brand.
The church’s website states that it is “creating a place where people can meet with Jesus, while we share the love of God and the truth of the Gospel.”
Statements regarding affirmation
After the sermon, the church improved its website to better align with its fundamental values by removing the phrase “the bible is inspired” from its statement of faith while not openly addressing the topic of gay affirmation. Dante Bowe, a musician who attends the church, has also been silent.
Despite their already significant and engaged social media following, the musical sermon has completely altered everything.
As a result of embracing homos*xuality, the church’s social media accounts have vanished or been completely deleted.
- Their Facebook page has been taken down.
- Their church website has been removed.
- They removed all of their YouTube sermons and videos.
- Since March 19, they have not posted anything to Instagram.
- Field Harrison, the founder and preacher, has made his Instagram private.
- Additionally, Google is demonstrating its downfall.
After The Service Reactions
President of Gospel Light Society International Daniel Whyte III advises all churchgoers in America and throughout the world to report their pastors
“if they ever deliver a sermon that endorses the evil act of sodomy/homosexuality. This forbids clergy who denounce these evils from acting in the same manner as the members of this church, who left mid-sermon without waiting to do so. “Go, and carry out the same.” That will put an end to these false prophets and false congregations that support the evil practice of sodomy/homosexuality.”
