Pastor James’ Faithful Witnesses & References
At FHC we are blessed to have many prophetic intercessors who are faithful witnesses and solid character references. A healthy prophetic ministry is established on excellent stewardship, utilizing prophetic scribes and faithful witnesses to document and ground signs and wonders in integrity. By accurately recording revelations, our scribes create a transparent, time-stamped record, ensuring prophetic accountability and excellence.
This process honors the biblical command to "test all things; hold fast what is good" (1 Thessalonians 5:21) and brings order to the prophetic realm. Like the scribe Baruch recording the words of Jeremiah, this dedicated documentation provides a lasting record that can be weighed against Scripture and later confirmed when the Rhema word comes to pass, building the trust necessary for a ministry to truly edify the Body of Christ.
Furthermore, we operate under the standard that "by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall be established" (2 Corinthians 13:1). The presence of faithful witnesses to verify signs and wonders is our way of protecting the observer and honoring the Lord’s holiness. It ensures that what we present is substantiated, transparent, and consistent with God's character.
We do not simply "go with the flow" without discernment; we "test the spirits" (1 John 4:1) to ensure they are of God. This commitment to verification ensures that the testimonies in this book are not mere opinions, but substantiated accounts of God’s activity, aligning with Revelation 19:10: "For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy."
Stacy Kempter: Having served in James’s ministry for over six years, I can personally vouch for his integrity and the accuracy of his prophetic revelatory gifting. I am included on his prophetic email list, and I witnessed him prophesy the first four signs included in this book, long before they came to pass. His ministry is marked by a genuine anointing and undeniable supernatural signs. God uses him to prophesy, work healing miracles and deliver God’s children from demons.
Rita Kukuk: As a member of Father Heart Church since 2019, I have known Pastor James Crawford for seven years. In that time, I have had the privilege of observing his life and leadership firsthand. As the founder and lead pastor of Father Heart World Online Church, he brings over 20 years of experience in pastoring, counseling, and discipleship to people from all walks of life.
I have seen him facilitate the restoration of families, marriages, and professional relationships. Over the years, he has poured himself out for his congregation and guests alike through the preaching of the Word, prophecy, deliverance, and inner healing. He leads with unwavering integrity, passion, and sacrifice; his selfless dedication to those who are hurting is a testament to his consistent character.
Pastor James is a champion of growth and reconciliation. He corrects with love, redirects with kindness, and leads with deep conviction. He teaches us how to hear from God intimately and how to maintain a humble posture in prayer and service. His approach to the prophetic is marked by a reverence for the Lord and a bold commitment to truth. I have personally witnessed the accuracy of his prophetic gift, manifested through signs and wonders that align perfectly with God’s Word—free from manipulation or personal agenda.
Truly an apostle who loves both the Lord and His people, James refuses to engage in slander or negative campaigns. He remains committed to restoration, following the Lord’s leading rather than his own interests. Because of his integrity and commitment to his apostolic mandate, I trust him implicitly to address error and deception in both the church and the world.
Jacqueline Kisciras: Having served as a minister at FHC for the last 12 years, currently as an elder and lay pastor, I have seen firsthand how Pastor James serves God’s sheep with profound integrity and compassion. His prophetic gift is astoundingly accurate as we have all witnessed many supernatural signs to be confirmed by God’s power.
Throughout my tenure, I have watched him nurture the lost, offer restoration to the brokenhearted, and foster a loving environment through gentle guidance and renewal. In all my years working alongside him, I have never seen Pastor James give up on anyone. Whether he is sharing the Gospel, offering prophetic encouragement, or ministering healing and deliverance, he consistently reflects the heart of the Father.
He is deeply committed to counseling those in need and empowering the congregation by teaching us all how to prophesy, grow in our spiritual gifts, and—most importantly— hear the Father’s voice for ourselves. His endurance is remarkable; I’ve even watched him minister healing and deliverance for over four hours at a time to ensure no one is left behind.
Melinda Maynor: As James’ biological sister and a staff member at Father Heart Church, I have served under his leadership since May 2021. I have witnessed firsthand the remarkable prophetic accuracy and supernatural ministry he operates in, which clearly stems from his close walk with God. James possesses a profound love for people; I have seen his compassion in action as he labors tirelessly for hours in mass deliverance, ministering to the sick, the lost, and the hurting. Having been personally transformed by this ministry, I trust him completely and offer my full, unreserved endorsement of James Crawford.
Tammy Eagleson: For seven of FHC’s thirteen years of existence, this ministry has been my home and my mission. Serving as a licensed minister under Pastor James Crawford has been a masterclass in leadership; I see his integrity and humility in action every day. The spiritual atmosphere here is incredible—we see prophetic accuracy and miracle healings on a weekly basis. But beyond the signs and wonders, there is a deep commitment to teaching the Word and discipling nations. I am so incredibly excited to be part of a team that helps people transform into who they were born to be.
