In this powerful episode of the That They May Be One podcast, we sit down with Fr. Mathias Thelen, founder of Encounter Ministries, to hear his remarkable testimony of encountering Christ and being baptized in the Holy Spirit. Fr. Mathias shares how God called him to a ministry that today “exists to unleash the transforming power of the Holy Spirit in the world through teaching, equipping, and activating disciples to demonstrate the love of God through the power of the Holy Spirit.” Through that ministry, Fr. Mathias also answers the urgent call to proclaim and pursue unity in the Body of Christ.

Discover how spiritual charisms and baptism in the Holy Spirit connect to our call to Christian unity, why humility is essential for bridging divides, and what Fr. Mathias sees for the present and future of unity in the Church. This conversation will inspire you to seek deeper renewal and work toward the unity Christ prayed for.

In this episode, hosts Dr. David Cole and Adriana Gonzalez sit down with Dr. Ralph Martin, a renowned theologian, author, and featured voice in the upcoming docudrama, That They May Be One, to explore the Holy Spirit's work in fostering Christian unity.

Dr. Martin shares his personal journey with baptism in the Holy Spirit and how it radically changed his life and deepened his understanding of God's desire for unity in the Body of Christ. He also reflects on his experience in Charismatic covenant communities and the prophetic word he delivered at the historic 1977 Kansas City conference that called the Church to renewal and unity.

Not only has Dr. Martin prophesied powerful words from the Lord in the past, he is also a prophetic voice today. Listen in to hear Dr. Martin’s spiritual sense of the current state of the Church and what her future holds.
