It was great to have Craig speak in chapel at Dallas Baptist University. We had about 1,200 students present the day he spoke, and they were all touched by the depth of his spiritual message. I have known Craig since he was in junior high school, and I have always known him to be of the highest character and integrity. He and his wife, Rachel, are DBU graduates, and we are so proud of them.

Craig and Rachel Denison are a tremendous gift- they are humble, authentic and focused on seeing people’s hearts ignite with a revelation of the love of God, not just on stage when they are leading worship or speaking and everyone is watching, but also in coffee shop conversations with the ones and the twos and in the secret place alone with God.

When Craig Denison came to speak at the weekly Men’s Bible Study at our facility, I was not sure what to expect. After listening to him speak, sing and share his testimony, I was impressed by his sincerity, transparency, and heart for God. Craig’s openness and vulnerability created an atmosphere of warmth and reassurance that allowed me and my men to become vulnerable as the Holy Spirit moved us. His personal testimony was raw and potent and reflected God’s influence in his life. Craig is one of the few men I have met who really has a firm grasp on the difference between just going through the motions to keep up appearances and having a real, personal relationship with the Father. Craig stressed that the key to really unlock the power of the kingdom of God is “to live by the Spirit, and…not gratify the desires of the flesh.” (Galatians 5:16) To also seek God’s presence continually, and rest in the power he imparts to us – a message so many of us forget. I am confident that Craig’s ministry is ordained by God and will produce much fruit in His Kingdom.
