Winger's church practice: open to Spirit-prompted words but does not structure services around spiritual gifts; anti-normative posture.

Does This Verse Teach Cessationism? And a Bit On Bethel. 1 Cor 13_10-12 00:48:16 – 00:49:49

Q&A response about how gifts function in his church.

Winger's church does not typically emphasize or program for gifts in regular services. However, they are genuinely open to someone having a word from the Lord and sharing it (not from the stage, not interrupting the service, but person-to-person). Winger personally welcomes when people say they feel prompted to share something with him. The overall posture is open but not expectant in a structured way.
