Chris
I’m here with Dave McKenna, and we’re gathering stoies about how Dunamis has affected our lives and ministries. So, Dave, I’d like you to share a little bit about your story, about how you found your way into Dunamis, and about what impact that has had on your ministry.

A Life-Changing Brochure
I found my way here because of a brochure that arrived on my desk about the Dunamis meeting in Black Mountain, North Carolina in 1996, and I attended that meeting. It was a life-changing experience for me.
Identifying, Understanding, and Overcoming Spiritual Opposition
In my business, I knew I was having spiritual opposition to some of the things that were going on and I had no answers. But when I went to the Dunamis meeting I got answers; I got to where I could understand the work that was going on, understand the strongholds that were against me, and I was able to then move forward from there and move beyond where I was.
Chris
Now, as I’ve heard some of your story before, you’re from the way Eastern part of Canada, and you drove all the way to Black Mountain, NC to attend?
Dave
Well, actually I flew to Atlanta.
Chris
Well, you flew, but still you travelled a long distance in order to come because of that curiosity as to how to deal with that spiritual oppositon. And out of that, it gave you a wonderful theological grid to help understand and then engage it?
Dave
A Life-Changing Shift in Perspective
Yes. It was life-changing. When I read the Bible I read it very differently. I had an understanding of the ministry of Jesus in a way I never had before, and everything came more into context.
Chris
Into much sharper clarity, as well?
Dave
Yes.
