New Apostolic Reformation
Not to be confused with New Apostolic Church.
Movement which seeks to establish Christian dominionism
The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) is a Christian supremacist[1] theological belief and controversial movement associated with the far-right[2] that combines elements of Pentecostalism, evangelicalism, and the Seven Mountain Mandate to advocate for spiritual warfare to bring about Christian dominion over all aspects of society, and end or weaken the separation of church and state. NAR leaders often call themselves apostles and prophets. The movement was founded by and is heavily associated with C. Peter Wagner.
Long a fringe movement of the American Christian right, it has been characterized as "one of the most important shifts in Christianity in modern times".[3] The NAR's prominence and power have increased since the 2016 election of Donald Trump as US president. Theology professor André Gagné, author of a 2024 book on the movement, has characterized it as "inherently political" and said it threatens to "subvert democracy".[4] The Southern Poverty Law Center characterizes NAR as "the greatest threat to American democracy that most people have never heard of".[5] American Republican politi

Calvary Chapel Association
Evangelical association of Christian churches
For the record label created by the church, see Maranatha! Music.
Calvary Chapel is an international association of charismaticevangelical churches, with origins in Pentecostalism. It maintains a number of radio stations around the world and operates many local Calvary Chapel Bible College programs.
Beginning in 1965 in Southern California, this fellowship of churches grew out of Chuck Smith's Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa.
History
[edit]The association has its origins in the founding of a Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa (California) in 1965 by pastorChuck Smith of the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel with 25 people.[1][2][3] In 1968 they broke away from Foursquare Church. Prior to Smith, Costa Mesa members spoke of their own vision of becoming part of a massive church movement.[4]
In 1969 Calvary Chapel became a hub in what later became known as the Jesus movement when Smith's daughter introduced him to her boyfriend John Higgins Jr., a former hippie who had become a Christian, and who went on to head the largest Jesus freak movement in history, the Shiloh Youth Revival Centers (1968-1989).[5] John Higgins introduced Smith to Lonnie
