Going Beyond Ministries with Priscilla Shirer – Fight Against the Real Enemy
Priscilla Shirer (born December 31, 1974) is an American author, motivational speaker, actress, and Christian evangelist. Her father is Dallas mega-church pastor Tony Evans and her brother is Christian entertainer Anthony Evans.
The daughter of Tony Evans, senior pastor of Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship Church in Dallas, Texas,[1] Priscilla grew up well acquainted with the Bible. As a freshman at the University of Houston, she interned with a Christian radio station. Soon listeners were calling the station, inviting Priscilla to speak at their Bible study groups and other events. Soon she was invited to lead a weekly Bible study at the Zig Ziglar Corporation and then to join its speaker team. Priscilla has worked as an independent contractor for CBS and hosted a local television show, but recently she has focused solely on Christian ministry opportunities. She calls Anne Graham Lotz, daughter of evangelist Rev. Billy Graham, her mentor in ministry.
Together the Shirers established Going Beyond Ministries, a speaking bureau featuring Priscilla. The parents of three young boys, the Shirers share ministry and family responsibilities. While Priscilla continues to minister full-time, Jerry manages his schedule and other business aspects of Going Beyond Ministries.
Priscilla speaks around the world at churches and other events, including the LifeWay Christian Resources-sponsored Going Beyond conference and Deeper Still: The Event, where she shares the stage with Beth Moore and Kay Arthur. She has also authored several books.
Shirer graduated from Duncanville High School and Dallas Theological Seminary, earning a master’s degree from the latter in Biblical Studies.
In 1993, Shirer was a freshman at the University of Houston. Shirer was married in 1999 to Jerry Shirer, former Hilton Hotels executive. The couple has three sons.
In 2013, Shirer was a speaker at the 2013 Women of Faith conference. In 2015, Shirer made her film debut in the Kendrick Brothers film War Room. In October 2016, Shirer was recognized as one of four prominent women of faith during the 10th anniversary of God’s Leading Ladies Life Enrichment Program at The Potter’s House.[1] Shirer also featured at the 47th GMA Dove Awards.
I want to tell you briefly that division
is one of the major strategies of the
enemy to keep us from experiencing the
victory that is rightfully ours as sons
and daughters if he can divide you
underneath the roof of your own home
listen if you are married or you have
children make sure that you are fighting
against the schemes of the enemy to
bring division underneath the roof of
your own house if you’re in a church
where you’re experiencing fracture and
dissension and division would you
recognize that it’s not her that’s your
problem or him that’s your problem
because we do not struggle against flesh
and blood but against the powers against
the principalities against the world
Force’s of this darkness against the
spiritual forces of wickedness that are
in heavenly places
she is not your problem your coworker
you know that one that one co-worker
that if he says one more thing to you
you go knock him out that one that
person is not your real problem anything
you can see or relate to with your five
physical senses ain’t your real problem
you have an enemy and your enemy is
invisible and because he’s invisible
invisible he wants you to think he’s
also fictional but he’s very real he’s
not a caricature that just fits into a
kid’s storytelling book no he is the
master of disguise and he does not want
you to recognize his fingerprints of
division and derision and a lack of
peace and contention so if you recognize
his fingerprints in your marriage then
stand firm against the scheme of that
enemy if you recognize his fingerprints
in your relationship between you and
your teenager man stands firm against
the schemes of the enemy if you
recognize that in your church or in your
denomination or between denominations
come on y’all we gotta stand firm
against the schemes of the
me
O how I love Priscilla! She is amazing and motivates me and is a constant reminder of my love for people & how I lo long to see all of us win against the works of the enemy.
