About Me
I'm Tim Bader, creator of the 4 Steps Prophecy School.
I'm a writer, blogger, vlogger, and former church leader, and I train Christians in listening to God and the gift of prophecy.
My heart is to release people to hear God's voice for themselves and others, so they can prophesy with confidence and build one another up in love.

They Say
I joined the 4 Steps Prophecy School to improve my use of prophecy.
It was very factual and helpful to someone not sure about prophecy.

I'm finding all that you are writing very stimulating! New and things that I knew before put together, throws a different light /angle on things I have previously understood in a slightly different way!!

I wanted to say that I am grateful to God and to you, for the paraphrased Psm 23...
I am printing it and put in my car. It can help calm me down and keep my tongue from the rants I sometime use.

...the teaching is thorough, Biblical and well structured. It was interesting to see how well it lined up with what I was taught before. That was the confirmation I needed.
[I learned that] I may say what I hear with boldness if I have the sense that the timing is right, regardless of the response. The response is not my responsibility! Thank you for that teaching.

I have been going through something personal and have felt away from God. This blog post has helped to show me he has been there through my struggle helping me along my journey. I really needed to read this. Thank you.

I would recommend it and I have recommended it to a close friend.
My Ah ha moment was where you mentioned the open ended questions and even suggested that one could stay in touch with someone you've ministered to and pray for them.

The 4 Steps Prophecy School is very interesting, with an easy to follow format. Practical ways to spend time getting into Gods presence were invaluable. I would recommend that everybody from housewife to Managing director should do this course!
