In 1985, Brother Hansen received a vision from the Lord
that totally changed the direction of his ministry and his life. He saw himself traveling
throughout the nations of the world exhorting the church to prepare their lives for the
return of Jesus Christ. In the vision, Brother Hansen became intuitively aware of the
concern of Our Lord of the spiritual condition of the church. The Lord revealed that many
of the churches throughout the world have followed the example of their leaders; they are,
by example, trusting in themselves and the "value system" of the world more than
God.
