We're excited to have Joel Ratcliffe speaking with us on Sunday September 15. Having grown up as a Missionary Kid in West Africa, Joel first encountered the manifest presence of God during a Holy Spirit outpouring in Adelaide, 2010. From a place of deep personal brokenness, this revival awoke his heart, brought dramatic healing and launched him into a life of pursing God’s heart.

Joel served as a young adult pastor in his church in Adelaide for a year, then undertook a missions internship with the International House of Prayer, Kansas City USA. In 2013, he moved to Sydney to help birth the Sydney House of Prayer.

In 2018 he published his first book, The Song Jesus Sings – about the journey of intimacy with God. Joel has a passion for prayer unto encountering God’s heart and finding healing and transformation. He longs to see others drawn into deep relationship with God and each other.
