In the years following 2001, through much prayer and meditation, the the Lord began downloading the first concepts of an entirely different entity, a fully functioning body of believers as described in scripture. Where the living Word of God is taught without compromise and the Holy Spirit has complete and unhindered freedom in the service.

At that time, the Lord thrust Robert and Judy into a spiritual “fast lane”, having a whole array of religious experiences. Some good, some not so good, and some just plain awful. Many of the more awful ones were their own doing, while others were clearly ordained by the Lord, Jesus. He gave them opportunities to see first-hand the effortless power ministers have when they flow with the anointing and the Word, and the tribulations that come when they do not.

After seeing and experiencing the inner workings of several “not-so-functional” churches, Judy and Robert were reluctant to even consider starting one, and even more reluctant to attach the dreaded label “church” to their fresh and living concept of Firehouse!. Yet that is what Firehouse! is. A church.
