As founder and CEO of Five Crowns Ministries, Dennis Funderburg has traveled the world and seen God do miracles, signs and wonders.
“And people always correlate to [thinking] I must be a very special holy person, or I must be a guy who has it all together. And that is not it at all,” Funderburg says on the Jesus Is Still Jesus podcast on the Charisma Podcast Network. “I’m a broken guy just like everybody else. And I have my struggles; I have my things that I go through.”
Funderburg wants people to know the one reason God has used him: submission. “It is simply being submitted to Christ, meaning I have set myself aside for Him and Him alone,” he says. “There are days I don’t get it right, there are days that I mess it up. But in majority, I keep bringing my heart back to Him. It’s not necessarily about arriving, like a lot of people think, God will use me when I arrive. Well, that’s a religious mindset. It’s like, God will use me when I do better. Well, that’s work- based.
“… God will use you when you desire to be there,” Funderburg explains. “When you have a desire to want to be there with the Lord … ‘I want to mature; I want to get better. I want to overcome these things. I want to know you more.’ Then God’s like, ‘I will totally work with that. That is how that kingdom works.”
