Michael Thompson 

Michael and Dianne served as worship leaders and senior pastors for 21 years. They were catalytic leaders in a nearly 3-year renewal movement in Brevard County, Florida, sparked by a visit from Randy Clark in January 1995. Tens of thousands came from around the world to experience the healing presence of God. From that outpouring, Michael preached in renewal centers internationally – including Bethel’s inaugural conference in 1997. His ministry was derailed by Michael’s painful moral failure that altered the trajectory of their life and family. In extravagant grace, God proved he was not finished with them. He has restored Michael and Dianne so their rescued marriage and rebuilt family are a living message of hope and healing for the Body of Christ. They now minister together from an unquenchable passion: to see others experience the healing and wholeness Jesus provided through the work of the cross. He is the author of six books, including Wonder: The Breathless Adventure of Chasing the Heart of God, birthed from his message at Bethel in January 2022. Their 44 year marriage has produced three children and ten grands who are the joy of their lives.
