From Sand Rats to the Supernatural
by Kenneth Copeland
In the early 1970s Kenneth Begishe dug a hole in the Arizona desert and stuck a sign in the ground announcing White Post Church. At the time, there wasn’t a building in sight…or much of anything else either, except sand rats.
On the Navajo Indian Reservation people were scattered so far and wide that for the most part the land looked uninhabited.
But that didn’t bother Kenneth Begishe. He was a faith man.
He’d gotten hold of some of our tapes and heard The WORD of God. He believed it, and as far as he was concerned it was all he needed. So, after staking out his spot in the middle of nowhere and saying, “This is White Post Church!” Brother Begishe started traveling from one Navajo hogan to another telling people about Jesus and getting them born again.
In 1973, he invited Jerry Savelle and me to come and help him conduct the first word of faith convention ever held on an Indian reservation. By then, White Post Church was a lot more than a sign. It was a growing church of 250 people.
