Short bio

Johnny Enlow is an American Charismatic pastor, author, and the co-founder (with his wife Elizabeth Enlow) of Restore Seven — a ministry equipping leaders, reformers, and culture-shapers across the seven cultural spheres ("mountains"). The Enlows previously pastored Daystar International Christian Fellowship in Atlanta, Georgia for nearly 15 years before relocating to Franklin, Tennessee. Enlow is one of the principal contemporary popular articulators of the Seven Mountain Mandate — alongside Lance Wallnau (Tier 2) — within the broader apostolic-prophetic-NAR stream. His book catalog includes *The Seven Mountain Prophecy: Unveiling the Coming Elijah Revolution* (2008) and *The Seven Mountain Mantle: Receiving the Joseph Anointing to Reform Nations* (2010), with subsequent titles continuing the framework's articulation.

What they believed

  • Cessation — Strong continuationist; apostolic-prophetic-fivefold operative. Enlow operates within NAR-aligned framework.
  • Victorious Eschatology vs Decline Narrative — Operationally aligned with victorious-eschatology — cultural-influence-and-revival-before-return rather than decline-and-retreat. The "Elijah Revolution" / "spiritual tsunami" framework presses kingdom-advance expectation.
  • Seven Mountain Mandate — The seven cultural-influence spheres (Media, Government, Education, Economy, Family, Religion, Arts) are the operational arenas of kingdom-advance. The church engages each sphere through the Joseph-anointing — believers entering pagan systems to influence them for Christ. End-times kingdom-advance includes Christian cultural-influence before Christ's return.
  • Role of Government — Substantive Christian engagement with government is biblically warranted; the framework's "Government mountain" articulates this. The framework can be read as adjacent to Christian-nationalist territory by critics; defenders distinguish kingdom-influence-mandate from theocratic-imposition.
  • Cultural Engagement Posture — Substantive engagement with cultural-political life is integral to kingdom-mandate. Retreat into private piety is inadequate to the New Testament vision; cultural-Christianization before Christ's return is part of God's end-times strategy.
