The Vision TV Show
In this powerful episode of The Vision, hosts Destiny Yarbrough, Dr. Alveda King, Day Gardner, and Pastor Jearlyn Dennie welcome Joshua and Kristy Gardner for a deeply personal and spiritually intense discussion on revival, deliverance, and walking in the fullness of God’s calling. From the outset, Joshua boldly declares that revival is not something coming in the future, but something already present for those who are hungry for God. He emphasizes that believers themselves carry revival, challenging viewers to shift their mindset from waiting for a move of God to becoming active participants in it. The conversation quickly moves into Joshua’s dramatic testimony, sharing how early childhood encounters with God were followed by deep trauma, loss, homelessness, and drug use, before a radical encounter with Jesus transformed his life. His story highlights the reality that calling often comes through brokenness, and that God can redeem even the darkest circumstances for His glory. Kristy Gardner adds to the narrative by sharing her own journey of faith, including how she came to know Christ and later encountered the power of the Holy Spirit. Their relationship itself is rooted in ministry, having been brought together through shared efforts in witnessing and prayer. The hosts explore the importance of divine connections, emphasizing how God strategically aligns people for purpose. Throughout the discussion, a strong emphasis is placed on the fear of the Lord as a foundational element of spiritual authority, with Joshua explaining that true power flows from reverence and alignment with God’s nature, not from personal ambition. The couple also addresses the cost of the calling, openly discussing spiritual warfare, opposition, and the ongoing process of refinement. Joshua shares intense experiences of encountering demonic resistance and explains how God taught him to shift from seeking rescue to ministering back to God, developing spiritual maturity and resilience in the process. The conversation expands into practical teaching on how believers can navigate spiritual warfare and grow in faith. Joshua outlines that the process of spiritual growth requires moving from dependency to maturity, where believers learn to stand firm, trust God’s past faithfulness, and actively engage in their relationship with Him. The hosts connect this to broader themes of discipleship and the need for believers to be grounded in truth rather than emotion. Kristy reinforces this by highlighting the importance of remaining rooted in the Word of God, especially for those who feel discouraged or under attack after initially coming to faith. The discussion also addresses the dangers of engaging in practices outside of God’s will, such as mediums or occult influences, urging viewers to remain anchored in Scripture and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. A significant portion of the episode focuses on the need for true spiritual parenting and discipleship. Joshua explains that while many people experience powerful encounters with God, they often lack the structure and mentorship needed to sustain their growth. He shares a shift in his own calling, moving from a desire for large-scale revival events to building systems that support long-term transformation. The hosts affirm that the next generation is actively searching for authenticity, not performance, and that the Church must be prepared to provide both spiritual depth and relational guidance. Kristy’s role as a spiritual mother is highlighted, emphasizing the importance of nurturing, intercession, and consistency in developing others. As the episode concludes, Joshua introduces his upcoming book, The Davidic Dimension, which explores the life of King David as a model for New Testament believers operating in faith, authority, and intimacy with God. The discussion also touches on the topic of prophetic training and the balance between structured teaching and reliance on the Holy Spirit, with Joshua cautioning against placing a price on what should be freely given by God. The episode ends with a powerful encouragement to viewers: no matter where they are in their walk, they can return to God, ask for renewed strength, and step back into their calling. The hosts reinforce that God’s gifts and calling remain available, and that through humility, obedience, and faith, believers can walk in the fullness of His vision.
