Winston Davenport is a prophetic worship leader and Christian teacher with a rich heritage in the faith. He began leading worship when he was four years old to a congregation of stuffed animals in the basement. God called him to ministry when he was fifteen years old, and Winston has been songwriting and leading worship at churches and conferences ever since. Winston partnered with Youth With A Mission (YWAM), International House of Prayer (IHOP), and Teen Challenge and has ministered all around the world, as far as Thailand, Malaysia, and Japan. He has a degree from Coastline College, as well as schooling from University Of The Nations and Bethel Church.
Several years ago, God told Winston that He would call him to "set Christians free" through a preaching gift. This call came during a period of addiction and depression in Winston's life, when he found himself in terrible circumstances. He loved Jesus, but something was missing. He realized that before he could hope to "set Christians free," he himself needed to realize this promised freedom. God called Winston to an 18-month media fast: no music, no books, no television or movies. Just prayer and meditation.
God began to open Winston's eyes to deeper truths than he ever imagined were possible. Little by little, the Father tore down wrong beliefs that Winston had been taught growing up in church, replacing them with raw relationship and revelation that could never come from hearing a sermon in church. Winston began to see newfound freedom in his life---freedom from addiction, from difficult circumstances, and from depression.
Several years later, Winston has never gone back to these old ways of thinking, these substandard ways of living. He is a passionate powerhouse of God's grace, setting people free and spreading the message of the Father's unconditional love and empowerment through anointed prophetic worship music and an infectious preaching gift. His music, sermons, and videos have spanned the globe, and his message of freedom is spreading like a wildfire.
