# Chuck Pierce Chuck Pierce is the **institutional heir of [[C. Peter Wagner]]** — the prophet and apostle who inherited Wagner's apostolic networks and now runs Global Spheres, Inc. from Corinth, Texas. Alongside [[Cindy Jacobs]] and [[Dutch Sheets]], Pierce is one of the three senior-most active prophets in the American [[New Apostolic Reformation]]. Pierce's public persona is that of an intense Hebrew-roots-inflected prophet — emphasizing Jewish feast-day calendars, shofar practice, and prophetic engagement with Israel. His annual "Head of the Year" prophecies (timed to Rosh Hashanah) are widely followed across the movement and function as a kind of prophetic weather report for the coming year. ## Background - Born 1953 - Early ministry in Texas charismatic circles - Became closely associated with [[C. Peter Wagner]] in the 1990s - Served as president of Global Harvest Ministries under Wagner - Now leads Global Spheres, Inc. (based in Corinth, Texas), which absorbed Wagner's networks after his 2016 death - Also leads Glory of Zion International Ministries and the WorldWide Network of Prayer ## The Wagner Succession When Wagner died in 2016, Pierce was widely recognized as his institutional successor. The transition consolidated several functions in Global Spheres, Inc.: - The remnants of Wagner's International Coalition of [[Apostles]] and Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders - Wagner's publishing and conference infrastructure - Networks of aligned apostolic leaders globally - The annual Starting the Year Off Right (SYOR) conference at Rosh Hashanah, which has become one of the most important prophetic-calendar events in the movement This succession is part of why the NAR as a named movement has institutional continuity despite lacking denominational structure: Pierce inherited the network. ## Hebrew Roots and Israel Prophecy Pierce's distinctive theological emphasis is on **Hebrew cultural roots** — observance of Jewish feast cycles, shofar liturgy, Hebrew-calendar prophecy, and aggressive [[Christian Zionism]]. This framework produces: - A prophetic calendar that tracks American political events against Jewish feast days - Strong identification with the modern state of Israel as a prophetic fulfillment - Particular focus on Jerusalem, the Temple Mount, and Israeli electoral politics - Integration with other Christian Zionist and Messianic Jewish networks Pierce's Israel focus has given him political access that most NAR figures lack — relationships with Israeli officials, Knesset members, and Christian Zionist political infrastructure. ## Trump-Era Political Activation Pierce has been consistently aligned with the Trump-prophetic tradition: - Issued multiple prophecies framing Trump's 2016 election as divinely orchestrated - Continued prophetic endorsement through Trump's first term - Post-2020, joined the consensus of NAR prophets declaring the election stolen - Featured on [[Kenneth Copeland]]'s *FlashPoint* program and Trump-era prophecy broadcasts ## Why He Matters for the KB Pierce is the **institutional anchor** of the post-Wagner NAR. Most NAR apostles operate their own franchises; Pierce operates the one that still carries Wagner's direct lineage. That makes Global Spheres the closest thing the movement has to a theological and organizational home office. His Rosh Hashanah prophecies are also one of the clearest windows into how the movement *organizes time and expectation* — setting the prophetic agenda for a year of political and spiritual engagement that millions of aligned believers will then track against actual events. ## See Also - [[Global Spheres Inc]] - [[C.
