Trivia

On May 5, 2019, in his morning Free Chapel message, he called members of several Christian denominations “little.”

Free Chapel hosts an annual Forward Conference, an event that featured performances by Jeremy Camp (a Christian singer-songwriter with 4 Gold-certified albums) and other renowned Christian musicians.

In a 2019 Instagram post, Jentezen called for believers to pray for all aspects of government, specifically the Supreme Court, Congress, and President Donal Trump.

Franklin thinks that the government will only be able to thrive in all aspects (spiritually and financially) at its best if there is unity.

Franklin wrote in the Instagram post:

“Amazing meeting today in the West Wing of the White House. We all need to pray that we can find middle ground on some of our nation’s greatest issues.”

Jentezen continued:

”Let’s cover our President, Congress and Supreme Court in prayer and set the example of love & unity, even when we disagree. Prayer still works!”
