I'm curious about what takes place at the conferences, and also about the theology behind Lou Engle, TheCall, the International House of Prayer (IHOP), etc. Although I was raised Oneness Pentecostal (UPC), I have very little knowledge of or experience with charismatic or "Third Wave" Pentecostalism.
Some people connect IHOP with the Latter Rain movement of the '50s, but IHOP has officially denied any previous ties with the LRM. Some of the IHOP doctrines I'm curious about are: (1) the manifest sons of God theology, (2) Joel's army, (3) the Tabernacle of David, etc. See this link.
Please enlighten me! I want to know more!

If you were raised UPC, you may be put off by IHOP's worship style. They do believe in the 'Bridal Paradigm,' (

However, Lou Engle is a man of prayer and there are many anointed worship leaders that come out of that ministry. If I were anywhere near 'The Call,' I'd definitely be interested in attending.
If you want to find out more about IHOP, just tune in here:

It's a 24/7 live stream from the Prayer Room. Pretty neat.
