He was a dancer. A choreographer. A talent scout for Hollywood productions. He represented Greece in the Olympics through dance. He owned dance studios across the world. The last thing Socrates Charos ever expected was to become a minister.
In Episode 61 of Good News with Socrates, Bishop Socrates Charos opens up like never before and shares his full testimony, how God called him from a life of show business into a life of ministry, healing, and the supernatural.
This is the story his community has been asking for.
Hear how his mother prophesied over him at age 13 that he would be in ministry. How he spent decades running from that calling. How God called his name out loud, three times, while he was alone on his patio. How the Lord took him to heaven twice, once for 90 minutes and once for 22 minutes. How he had ten face-to-face encounters with Jesus Christ. And how God touched his tongue and sent him to preach to the nations.
