Setting the captives free through the ministry of healing and evangelism in the name of Jesus Christ

As an apostolic ministry, we bring the good news of the gospel with the Word of God and the supernatural presence of the Holy Spirit. Agape Freedom Fighters equips individuals, churches, regional prayer teams, and organizations with practical, theologically-grounded training in the ministry of physical healing, inner healing, deliverance, and prophecy.

We are an international, non-denominational, Christian organization specializing in teaching, equipping, and training leaders and laypeople to fulfill the vision of Jesus in Luke 9:11 and Matthew 10:7-8. Jesus embraced the people, instructed them about the Kingdom of God, healed those in need, and commissioned them to do the same. We desire to do what Jesus did!

About Joanne Moody

Joanne (Jo) Moody was miraculously healed after 14 years of chronic nerve pain. Since then, she has raised up a Kingdom community of over 100 trained ministers that are equipped to move in the power of the Holy Spirit and agape love. She now travels globally with them to equip both ministers and laymen for the work of the Kingdom.

"When we become a Kingdom, a community unified in the mission and vision of Jesus that all will be saved, delivered, and freed, there will be many more of us doing the work of the Holy Spirit en masse"

What we believe about ministry

Four works, done the way Jesus did them.

  • 01

    Physical healing

    Pray for the sick and watch what God does. Sometimes bodies mend and pain leaves. It is never on our command, and never guaranteed — the outcome belongs to Him. Our part is to show up and pray.

  • 02

    Inner healing

    The wounds no one can see. God meets memory, grief, and shame, and He is patient with all of it.

  • 03

    Deliverance

    Freedom from what holds a person down — done gently, privately, and with dignity. Never spectacle.

  • 04

    Prophecy

    Learning to recognize God's voice and say what you hear, so a stranger walks away knowing they were seen.

We believe God heals. We also honor doctors, nurses, and medicine, and the people who give their lives to them. Prayer is never a reason to stop your treatment.
