The Man, The Ministry, The Mission: A Tribute To A Chosen Vessel
The Experiencing Amazing Transformation Podcast recently featured Bishop Paul C Wright, a 90-year-old spiritual giant whose wisdom transcends generations. Throughout the episode, Bishop Wright shared profound insights about divine presence, protection, and the power of obedience that can transform how we approach our faith journey.
Bishop Wright opened with a powerful statement that encapsulates his life philosophy: "When you serve, and when you honor and serve God and keep him first, you never lose." This declaration isn't merely motivational rhetoric—it's the distilled wisdom from nine decades of walking with God through life's valleys and mountaintops. As Bishop Wright explains, God is the ultimate source who "feeds" His workers in the vineyard. Some plant, some water, but God always gives the increase. This agricultural metaphor beautifully illustrates how divine partnership works—we contribute our efforts while trusting God for results.
One of the most compelling aspects of Bishop Wright's testimony is his understanding of God's omnipresence. "He's omnipresent," Wright explains, "that means he's present everywhere." This theological concept becomes practical in Wright's explanation: someone in Germany doesn't need to wait for God to "arrive" when they pray because He's already there. Simultaneously, He can respond to needs in Spain without leaving Germany. This attribute of God provides tremendous comfort for believers—knowing that geographic distance never separates us from divine attention and care. Bishop Wright describes this reality with childlike wonder despite his advanced years, demonstrating how spiritual awe should increase rather than diminish with age.
The podcast reveals Bishop Wright's deep spiritual heritage, having been raised by a father who was also in ministry. He recalls singing his first church song at approximately six years old, "Jesus Cares When I'm Oppressed," accompanied by his aunt keeping rhythm with a sawed-off broom handle. This vivid memory reveals how early spiritual formation shaped Wright's lifelong ministry. His childhood foundation in faith created a trajectory that has sustained him through decades of service.
Bishop Wright's understanding of spiritual warfare offers practical wisdom for believers facing opposition. Referencing Ephesians 6, he noted that God provided armor for protection but "didn't make nothing to protect the back." This insight reveals why Paul instructs believers to "stand" after doing everything possible—not retreating or turning away from challenges. Wright explains that standing firm is actually the point of victory, because "when I've done all that I can do, the devil is in trouble" as God takes over. This perspective transforms how we view spiritual struggles, recognizing that perseverance itself is often the pathway to breakthrough.
Throughout the episode, Bishop Wright shares personal testimonies of divine protection. One particularly powerful story involved his daughter being spared from a car break-in when God prompted him to pray specifically for her protection. Out of four sequential cars in a parking lot, hers was the only one not vandalized—the fourth in line, mysteriously passed over. Such experiences have reinforced Wright's commitment to spiritual sensitivity and immediate obedience to divine promptings.
As the podcast concludes, Bishop Wright reveals he will soon turn 90 years old. His longevity in both life and ministry stands as a testament to the sustaining power of faith. His joyful demeanor and sharp spiritual insights challenge the notion that aging diminishes effectiveness. Instead, his decades of experience have distilled wisdom that feels both timeless and urgently relevant to contemporary challenges.

I remember looking in the mirror, and not being able to recognize my own face. I didn’t have any physical make-up on. I was wearing so much emotional make-up, I truly couldn’t tell who the person was that was looking back at me. In life, we get so caught up in: pleasing our flesh, pleasing other people, and becoming the puppet people want us to be. After we’ve done all this changing for them, they move on to the next person. I’m here to tell you that, you don’t have to be a people pleaser, nor do you have to give into pleasing your flesh. Those things won’t and doesn’t define who you really are. God gave me Experiencing Amazing Transformations to tell my story and be transparent in it. “My truth” Often times, our truth does not look or feel good, and looking through someone else’s eyes, they don’t see your story like you do, but it’s your experience not theirs. By coming together, we can overcome and be the best versions of ourselves. I pray that E.A.T. helps you become more open and honest about what you're going through. I also pray that E.A.T allows you to celebrate your victories no matter how big or small because you deserve those moments. I pray E.A.T helps you stay encouraged. This is the time to celebrate yourselves when no one else will. Lastly, I Pray that E.A.T leaves you feeling refreshed, rejuvenated and empowered from the steps of how to get through the good times and the bad times. So, come and listen to E.A.T!
