William Branham Historical Research
Frequency: 1 episode/2d. Total Eps: 529
The William Branham Historical Research Podcast investigates the life, teachings, and legacy of healing evangelist William Branham—one of the most influential and controversial figures of the 20th-century Pentecostal and Charismatic movements.
Hosted by researcher John Collins, the series documents Branham’s public record with verifiable sources: sermons, newspapers, archival materials, and eyewitness accounts. Each episode examines how his message evolved—from early Pentecostal roots to apocalyptic mysticism—and how his ideas shaped movements such as the Latter Rain, Deliverance revival, and today’s New Apostolic Reformation.
This is not an exposé or a sermon. It’s a historical investigation: one that follows the evidence wherever it leads. Whether you’re a former Message believer, a student of revival history, or simply curious about how spiritual movements grow and fracture, this podcast offers a clear, factual lens into a story that continues to shape modern faith and culture.

New Beginnings
Season 2 · Episode 1
lundi 18 juillet 2022 • Duration 01:04:41
In the Season 2 reboot of the William Branham Historical Research Podcast, John introduces the new co-host, discusses the reason for the reboot, and describes the critical research that our new partner brings to the table. Both discuss the significance of the combined research and give listeners a taste of the amazing things planned in the show.
The new co-host describes his background as a leader of a splinter cell of William Branham's cult of personality, and John describes the importance of that sect. The information that our new co-host brings to the table is ... unbelievable. William Branham often spoke of those "hidden mysteries", and his cult of personality only thought that he was referring to religion. There were truly hidden mysteries in the "Message" cult and some very deep, dark, disturbing secrets. Season two resets the timeline, and we start at the very beginning. We are going to walk listeners through each and every historical fact that has been uncovered and expose many of the hidden secrets that Branham cult leaders have been concealing for decades. Join us! Those "hidden mysteries" will now be made known.
