Under The Halo is an examination of whether William Branham, a twentieth-century faith-healer and evangelist, was a prophet of God as believed by an estimated 1 to 1.5 million followers who call his teachings the “Message.“ Written by a former Message member who shares his journey into and out of this cult, it’s a well-researched review of the prophecies, visions, stories, and doctrines of William Branham—things that can’t be questioned by those in the Message.

Though most people today have never heard of William Branham, he had a significant influence on Pentecostalism and the Christian Charismatic movement. After his passing, zealous followers carried his sermons around the world. Today, the bulk of his followers are found in small pockets globally. Under The Halo will be illuminating for both former and present members of the Message, and those interested in the history of the healing revival of the 1940s and 1950s, or how fringe religious groups form and thrive.

Under The Halo is more than an examination of the critical errors in William Branham’s prophecies, credibility, and teaching; it also provides practical advice to anyone seeking to help members leave the Message.
