New Journey Ministries

The New Journey Ministries (formerly Global Alliance of Affirming Apostolic Pentecostals (GAAAP)) is an affirming, Oneness Pentecostal denomination, previously headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana and later Thonotosassa, Florida. It is a nonprofit organization based in Quincy, Florida.

GAAAP is one of six LGBT affirming Pentecostal networks, and was organized in 2007 by Rev. Kevin Konkle then of Indianapolis, Indiana and Rev. Robert Morgan of Tampa, Florida. Rev. Morgan served as founding chairman and Rev. Konkle as founding vice-chairman.

History
GAAAP originally began as a ministerial fellowship, growing from only 2 founding ministers in the beginning of 2007 to 17 ministers by early 2008. In 2010 the organization amended its constitution to become a denomination of twenty congregations.

In November 2010, a number of its ministers left the organization due to philosophical differences on cultural and social issues irreconcilable with the leadership. Ultimately, GAAAP was turned over to Rev. Joseph Parramore who presides over the New Journey Fellowship located in Florida.

Theological views
The church is non-trinitarian in theology, holding to the belief that all the fullness of God resides bodily in Jesus, and teaches that repentance, water baptism by immersion in the name of Jesus Christ, and the Baptism of the Holy Ghost are essential elements of the Apostolic era church that must be retained in the church of God today. They also believe that speaking in tongues is the initial physical evidence of the baptism of the Holy Ghost. GAAAP also considers itself a middle way between mainstream Christianity.
