What Is Shekinah Wells?

Shekinah Wells Global Ministries Inc. is a USA-registered, globally focused ministry founded by Pastor Verie Johnson. The name "Shekinah Wells" carries deep prophetic meaning: Shekinah — the manifest, tangible presence of God; Wells — a source of living water that never runs dry, that goes deep, and that refreshes all who come to it.

This is not a ministry built on programs and performances. It is a ministry built on the presence of God — the kind of presence that heals trauma, breaks addiction, restores identity, and transforms communities. Verie does not believe in church as usual. She believes in church as it was always meant to be: a community of transformed people transforming the world around them.

Shekinah Wells operates in the USA through pastoral ministry, teaching, speaking, and consulting — and is actively building toward its flagship project: the Shekinah Wells Healing and Empowerment Campus in Namibia, a physical center that will embody the ministry's vision in the most tangible way possible.

Our Values

  • Authenticity — Real faith, not religious performance
  • Holistic Care — Spirit, soul, and body
  • Excellence — God deserves our best
  • Compassion — Meeting people where they are
  • Transformation — Not just better lives, but new lives

The Five Pillars of Shekinah Wells

Bible Teaching & Discipleship

Deep, authentic, life-transforming Bible teaching that breaks religious tradition and builds genuine faith. Verie teaches with clarity, depth, and the fire of someone who has personally encountered the God she preaches about.

Trauma Healing for Women

Safe, compassionate spaces for abused, broken, and overlooked women to find healing, identity, and a new beginning. Shekinah Wells believes that every woman is worth fighting for.

Youth & Addiction Recovery

Holistic, faith-based programs for young people battling addiction, identity crisis, and hopelessness — restoring purpose, dignity, and a future that God always intended for them.

Skills Development & Economic Empowerment

Practical training in vocational skills, entrepreneurship, and financial literacy. Shekinah Wells believes that economic empowerment is an essential part of holistic transformation.

Community Outreach & Evangelism

Taking the ministry beyond the walls — into schools, streets, prisons, and communities — with the message that God loves them, sees them, and has not forgotten them.

What Verie Teaches

Verie's teaching ministry is marked by depth, clarity, and the kind of anointing that comes only from a life spent in the presence of God. She does not preach religion — she preaches relationship. She does not offer formulas — she offers encounter.

Authentic Christianity

Breaking free from religious tradition and performance to encounter the real, living God who transforms from the inside out.

Prayer & Revival

Teaching on the power and practice of prayer — from personal devotion to corporate intercession to revival-level breakthrough.

Women in Ministry

Empowering women to step into their God-given calling with confidence, clarity, and the full backing of Scripture.

The Cross & Transformation

The centrality of the cross — repentance, surrender, dying to self, and the resurrection life that follows.

Identity & Self-Worth

Helping people discover who they truly are in Christ — especially those who have been told they are worthless, forgotten, or too broken to be used by God.

Evangelism & Missions

Stirring the church to go — to the streets, to the nations, to the forgotten — with the gospel that is still the power of God unto salvation.
