History

2012–2015

The Beginning and Early Growth

Bride Ministries International was founded by Daniel Duval in 2012. The ministry began as a podcast outreach, paired with weekly newsletters. At this time Daniel had already published his first book and was working on the second. In 2013, Daniel went on his first International Ministry Trip, and continued with the podcast and weekly emails as the ministry following grew. In 2014, Daniel spent most of the year working for another ministry, and as such, all operations at Bride Ministries ceased. Then, at the outset of 2015, Bride Ministries was relaunched now featuring a podcast, online discipleship courses, and an intentional effort to serve survivors of ritual abuse and extreme trauma backgrounds with the healing power of Jesus Christ.

2015–2016

Expansion and Community Building

From 2015 to 2016 the ministry outreach grew significantly. There were several ministers that linked arms with Bride Ministries as coaches in order to serve the number of survivors that were turning to us for help. The podcast, which began to focus more and more on government sponsored mind control, the reality of satanic ritual abuse, and related content, drove much of this demand. Many ministry tools were developed to deal with difficult deliverance needs, which ultimately became the first Prayers that Shake Heaven and Earth Book.

Due to the growth of online Bible Study groups and the increasing demand for community, the first e-church outreach was launched under the name “The Fireplace Church”, in 2016. These videos can still be found in the Bride Ministries archives on YouTube. This version of the e-church was filmed with a greenscreen, professionally produced, and then streamed, being followed by live breakout groups led by trained moderators. While this first attempt at e-church ultimately failed, it gave way to the Bride Ministries Church. The e-church went from a production to a live webinar meeting, before finally becoming a physical church that was established in Katy, TX in 2021.

2018–2021

Training, Innovation, and Global Reach

In efforts to solve the incredibly complex problems that were being presented in ministry sessions, Daniel continued to innovate in the areas of prayer resources and ministerial approaches. In 2018, recording began on the Bride Ministries Institute, ultimately yielding 10 courses and over 90 hours of learning. In 2019 work began on the DID Coach Mentorship Training Program, which was a year-long discipleship with Daniel Duval designed to train people to be coaches and serve the needs of survivors of SRA and extreme trauma backgrounds through prayer ministry.

In 2020, Bride Ministries launched this program, and the first class successfully completed a year of training, demonstrating the ability to provide strategic assistance to survivors at the conclusion of their training, making it a success. At the conclusion of the program, they were released as trained and selected coaches. It was at this point that Bride Ministries switched gears and focused on promoting our own trained ministers exclusively. The DID Coach Training program continued to run annually, and by recognizing ways to improve our training strategy, this program was expanded from one year to three years and now exists as The School of Inner Healing and Deliverance.

In 2021, Bride Ministries also launched the world’s first of its kind Deliverance Portal, which allows people to take a self-guided journey through deliverance resources created by Daniel Duval which is absolutely free. We have also made a vast majority of the deliverance resources available for free on both the ministry website as well as the ministry app. Bride Ministries has become known around the world for the effectiveness of our prayer resources.

2022–Present

Establishing Foundations and Continued Growth

To provide increasing needs for customer service, support for our coach community, accountability, oversight, and the long-term sustainability of the work, Bride Ministries launched a church-owned company at the outset of 2024 called Bride Ministries Coaching. With this change, the church took an additional step to ministerially license the coaches that transitioned into this company. We established a Pastor for the coaches. We upgraded our infrastructure, and added a position to provide client services, and help new clients connect with the appropriate coach for their needs.

In 2022, Bride Ministries acquired a 10-acre tract of land in Katy, TX which currently serves as the ministry campus and the location of the Bride Ministries Church. The local church outreach continues to grow, along with our internet community. Bride Ministries calls itself Bride Tribe because of the uniqueness of our community and the niche that we serve. Many who come to Bride Ministries find their Tribe here, and an extraordinary sense of excitement and belonging! We continue to serve the body of Christ as a pioneering ministry, and rejoice in the countless testimonies that continue to pour in from all that the Lord has done through us!
