Abstract
This Dissertation in Practice examines how prophetic digital ministry converts political events into sustained follower participation. Section One presents the approved proposal for a quantitative content analysis of Give Him 15, a daily devotional platform authored by Dutch Sheets, a leading figure in the New Apostolic Reformation. Section Two presents the submission-ready manuscript, which analyzed approximately 2,992 daily posts published between January 2016 and June 2025 using a six-category framing dictionary, sentiment analysis, and regression models across ten political event windows. Spiritual warfare language operated as a permanent interpretive frame, constant regardless of political context. Affective register tracked the political calendar, devotional after perceived victories and conflict-oriented after perceived losses, while emotional tone remained stable. Mobilization, national identity, persecution, and political actor framing rose during salient windows, and persecution and mobilization framing predicted higher YouTube engagement. Section Three translates the findings into recommendations for three audiences. Denominational and judicatory leaders receive an anticipatory pastoral response protocol keyed to the political calendar. Religion journalists receive coverage standards that name mobilization framing without amplifying it. Civic educators receive evidence-based grounds for pairing relational engagement with frame literacy. The plan closes with reflections of the practitioner-scholar and a leadership philosophy statement.
