Barbara Kankowske is an intense, passionate follower of Jesus Christ. She is equally passionate about equipping believers, desiring to see them mature in their callings. Her strong gifting in the
prophetic and discerning of spirits has enabled her to speak into individual lives. She has helped many to find God's direction for their lives and has walked alongside them, providing intercession,
instruction, and counsel. Barbara has served many years in the Chicago area as a Bible teacher, exhorter and, along with husband Dennis, led marriage ministry. In the nineties, God began to send her
out to other states. Teachings on the experiential: the presence of God, spiritual reality, the spirit realm, and warfare have been and continue to be a strong emphasis. In 2000, she and Dennis
founded Midway Ministries. It has served as a training and resource center, focusing on mentoring and releasing believers in the prophetic. A prophetic proclamation on July 4, 2008, declared that
Barbara would function “like an apostle to build a prototype that will advance the armies of God,” thrusting new events into motion and producing a period of escalated growth and expansion. "The
School of the Holy Spirit unto the Maturing of Sons," subsequent satellite schools, and other related ministries were formed. The school is providing a foundation for personal growth and is a
"launching-off" place to develop gifts that function as they were designed to within the Body of Christ.
