According to the Joyce Meyer Ministries, both Joyce Meyer and her organization, Joyce Meyer Ministries, are nondenominational Christian. In an interview with "The 700 Club," Joyce Meyer identified with Pentecostalism, a movement within Christianity that emphasizes a literal interpretation of the Bible and direct experience with God. However, she also emphasized a broader perspective. The ordained minister, speaker and writer explained, "If you're desperate enough for a move of God in your life, you won't care if you get a Pentecostal blessing, a Baptist blessing, a Methodist blessing."
