About Stratias Ministries
Stratias Ministries exists to equip believers and churches to grow in faith and serve the Kingdom of Christ. Founded by Dr. Luke Bray, the ministry focuses on spiritual warfare awareness, providing biblical counseling, discipleship training, and practical tools for navigating daily spiritual battles.
The name Stratias comes from the Greek word stratia—meaning “army” or “heavenly host”—symbolizing a call to action. Just as the heavenly host serves God’s purposes, Stratias empowers believers to engage in spiritual warfare, strengthen their faith, and advance Christ’s Kingdom.
After nearly two decades in ministry and personal encounters with spiritual oppression, Dr. Bray recognized a gap in churches’ understanding of spiritual conflict. Seminaries often neglect spiritual warfare, leaving leaders ill-equipped to help those facing these struggles. Stratias Ministries bridges this gap by offering resources for overcoming spiritual challenges through Christ-centered guidance.
Stratias provides church workshops on spiritual warfare, a YouTube channel with teachings on discipleship, demonology, and spiritual warfare, and individual counseling for those experiencing spiritual attack. Dr. Bray also authored Beyond the Vale, a devotional tool for those walking in freedom after spiritual oppression.
Dr. Bray’s background, which includes service in the U.S. Army (including deployment to Iraq), nearly a decade as a senior pastor, and his work as VP of Strategic Partnerships with Passages Israel, informs his leadership and understanding of spiritual conflict. With a PhD in World Religions focused on Angelology and Demonology, he brings a unique depth of knowledge to Stratias Ministries.
