Eric D. Cooper
Eric D. Cooper is an author, mentor, prophetic voice, and spiritual father whose writing calls believers to live from the reality of God’s Kingdom rather than the pressures and limitations of the world around them.
With more than four decades of ministry and Christian leadership experience, Eric writes from a life shaped not only by Scripture and revelation, but by real seasons of calling, disappointment, wilderness, restoration, and renewed purpose. His message consistently returns to a central conviction: God is faithful to complete what He begins, and what looks like a pit, a delay, or a wilderness season is rarely the end of the story He is telling.
Eric describes this way of life as living Above the Sun, a biblical perspective rooted in communion with God, renewed thinking, spiritual identity, and learning to see life from heaven’s perspective. Rather than being controlled by circumstances, culture, fear, or the noise of the soul, believers can learn to live from the Spirit, anchored in truth and conscious of the Presence of God.
That message runs through his books, including The Joseph Anointing: Living Above the Sun, Set Your Mind on Things Above the Sun, Above the Sun: A Prophetic Journey into God’s Presence, I Am Mad at Hell, I’m Not Taking It Anymore!, The Journey of Restoration: Rediscovering Hope in the Midst of Chaos, and Restoration Journey.
His newest book, When God Speaks at Night: A Biblical Guide to Dreams, Discernment & Divine Revelation, brings that same Scripture-centered approach to the subject of dreams. Drawing from the full counsel of Scripture and decades of walking with people in prophetic ministry, Eric helps readers learn how to record, discern, test, interpret, and respond to dreams without hype, fear, or speculation.
At the heart of Eric’s writing is a lifelong conviction that human beings were created first for communion with God. He teaches that we are spirit beings who have a soul and live in a body, and that spiritual maturity comes as the soul and body increasingly come into alignment with the Spirit of God and the truth of His Word.
His recurring message is simple but weighty: the sun level is not your ceiling. It is your floor.
You were never created to live crushed beneath the weight of what is happening around you. You were created to live from above it.
Eric lives in Canada and continues to write, mentor, teach, and equip believers through Above the Sun, a growing body of books, teaching, and resources designed to help people encounter God, recognize His voice, understand His ways, discover their identity and calling, and mature in their walk with Him.
