The term “christian” can more properly be “adherent to some form of christianism.” The term has little to do with its actual origins or meaning.

Revival and Riot: A Season of Contrast
Dr Don has been prophesying a season of Awakening in America for several years that would be marked by both revival and riot. The Awakening will bring holy riot to the kingdom and chaotic riot to the streets. Both aspects of this season are manifesting. Dr Don today: “A season of contrast has arrived. Strong […]
Choosing Spiritual Children
To some extent Jesus had to deal with the leaders Father gave Him. He didn’t pick the ones He wanted so much as He matured the ones He was given. Recognized the ones Father had aligned with His assignment. One of them was a devil. None of them would be a “first choice” in the […]
Jacob’s Identity Crisis at Jabbok
Jacob arrives at Jabbok to face the source of his fear and guilt. Jacob has a prophetic promise to be the inheritor of Abraham’s covenant with God. He has the right to the covenant with God, but he will be prepared as an inheritor at Jabbok. Jabbok means “emptying out.” It is a brook that […]
Word for Memphis Region
“Surely, I have set up a roadblock, a mercy barrier, in this region. Too many were walking into destruction and death, so I set up a roadblock to curb their rush to disaster.

Feeding passion does not produce rebellion or pride. Feeding passion without confronting rebellion and pride will result in train wreck, but passion isn’t the problem nor does passion produce the problem. Passion will help […]
Write It Down!
If you want to lead, write. If you want to hear God’s voice, write. If you want to dream God dreams, write. If you want to mature, write. If you want to know more of what God is saying to you, write. If you want to expand on what Holy Spirit is teaching you, write. […]
Apostolic and Prophetic Maturity
Apostles and prophets are foundational leaders. They function in foundational ways. They are continuously involved in the process just as Jesus the Chief Cornerstone remains the One who sets length, breadth, and height. The marker or plumb line is always set to Jesus, but the expansion of His building strategy comes through foundational, blueprint leaders. […]
Kingdom Culture
Culture is group behavior. Simply put, perhaps an oversimplification for the basis of our discussion, behavior in the individual is culture in the group. Shared values and beliefs shape shared behaviors. What we believe has consequences. What we value orders our lives. In a culture, values and beliefs shared by the group influence and motivate […]
