Honor includes monetary investment. Honor is value. Honor is not exclusively commodified. That is, honor is not for sale, but it is worthy of offering. A kingdom leader is not for sale. He cannot be given proper monetary value. While some kingdom leaders set a price for doing a certain thing, the value of a […]

We have lost kingdom culture, and we do not know we have lost it. Daniel saw visions that revealed history from the captivity of God’s representative culture to the restoration of Messiah’s culture. The images represent actual cultures of history that are continuing to influence the world. The cultures Daniel saw in his visions influence […]

Elijah tells Elisha that he has asked for something big if he wants to be a firstborn inheritor of Elijah’s leadership among the other prophets. He says, “If you are there when God takes me from you, you will receive it.” How many mantles lie about the world fell upon no one because the one […]

When we fail to care for our wounded, either by shooting them in the head or giving them a microphone before they are healed, we breach kingdom culture processes and protocols at the expense of kingdom culture principles. It does not “encourage” a wounded warrior to put him back into the battle. It is deadly […]

I read the statement three times: “Read the New Testament, and you will see that every city had one church with many house churches, with one apostle who planted churches leading.” The authors of this statement – I combined three authors I consider friends and noble apostles – arrived at these conclusions because we hammered […]

I was so appalled by a blog posted and celebrated on FB that I felt compelled to answer the horrifyingly inaccurate and inconsistent statements and conclusions it offers on spiritual fathering. If you apply these ideas, you will not be a father at all. The young man writing about fathering desperately needs a spiritual father […]

Personal and Leadership Restoration Keep in mind that restoring a kingdom leader requires a different process from restoring a believer who has not taught, preached, prophesied as a prophet, or been a functioning elder. If a person holds an eldering leadership position and fivefold ministry function, the process for restoring requires both personal and ministry-function […]

“He gave apostles, prophets, evangels, shepherds and teachers to prepare and position the holy ones to operate in serving within the systems of Christ’s body” (Ephesians 4:11-12). The elders are the kingdom leadership dynamics Jesus bestowed upon the kingdom Ecclesia as He ascended with all authority in Heaven and Earth. He designed and assigned them […]

God designs all kingdom processes. To speak of them in terms of customer service excellence, we start by answering the question, “Who is the customer served?” This is true with the process of reconciliation to which Jesus refers in Matthew 18. The first answer is always “the King.” The primary customer served is the King […]

Spiritual warfare occurs when we positively press for the purposes of God and run into usurpers, enemies of God, and prevailing, spiritual conditions called “this present darkness. Once we have taken the position assigned us, we don God’s armor to stand in the evil day, expand from that secured position, and establish God’s kingdom purposes […]
