Fathers Produce Strength of Will Hebrews 12 presupposes three fathering leaders: Father in Heaven, natural fathers, and spiritual fathers. The chapter addresses natural and spiritual fathers and those for whom they provide fathering leadership. It compares Father’s approach to maturing inheritors with physical and spiritual fathers. It sets Father’s discipline as the context for natural and […]

A Hero Generation: Fathers and Millennials

The next Appeal to Heaven Conference is in Chattanooga, TN October 11-13, 2018. (For more information go to www.dutchsheets.org.)

False Honor and Kingdom Culture
I have been preaching and teaching Biblical honor for two decades. I have written about it. I have taught it in FreedomMinistry International to hundreds of thousands of people. That’s a context for this post. By combining three different stories, let me share how satan empties a Bible idea of its meaning. First, with distraction […]
Primary Passion: Brasil on the Brink
Brasil, let us now measure our passion for purpose. Has success in kingdom expansion distracted you from the priorities of God? Have you become focused upon your part of the purpose of God? Have you have failed to expand your passion for purpose? When Jesus confronts Ephesus Ecclesia in the Revelation, He says, “You have left […]
An Army of David’s
In the dream, I am with David as he arrives at the camp of Israel. The giant is roaring blasphemy. I am party to David’s feeling and passion. I am burning with the heart of God that dominates David’s passion! Our first encounter with David’s brothers would need a book to communicate. In one download […]

The second seat was empty but they were arriving to pick up some people for a ride. Since bicycles represent individual ministry, I knew the angels were on personal missions. I was surprised […]
The Revival Cruise and Theme Park Fantasy
If you attend “revival” and it is not a move of God in real life, it is not going to change a generation. If it sustainable only as an attraction, it will sell its soul to be a conference center instead of a Kingdom Center. It will contain several popular rides. It will provide some […]
Birthing Purpose
Purpose When we speak of purpose, we begin with the Father. He originates all purposes. All that exists, including Jesus as His Son and Holy Spirit in us, begin with Father. He sent Jesus. He sent Holy Spirit. So, in this sense, even God Himself operates in protocols of purpose. Jesus accepted responsibility to Create […]
Ecclesia: Re-assemble the Ancient Stones
I was in a vision, walking of ancient stones. I saw the Cornerstone the builders rejected. Quarry cutters shaped the stones blueprints. But, the assembly occurred without blueprints. The most vital part of the construction appears a mistake. The builders rejected the chief cornerstone or capstone because they lacked blueprints. I walked among the ancient […]
Kingdom Leadership – 1 Corinthians
Some of you say, “I am a follower of Paul.” Others say, “I follow Apollos,” or “I follow Peter,” or “I follow only Christ.” These verses support for three or four scenarios of leadership perspectives. I follow no one but Christ. I follow no one at all. I follow whomever I choose. The leader who […]
