“Joined himself to a stranger” may be the most descriptive word of a fatherless generation. God as a Father never leaves us without fathers. If a situation does arise in which fathers are unavailable, He is a Father to the fatherless. In turn, Father recognizes that natural and spiritual fathering is necessary, even more advantageous, […]

Rebuilding Kingdom Culture
Having lost kingdom culture and remaining unaware that we have lost it, many of the principles, procedures, and protocols, unavailable to kingdom citizens and absent kingdom relationships, provide no context for how leaders lead and followers follow. Thus, we lack apostolic order. By “apostolic order” we mean “the alignment envision by the King, communicated to […]
All of God, All of Me: Fullness of Obedience
I stood at the bedside of my son who the doctors said wouldn’t make it three more days. I had a ticket to Brasil in my jacket pocket and a promise that if I did in that nation what God asked me to do, He would save my three sons and their wives, as He […]

When the Supersaints Go Marching In: “I Go To Heaven, so Shut up and Listen to Me”
My Experience Trumps Accountability Consider why the first response of a person celebrating “I go to heaven all the time and live in the third heaven and ‘realms’ of Glory” will always be, “You don’t understand because you aren’t experiencing this.” Why is this first response? Because the sentiment of this person about accountability is […]
Purpose Purifies Prophetic Promise
Once you stop seeking potential and focus upon purpose, the filtering system of your revelation process will reach greater purity. The nebulous context of potential will leave you pursuing delusions more than destiny. The prophetic process requires interpretation, and the framework of the prophetic is purpose. The context of potential works against purity of perception […]
Ten Things I am Doing as We Enter a New Era

Here’s what we will do: We will battle against the trends of modern church-anity and church-growth-ism gone awry. We will recognize the difference between the accumulation of believers […]

I was moved to explore some Biblical conclusions concerning favor while observing two distinctly different messages from leaders today: Being rich is a sign and signal of favor. Or, Being rich is a sign and signal of worldliness. God intends to have billions available to kingdom for influence. Or, God intends to make the church so […]
Apostolic Company
When Alexander the Great conquered the world, he wept because there remained nothing more to conquer, and he set about to put a mark of Greek culture on every conquered land. To bring cultural influence into those nation states, he called an “apostolos” to his court and authorized him with an assignment. The apostle would […]
Hebrews 13:7 Kingdom Leadership Principles
“God has given you leaders responsible to guide you by convincing you to obey. Submit yourselves to that leadership role. The Bible says that we should obey people positioned in God-designed leadership roles. We should obey because they convince us to follow, not because they dictate or demand. Of course, that pretty much means that […]
