The Wealth of the Wicked for the Righteous This principle is Biblical and identifies God’s ways, His strategy of provision storage for covenant purpose. That is, God stores up wealth for His covenant people to fulfill the covenant’s purpose.
Judgment as a Leadership Function
Lynch on Leadership: New Year’s Day is mark for measurement. We tend to look at summarizations of the previous term. Reports are generated for various reasons because the turn of the year is a marker. So, leaders should embrace this opportunity to analyze the available data. Every goal must be measurable to have real meaning. […]
People and Process: Ecclesia
“People and Process” principles are important to Jesus. In the Body or Ecclesia, what we have come to call “church,” He has provided leadership as a means of preparing and positioning people to produce, do the “work” of ministry. This leadership, when properly functioning, prepares and positions people to work out the processes that produce […]
Understanding Dreams: Simple Conclusions

I don’t hear it from other nations too much, but many Americans seem to like the idea […]
Crossing Boundaries of Prophetic Protocol
Immature Prophetic Function The difference between evil people doing false prophecy and good people breaking prophetic protocols is significant. Good people with good intentions may cross proper prophetic protocol boundaries for many reasons. They may end up in areas of dysfunction that call for correction and discipline even when they are basically good […]
Leadership Blindness
“You blind guides, filtering out a gnat while swallowing down a camel!” Blindness is simply lack of sight, but it is more than optics. Blindness can be total or selective. Blindness can occur when they eyes have 20/20 vision. Blindness can be a choice, an avoidance behavior, a coping mechanism, a darkness sought out between […]
