Level 4 of FreedomMinistry International is entitled, “Leaders Who Make Leaders.” I am personally leading this level at present as I continue to prepare leaders who make leaders, so I am actively involved in proving the principles to see if they produce the purpose. Fundamentally, kingdom is about leadership. And, kingdom leaders prepare and position […]

The Pioneering Spirit, Part 3
Paul and Barnabas Barnabas and Paul walked together because Barnabas went and got Paul when no one else had a level of trust in Paul’s salvation experience. They walked together for years, it seems, and when they ministered together as representatives of the Jerusalem Ecclesia and council of apostolic leaders, they were on the same […]
Jesus on Leadership
Jesus was brutal on leaders while being compassionate with the crowds. He saw leaders as blind leaders of the blind; so, He saw them all as blind but blamed the leaders for the blindness, not the crowds. He invested revelation in a rather small group of leaders with a strategy to alter the situation by […]
Church Growth as the Accumulation of Believers
When we removed kingdom from ekklesia [church], we set upon a course of redefining Ecclesia in ways that minimize and manipulate the meaning of Jesus’ ministry, teaching, and strategy. It is rather easily discovered that we simply marginalize Him in terms of function while attempting to worship Him in terms of Redemption. In this way, […]
The Pioneering Spirit, Part 4
Beware the tendency of the enemies of pioneering to glamorize previous pioneers. At the same time, beware the tendency of the enemies of pioneering to demonize previous pioneers. The enemies of pioneering, and the pioneering spirit, marginalize this foundation of leadership in more than one way, in other words. Turning pioneers into super heroes or […]

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 people. Their […]
Spiritual Fire
John said, “I indeed baptize with water because of repentance, but Someone is coming after me who will baptize you with Holy Spirit and fire. His fan is in His hand and He will completely clean His threshing floor; the chaff will be thrown (by the wind of the fan) into a fire that cannot […]
Revival and Awakening: Passion for Purpose
God has eternal purposes, and He is passionate for His purposes. This is the way to understand His love, fire, Glory, power, and Word. Without this backdrop of intention, any one aspect of God and His ways may become a cul-de-sac. When revival arrives, some aspect of His passion for purpose will manifest, and that […]
God Saves Nations
Let me respond to a statement I’ve been hearing lately from some christians. “God saves people, not nations.” Usually, this is part of an effort to discount the idea that God is going to bring revival to America. I don’t hear it from other nations too much, but many Americans seem to like the idea […]
