Leaders Should be Writing – repost

Given the amazing level of technology available to modern man, leaders should be producing more coorespondence and written revelation. The opportunity to function in this way could hardly be avoided without conscious substitution of other priorities or a failure to recognize this discipline as a priority of leaders. Leaders should be writing. Here’s my thinking: […]

The Next Seven Years, Part 3

“Half time adjustments” made by football and basketball coaches represent an understanding of what the other team has been doing well or taken advantage of and what your team has been failing to take advantage or of failed to defend. The adjustment isn’t a new game plan but a respond to “how we are doing […]

Experiencing the Glory of the Kingdom

Jesus asks some deeply-probing questions of His disciples with direct reference to “the glory of His kingdom.” These questions come in the context of the Transfiguration and relate to how the kingdom manifests through representatives of the kingdom of God. While these verses are seldom ever related to the Transfiguration, taking them in the context […]

Defining Ecclesia as “The Accumulation of Believers”

Previous spiritual generations have walked us through conflicts and clashes about the power of the Spirit, the authority of the Scriptures, the fundamentals of doctrine, the Providence of God.

His “fatal” flaw was women. Not that David was a sex nut as much […]

Trials Are Not Strangers

Peter says something about our thinking and perception with respect to trials: “Do not think a stranger has come to your house or that the experience you are having is a stranger to your life when fiery trials arrive. Don’t sing ‘There a Stranger in My House’ because your communion with Christ checks some luggage […]

Leaders Who Make Leaders

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 […]

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 […]
