The early church faced the same issues and schisms over false teachings that we face today. Fragile churches are left damaged and heartbroken. The Apostle John wrote his letters to bring the church back to clarity of faith and unity. He writes that the whole...
Make a place for wonder and mystery to always be present in your life and ministry. If you pastor a church, grow a family, or develop a business plan, there will be times when you find yourself falling into ruts of predictability. When you realize you have slipped...
Our global civilization is in an epoch cycle of change. This cycle of change will test the things we know and believe. Human solutions will fail with ever-increasing frequency because earthbound realities will not meet the needs of desperate people living in desperate...
I've always appreciated the wisdom offered from past elders in the Church. Their wisdom faithfully plays out in the future, revealing our current reality. Derek Prince is one elder with such wisdom. In the attached video, Derek explained what is happening now in some...
Our ministries, in whatever form those ministries are revealed, are to prepare the way for a visitation from Jesus. "The Lord now chose seventy-two other disciples and sent them ahead in pairs to all the towns and places he planned to visit" (Luke 10:1). Jesus had a...
The Lord wants to release a fresh move of His Spirit that will bring supernatural healing to the afflicted. There is one thing the Church needs to be willing to do before this happens. That one thing is the ability to identify and expose a demon's identity that is...

As I was reading through Luke chapter 2, I saw a concerning image. It was of a person who realized, by the choices they made, to remove themselves from the place where God told them a promise would be fulfilled. In their moment of realization, panic set in. They began...
I've always believed the accounts of Jesus' miracles. I have carried that belief since the day I was first saved as a young boy. It has been an unshakeable belief in what the world considers to be impossible. In that belief, I held onto my young and innocent faith,...
There comes a time in our process of spiritual maturity that we stop crying about the pains of life we experience. It is there when we discover a critical truth. The attached quick video explains what I am thinking....
