The word religion comes from the Latin religio and it’s a compound word which means “return to bondage.” And I tell people that the word religion isn't even in the Bible. Some Believers are quick to point…

Humility, therefore, tells us that we should not presume our personal expression of Christianity is aligned perfectly with God's heart. How can we examine ourselves? We can measure the focus of our lives with the last great command of the Lord, called by Bible scholars the "Great Commission." What is…

And it has been haunting me. “In a country that was over eighty-five percent Christian, almost everyone gathered on Easter Sunday [1994] to remember the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ” (18). “But one week later… Christians in Rwanda took up machetes, looked fellow church members in the face, and hacked their…

Read more…#ReimagineCHURCH…begins with people, not programs 10 Problems With Church Programming and 1 Perspective Shift By Eric Geiger on Mar 07, 2023 Here are ten observations from my church resourcing days that I think most church leaders would agree with about church programming—the number of programs, events, and activities a local church offers: 1. More activity does not mean more godliness. While preachers have long said “if the devil can’t get you to sin, he will just get you busy” applies to…

Thanks for welcoming me to the Forum. I had thought I was already a member through the Prayer Leaders Network, but the sign in process wouldn’t allow me to sign in using my passwords from that site, so I created another account.
I had wanted to commend the article that I received from y’all by email about dealing with 4 realities that make it difficult for Intercessors/prayer ministry leaders and pastors/church leadership to build a praying culture in the church. I thought it was very insightful and a helpful perspective. Thank you for the article.
Hi Phil.
As a new member, I received 2 emails from you.
The first, informing me that my membership had been approved, contained 4 links all containing significant errors. None of the links worked, but I was able to deduce what the errors were so correct them for access. Not a good start! You should examine the links in the email that was sent two me to ensure this doesn't happen to other new members.
Links in the second email regarding my profile appear to be OK.
Steve
Thank you!
Thanks, Bro!!!
