This Scripture Drives/Directs My #Reimagine Journey
Stop imitating the ideals [and being confined to the traditions of your Church] culture
but be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think.
This will empower you to discern God’s will as you [pray and] live a beautiful life,
satisfying and perfect in his eyes. Romans 12:2 The Passion Translation and [my paraphrasing]

The Hope Within Us DECONSTRUCTION TRAIL DEC 22 by Michael Donahoe Have you ever felt guilty because you did not say something to someone about Jesus? Do you feel obligated to speak your mind about a particular sin? Do you feel it is your duty as a Christian to force every opportunity into a chance to tell someone about salvation? Quite frankly, I disagree with all of the above. I agree that some people have the gift of evangelism and should…
Read more…"One True Church; Different Expressions of the Spirit" NOTE: Scroll these modules for content to teach from a fresh perspective and questions to use in discussion/seminar settings Something amazing happens when we apply Galatians 5:22–23, not merely to the lives of individual disciples, but to the corporate Body of Christ, the Church. It becomes a Lens for unity without uniformity “The fruit of the Spirit is love, as evidenced by joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,…
Read more…5 Summer Prayer Action Steps Phil Miglioratti We’ve entered the dog-days of summer (July and August) — this often oppressive and sweltering time of year that coincides with traditional summer slumps in church attendance as families scatter for summer vacations and other summertime activities. But our need for prayer is never greater. Here are five suggestions to make your dog days of summer sparkle with spiritual freshness: Family table time — Ask each church family to use at least one family…
Read more…Q Place Groups for Curious People Spiritual curiosity is high and more people are purchasing the Bible for the first time, but many people who are spiritually curious are not looking for a one-way monologue about the Bible from an expert. Instead, they want someone alongside who offers opportunities for feedback, engagement, and support. As a follower of Jesus, you could be that person! Come to Q Place Coaching, and see how you can start a group set up to be safe and…
Read more…Praying With Jesus For An Unknown Missionary Phil Miglioratti Decades ago, I was struck by a very simple, brief, public service announcement that I heard on the radio while driving. That announcement from decades ago continues to play in my mind. It has forever changed the way I relate to a specific set of people. “How should I treat a disabled person?” was the question asked in the promo. “Like a person” was the eye-opening answer. That simple truth reminds me to take time to…
Read more…Thanks so much for reading this month's news from The Initiative, a community committed to "walking in deeper friendship with Jesus and his followers, so that the love of Christ might exceed all divisions." We do this primarily through prayer, sharing of our lives, and proactive work for greater unity. As we start another calendar year, I've continued to pray and reflect on the theme of tables and how God wants to expand who we "sit with" and how we "sit together". I've got more thoughts…
Read more…Jesus. Mascot? King? or _____? Trey Ferguson looks at the crucial difference between a Jesus-as-Mascot, a conquering King Jesus™, or The Risen Christ? The suffocation of the soul has rarely hampered American pride in being Christian. And nothing embodies that pride about being a good ol’ “Bible-believing” Christian quite like King Jesus™. I’m not talking about Jesus of Nazareth who humbly spent his first evening in a feeding trough some three decades before he was brutally tortured to death…
Read more…The Missing Piece of Discipleship Scot McKnight's Site By Mike Glenn Photo by Denny Müller on Unsplash Some things are only learned by doing. We can go to a workshop on changing a tire. We can watch a video on how to do it, but until we’ve heard that life draining “thump-thump” telling us we have a flat tire, we may never learn how to change a tire. The process of finding the tire tool, pulling the spare out of the trunk, loosening the lug…

How God Shaped the Early Ekklēsia
Years ago, I visited a church in South Asia. It quickly became evident that the rectangular building where we met—complete with a cross above the entrance, rows of red plastic chairs facing a handcrafted wooden pulpit, a drum set, loudspeakers, microphones and stands, as well as a soundboard—bore a striking…

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!!!
