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]

I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you (Jesus, in John 17:21-22) ___________ PROLOGUE “In John 17, Jesus prays for the unity of all believers, asking that they may be "one" just as He and the Father are one, so the world will believe God sent Him. This prayer, often called the High Priestly Prayer, emphasizes a deep spiritual oneness in love, truth, and…
Read more…Releasing Your Church’s Social Capital Jim Morgan Listen to an Audio Version of this Blog Post Pursuing church growth destroys Social Capital. Pursuing churchgoer and community growth enhances it. Seeking the welfare of a church, its members, and a community shouldn’t be competing objectives. However, if concerns about institutional “success” or “survival” lead to internally-oriented definitions of “church” and its intended “customer”, then Social Capital will suffer…

Read more…Christocentric Leadership Robert Condly Many Christians have a love-hate relationship with leadership. Some have issues with anyone presiding over them, but others carry on internal debates about the legitimacy of becoming a leader themselves. This is an enormous subject, so without going into a ton of details, let’s accept the apostle Paul’s take on the matter. “It is a trustworthy statement: if any man aspires to the office of overseer, it is a fine work he desires to do.” - 1 Timothy 3:1…

Read more…Dear Discipleship-first Friends, Most leaders we talk to aren’t questioning whether disciple making matters. They’re questioning why it feels harder than it should. They’re preaching it. They’re teaching it. They’re running programs around it. And yet… Fewer people are being discipled deeply. Fewer leaders feel confident multiplying others. More churches feel stuck repeating what used to work. And please know… this is not because leaders don’t care. It’s because the disciple…

This makes it possible to struggle for a better world not out of frustration,…

As we shared in the previous email update, he spoke to 17,000 pastors and church leaders on the topic, “Mobilizing Your Evangelists.” He defined the biblical gift of the evangelist and shared 9 common traits of an evangelist based on the life of Philip, the Evangelist in Acts. Then he gave ways pastors can affirm and partner with evangelists in their churches and ministries. You can watch his full 30-minute…

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!!!
