China the Sheep

Since the 1940’s, many believers in China have been convinced that they have been called to the privilege of leading millions of Muslims to Jesus. Their vision is that they will quietly invade the nations to the east of China, and continue what they perceive to be the evangelism of the earth, starting from Jerusalem in the first century and moving east around the planet, until it returns to Jerusalem.

Last Chance Before Interstate

After World War II, national leadership in the United States began building a system of highways that could facilitate speedy transfer of military from any location in the country to any other place in the country. The Inter-State Highways had requirements for managing speed that included sharpness of curves and steepness of inclines.

Blog News

Some of the most effective lessons on knowing the Shepherd’s voice can be […]

Walk a Mile

Never criticize someone until you have walked a mile in their shoes. By then, you are safely a mile ahead of them, and you have their shoes, so you can say anything you want to without fear.

Good Leaders Listen

Brad McClendon had a prophetic experience in which he saw Jesus, seated on His throne, with all His leaders gathered before Him. The Lord was sharing things about Himself, but only a small number of the leaders were listening to Him, because it seemed so basic. They were trying to look past Him to see the things that were about to come on the earth. When these things came upon […]

Two Millennial Truths

A work that happens through the gift of prophecy is the ability to interpret events by the application of Scripture that explains them or by receiving fresh revelation from the Spirit that God is saying something to help the events make sense, or to instruct believers regarding how to respond to the events. The interpretation of Scripture that is prophetic in nature is possible through the gift of prophecy. A […]
