  • The Martha Church Model

    The Martha Church Model

    The Martha Church Model begins with good intentions. As churches grow larger, programs become necessary to manage complexity numbers bring. Like Martha welcoming Jesus, churches aim to serve God and create meaningful experiences. They curate aesthetics, develop programs, organize ministries, and mobilize volunteers. The logic seems sound: more activity means…

  • The Principality System Exposed

    The Principality System Exposed

    Speaking to their tribe, this is how the principality works to prevent unity. It creates a powerful feedback loop: the media figures point to the pastors for spiritual authority, and the pastors point to the media figures for cultural influence.

  • Tribal Christianity

    Tribal Christianity

    If the church was visibly diverse, white, black, Latino, Asian, blue collar, white collar, no collar—we would, without needing to say a word, prove hateful rhetoric wrong, as we operate from a kingdom vantage point rather than a national one. But the salt has lost its savor.

  • The Synchronized Arc of Knowing God

    The Synchronized Arc of Knowing God

    Navigating 21st Century Spiritual Deception

  • The Ruth Method of Evangelism

    The Ruth Method of Evangelism

    Ruth had no reason to follow Naomi’s God. So why did she?

  • Internal Renovations

    Internal Renovations

    Jesus said in Luke 11:24-26, “When an unclean spirit goes out of a person, it passes through waterless places seeking rest, and finding none it says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ And when it comes, it finds the house swept and put in order. Then…

  • The Chosen Catalyst

    The Chosen Catalyst

    Rather than looking to a political leader to “bring revival,” believers must recognize that the revival has begun—just not in the way they expected.

  • A Theological Critique of Christian Nationalism (CN)

    A Theological Critique of Christian Nationalism (CN)

    Though I believe the Church should remain politically neutral, I understand what Christian Nationalists (CN) see happening in the world, and why their version of the gospel resonates. The body of Christ as a whole would agree that faith-based morals are declining everywhere.

  • The Takeover of Washington, D.C. Part 2

    The Takeover of Washington, D.C. Part 2

    Jesus did not send the Twelve or the Seventy with a political agenda. He did not instruct them to campaign for Him or proclaim that Rome had fallen. They were sent to preach the gospel.

  • SAN Report: The Takeover of Washington, D.C.

    SAN Report: The Takeover of Washington, D.C.

    The Church, designed as God’s primary instrument to transform culture through love and truth, has been diverted toward political power.

  • The Harvest Dispensation

    The Harvest Dispensation

    If the harvest is plentiful (Luke 10:2), but the laborers are few, then the real problem is not a shortage of people but a shortage of disciples.

  • The Testimony of the Civil Rights Movement

    The Testimony of the Civil Rights Movement

    The CRM stands as a forceful testimony of the Church’s prophetic witness. The movement not only confronted systemic racism but also teaches what the Church can accomplish when it operates with strategic focus and unity.

  • Introducing the Stronghold Analysis Network (SAN)

    Introducing the Stronghold Analysis Network (SAN)

    The Word of God is quick and powerful, sharper than any two-edged sword, but like any weapon in battle, it is most effective when used with precision. Jesus ministered with precision.

  • Modern Temples – 2, A Blueprint for Modern Spiritual Warfare

    Modern Temples – 2, A Blueprint for Modern Spiritual Warfare

    With eyes to see, it can seem overwhelming how much territory the enemy has taken. The spirit of Sennacherib seems to have many believers surrounded. How did this happen? Jesus said while men slept the enemy sowed tares, and it was while Samson slept, reflecting complacency, that his hair was…
