Can the West Be Converted?
Is your pursuit of growth actually holding your church back? Dr. Michael W. Goheen challenges our obsession with quick fixes and metrics, sharing how one dying congregation found renewal by letting go of conventional church growth wisdom. Drawing on Lesslie Newbigin's insights and his own experience revitalizing congregations, Goheen reveals why our cultural assumptions about growth and success may be the biggest barriers to authentic church transformation. Learn how to move beyond superficial solutions to lasting renewal.

    Helping people discover their writing abilities as a ministry seems to fall short of what I find in the scriptures. Am I missing something here imagine the apostle Paul going on missionary trips and eventually he says I’ve been beaten 5×40 stripes minus one I’ve been shipwrecked all in the effort of, searching for people to help them hone in on their writing styles

    The birth of Jesus is also the birth of the king, not a president or a governor. The wise men saw the star of a king not the that of a president or an executive governor. For a president or a governor can be elected and be removed after tenure of service, but a king is born, to rule, to have mamlakah (Dominion, kingdom and rulership)7:05. Jesus is the king of kings who revolutionized the whole human life. Praise the name of Jesus. Amen. Thanks to you all for given us deeper knowledge of the birth of Jesus Christ our Lord and kudos to Rev'd Lawal's understanding. Merry Christmas

    You are unaware. God is providing the awareness. You are uncertain. God is calling you to the center of certainty within yourself. You are conflicted. God is providing the pathway out of conflict. You are self-demeaning and demeaning of others. God is restoring to you your true value and purpose in the world. The world is changing, but you do not see. God has given you the eyes to see and the ears to hear, but they are different from what you do today and what you understand today. Humanity will fail without the New Revelation. The world will become ever darker, more dangerous and conflicted without the Revelation. Humanity will falter and fail in the face of its own errors and lack of clarity. The resources of the world will be spent through conflict, competition and war. People will rise up against their governments. People will rise up against one another. There will be untold conflict in the future, greater and more continuous than anything you have seen before. It is the New Revelation that holds the missing ingredients to your understanding, the key to your awareness and the source of your power, strength and determination. For this you must have a serious mind, take your life seriously and begin to attend to the greater needs and requirements of your life. That is why God has sent the Revelation. This is the Revelation. We are the Revelation. There are no heroes to worship now, no individuals to deify, only greater responsibility to be assumed and a greater wisdom to be utilized. There is no escape through personal enlightenment. There is no running away. There is no self-deception. There is only greater resonance and responsibility, greater sacrifice and contribution. That is what will save the world. That is what will save humanity’s freedom and self-determination in a universe where freedom is rare and must be protected very carefully. This is what will restore dignity to the individual and the ability to contribute something of greater power and significance, no matter what your circumstances may be. Hear these words-not with your ideas, your beliefs or your contentions, but with your heart, your deeper nature. For God can only speak to what God has created in you. God did not create your social personality. God did not create your ideas and beliefs. God did not create your decisions, your failures and your regrets. God can only speak to what God created in you, which is something deeper, more pervasive and more natural within you. The New Message is calling to you. Once you become aware of it, then you must face the challenge of recognition and what this will mean for your life. People reject the Revelation because they do not want to change. They do not want to have to reconsider their beliefs, their ideas and their position in society.
