The more we mature and develop and come into the purposes of God for our lives, the more we must focus upon our strengths as opposed to our weaknesses. There comes a time when we need to let go of our weaknesses and make investment where we already have strengths. We must continue to calibrate the core. If we have weaknesses in our core (our spiritual life, our relationships, etc.) we have to lift those weaknesses, but in our mission the more we mature, the more we narrow our focus into our strengths.
In this episode David and Donna talk about getting into our zone. Continue reading for the episode notes. (more…)

If you are a Christ following leader, whether in ministry or in the marketplace, you are called to do something more than simply make a living or build commerce.

I’ve always had a lot of unique thoughts, and I’ve written millions of words in my lifetime. In fact, I’ve written almost a million words in my journal since 2012. I’ve only published a fraction of those words, which is a good thing, but I should have published a lot more of them.
One of the things that has kept me from publishing more of my work is the feeling that I need to know more before I publish something. I am a thinker and I usually feel my thoughts on a matter need to mature more before I make them public. I often hesitate because I may later discover I was wrong, I may change my mind, or someone may call me out and prove me wrong, at least in their mind?
I have to write anyway. I have to express the prophetic revelation as I see it, the revelation as it was given me. My revelations, like everyone else’s, are imperfect because we look as though through a veil or a darkened glass. What we see in our humanity is but a fraction of reality and truth.

Our stuff, our possessions, can keep us from moving forward into the future, it can stifle our creativity and productivity, and it can anchor us in an unhealthy mentality. Our stuff is intended to facilitate us, to help us, not hinder us or hold us back in any way. Our possessions are tools, and each one of them should serve a purpose, be it functionality, utility, or memory.
We’ve already dealt with a lot of the things left over from our previous lives and relationships. We have a lot more stuff to deal with, in fact, we are in the middle of the second major wave of getting rid of stuff. There is a freedom that comes with releasing things. We gain freedom when we release old ways and old paths. We feel a new sense of freedom when we move forward in an uncluttered world. We feel free from the dark grip of past hurts when we let go of the things that take us back in an untimely and undesired way to the past. (more…)
