I have experienced the Reflection and Prayer Training as a participant and have also been on team as a Facilitator. I learned more than I could begin to list in this space and I just encourage anyone who can take the time off to take part in this training. I guarantee you come home totally prepared to fully present any of the twelve topics that Dr. Davis has prepared. Every single word on each page is even "copypright perfect" so that not only you, but the churches and places you present to, can use the materials you receive. You bring home everything you need to be able to step out and do this. The topics are just rich - everything from how to be a servant leader to how to find a rhythm of rest....It's no surprise that a large percentage of participants go ahead and return to be on team....time and again. I will be on board for my second time as Facilitator in October of '08 and can't wait! There is usually scholarship help available for funding and Evelyn Davis is just a wonderful woman.

  How Do We #ReCenterChrist​? * Personally? Corporately? Organically not Programatically? * ​ In our Ministries and Meetings? Our Groups and Gatherings? With Family and Friends?   * ReCentering Christ We intentionally shift from running an agenda to responding to a Person. We devote intentional time to four simple, repeatable practices:   1. Invite — Welcome Our Savior’s Presence “Jesus will be called Immanuel” (which means “God is with us”). — Matthew 1:23 What we are doing: Addressing Jesus personally. Honoring Him as present Lord — not speaking generally “to the room,” but to Him. Language we can use: “Jesus, we welcome You.” “We worship You and recognize Your authority over this time.” “Our desire is to listen, learn, and follow Your lead.” Practice: Worship — brief, focused, Christ-directed. Outcome: A gathered awareness that Jesus is not an idea we discuss but a Lord we encounter.   2. Invoke — Petition Holy Spirit Participation “The disciples were fi...

NEW THOUGHT-PROVOKING CONTENT √ Click Here Why Am I Relaunching Your Network? •It Started With A Sabbath-Search Last year the Lord led me to take an extended sabbath, disconnecting from the teams I served, to recalibrate my ministry focus. During those months, I daily sought the Spirit’s guidance by asking-seeking-knocking for the mind of Christ. The relaunch is a result of that search. •The Spirit Burst Romans 12:2 Into My Mind And Heart The voice of the Lord came to me many times through Romans 12:2: Be transformed by the renewing of you mind. First, for my life and family. Then also for this ministry. A fresh calling to “engage and equip leaders across the global Church to reimagine their perspective on ministry: prayer, making-disciples, the Church in the 21st century, evangelism, justice, citywide collaboration.” •And Then A New Laser-Focus on  # Reimagine ... Renewing of our minds is a call to reimagine (assess: review-rethink-recalibrate) •Next Came An ...

Corporate Prayer: Praying in Community

Image
Learning from Others in Community Prayer by Andrew Wheeler I went to a seminar today at Light & Life Ministries in Elgin. The speaker was Phil Miglioratti (see my previous post) and the topic was primarily raising up more effective prayer in our churches. The entire seminar was incredible - if you ever get a chance to attend one of Phil’s seminars, I highly recommend it. But the point of this post is how uniquely he emphasized the importance of praying in community. Praying in community is important for many reasons, several of which I cover in the book. But Phil emphasized one today that I hadn’t considered before, and that’s how we learn from each other when we pray together. I’ve often said that prayer is more than we think it is because God himself is bigger than we can possibly imagine. It follows naturally that none of us has all the answers on prayer and none of us prays in a way that completely captures all that prayer should be. As we pray together, the...
