Still Asking...

We are still praying for the Lord of the Harvest to send workers into the harvest fields of St. Louis and Kansas City and we'll even help you in other cities as God may be calling you.

But, if you think the Americanized version of Christianity is working and you like things the way they are -please don't call me unless the where you are is truly making disciples and you are not bogged down with the expectations of others. We need new wine skins to be mobilized in the world, to build relationships with the unreached, to begin an organic New Testament model that makes disciples by beginning the discipleship process before commitments to Christ are made and that continues for life.

Are you weary of what you have experienced, do you feel tied down and unable to follow an organic way doing ministry, are you longing for freedom in ministry, do you want an opportunity to be involved in a ministry that moves beyond boundaries and man made expectations that hinder God's work? If so, read on.

Our planters get to move into a disciple-making ministry to the world who birth new churches that are not tied up in a system that drains. We want disciples who make disciples who teach new disciples to make disciples and we care little about how doing that looks. I tell the guys -follow God-do what He says-live and teach the Great Commission- teach them to obey -but don't get bogged down in doing things that are not clear in Scripture. (People are tired of man made rules and arguments about things that really don't matter). We do not dictate the end product (look and feel) as long as disciples are made by "Going, Baptising, and Teaching them to obey.

You don't have to keep doing what is often ineffective. Let's be the Church and do ministry in an organic New Testament way. Of course we have worship and fellowship and ministry in our disciple-making movement - all disciples do this. But we will not put God in a box. We let him lead each planter in freedom so they can move with God without getting the boot from disgruntled church members.

Would all of you who long for this -please post your thoughts. Hit comments, if you have never posted -put your name and email (no charge) and begin sharing your thoughts.

And, everything is on the table, so get after it.
