Catching The Train Of The End Time Army

The headless heavy armor was also another picture of modern church that required much to operate, like funding, building, programs, overhead, etc. They didn’t have the mobility for war. The end time church, however, would be free from those burdens, because it focused on manifesting Christ in us, the hope of glory!

Well, I heard someone say that the only way that every eye would be able to see Yeshua when He returns is because of modern technology. And, I could see how this connectedness is how the endtime church will rise and be mobilized the change the world.

These videos:
After sitting through the first video or faith training, I thought that the teaching was heretical, but I had always been fascinated by how New Age people were capable of producing astonishing results in their lives "miracles" so to speak while believers mostly lived defeated. And, the faith training explains it. So, I am sitting with the teachings and asking the Father to show me more. I can see by one comment on the first video that the "Christians" have already come out to throw stones.  

"Father forgive them for they know not what they do."

Ah, so, I am writing this to give a review of Jean's book which I just finished more than anything else, so let me move forward with that.

I saw Jean crushed and pass from death to life again at least three times in the book. Reading her personal account of walking with the Lord is astonishing. You want to go deeper, and, yet, you are not sure if you are ready to pay the cost.

"If we suffer, we shall also reign with him. If we deny him, he will also deny us."  -2 Timothy 2:12

THE PROS:

• It is impossible to read the book without getting caught up in Jean's visions and walk with Christ. It reads like one of the best fantasy novels, especially towards the end and fills one with hope.
• Jean offer the truth about the current state of the church in America, complete with fearful, controlling leadership and apathy, disdain or denial of the supernatural.
• Reading the book encourages one to dive deeper into the Love of God with all of one's being and to truly entrust Him with one's life.
• This book does not read like a textbook; it's very auto-biographical in nature, and, in that way, entertaining instead of boring--it still manages to challenge the basic Christian on what they believe is possible and expected of them.
• The book is an invitation to join Jean on her journey to living in the fullness of Christ. The testimonies from the people at the end were a welcomed surprised that warmed my heart and confirmed my sense that Jean was a genuine and loving teacher.

THE CONS:

• The grammar and spelling is atrocious at times. 
• It is sometime difficult to follow the story line because the book jumps from narration to stream of conscious.

I have often felt sorry that I could not connect with the authors of great Christian works after reading their books, such as Cindy Trimm. Jean Miller makes herself accessible to those that want to go deeper in the Lord. I'll follow any leader that washes her disciple's feet the way that Jean does.

The 40 Day Soul Fast

So, yesterday I started the 40 day Soul Fast with Cindy Trimm, and I have to say I'm impressed that she is selling the solution and indirectly selling the tools to get better results. I got the app rather than the book and the physical journal (or is is electronic?).

The website is http://www.soulfast.com

Check it out. It's pretty cool how she's considering how people consume content today. So, she's offering the traditional book form and the e-book, it looks like. I just wanted to share this quote that was in the journal today cause it spoke to me.

“The way to be truly happy is to be truly human, and the way to be truly human is to be truly godly.” --J. J. Packer

Dr. Trimm is on Twitter, Facebook, and Linkedin from what I noticed. I'm not following her tweets or subscribed to her Facebook, but I just wanted to point out how she's aligning herself with new technology. It's exciting. And, I'm excited to be participating in the 40 Day Soul Fast.

A Purpose Driven Life

I generally make blog posts based on something that I am studying, but I have not picked up the book titled The Purpose Drive Life. In fact, maybe to my shame, I avoided it because I thought it was a fad. I am always late to jump on the bandwagon for anything (i.e. Facebook, Twitter, etc.).

I wanted to talk about how all these things online can contribute to noise (distraction) in our lives. Whatever we create online is indicative of who we are. What activities are we doing on our social networks? Playing games? Ministering? Catching up with old friends? This is not a question of whether playing online games is a waste of time or not, because God created all things for us to richly enjoy, but this is a question of are we are going onto this sites decidedly to play games, message friends, or minister to the loss.

The decision is what matters. What often happens is that we sign into these websites with one intention and then are sidetracked by other irrelevant information. Sometimes we even forget why we signed on in the first place? What am I doing? Before signing on a decision should be made of how much time we want to spend on that website and what we want to do there. The websites are tools for communication, but they've become hang-outs for bored people that have not really thought about what they should be doing.

I found something that I believe is worth my time. For the last couple of months I have been helping a Christian Non-Profit in South Africa establish an online presence. I am new to the world of non-profits, but one thing I understand is that they depend on the help and support of donors and volunteers. My recent purpose was to create a Causes account for them on Facebook and to start a campaign to dig a well for a local community.

So many years of aimless networking brought me to this point at which I can sow into the Kingdom. God can use whatever we're good at to reach people. For some it is singing, for some it is giving hugs or encouragement, and for others like me it is giving technical expertise and marketing advice. I never imagined that I would be able to use this type of gift for the Kingdom. Praise God! We do not have to move away from who we are or what we are to sow into the Kingdom. In fact, we need to redefine what it really means to wear the missionary hat.

My mother is a missionary to the ICU at her hospital. She ministers to many on their death beds. I am a new media missionary. I minister to those lost in meaningless chit-chat and advertisements. What is your area of missions? Will you make a decision to make purposeful action in that area today?
