Apostolic and prophetic ministries, churches and leaders have the same opportunity to become “religious” as our predecessors. We have the same potential to get “stuck” as previous […]
INNOVATE – OR BECOME A DINOSAUR IN A MUSEUM Companies that have lost this creative and pioneering edge in the time we are living in quickly can become dinosaurs in a museum. Here’s an example of a company that was for a century the world’s most successful typewriter company – Smith & Corona. They believed […]
