7 KINGDOM VALUES FOR PROPHETIC COMMUNITIES

I have been training people in prophetic ministry for 25 years. I love teaching everyday Believers how to hear God and walk in power.
KINGDOM VALUES FOR PROPHETIC COMMUNITIES
But about 12 years ago, I began to be stirred in my spirit to see prophets and prophetesses discovered, developed, and deployed into every realm of society. I am passionate about developing a global prophetic community that collaborates, communicates, and has a deep sense of true accountability. This would facilitate several key kingdom values:
1. It would restore credibility back to the office of the prophet.
2. It would create a platform for collective revelation. We each see in part, but together we have a more complete perspective.
3. It would build a relational structure that would end the isolation that seems to plague the office of the prophet.
4. It would help to create some core scriptural understanding and possibly some consensus to the New Testament role of the prophet and prophetess, including their purpose and their protocol.
5. It would become a vehicle for prophets to learn and grow.
6. It would create a platform where more mature prophets and prophetesses could evaluate the prophetic words that are released through the prophetic community. This would help define boundaries, as well as facilitate interpretation and application.
7. It would also give prophetic leaders keys to help them shepherd the prophets in their metron.
There are many more benefits than these, but you get the idea.
This passion to see a thriving prophetic community led Dan McCollam and me to found a School of the Prophets 12 years ago.
Every year we gather prophetesses and prophets from around the world for 5 days of community, training, teaching, and connection. We gather 300-500 prophets, prophetesses and the people who lead them to grow their prophetic connections, expand their leadership gifts, and learn how to cultivate their prophetic communities.
If you are called as a prophet or prophetess and are hungry to be a part of a prophetic movement that impacts the world, then why not join us for five fun and faith-filled days in the Spirit?
If you lead a church (or ministry) and you want to understand how to develop and grow a prophetic community, this school is also for you!

Have you ever found yourself in the midst of life's chaos, desperately needing a break, clarity, and a spiritual reset? Picture it like halftime – that pivotal moment when the coach steps in, recalibrates the team, and sparks a turnaround. The game isn't over; this is a chance to come back stronger and claim victory! In recent weeks, a resounding message has been echoing in my heart and mind: January is the Church's halftime! Our divine Coach is calling us to the huddle, to draw close, and let Him fine-tune our game plan – our values, thoughts, and behaviors. Amid the noise, He's inviting us to step away, knowing that leaning into these divine moments will catapult us into the second half, ready for victory. And in this game, we already know the final score – He wins!
Gen Z, labeled as the seemingly lost generation to Christianity, and Gen Alpha, the digital natives immersed in screens, stand at the crossroads of an era defined by the rapid evolution of technology. As they navigate the evolving landscape of identity, both personal and global, a crucial question reverberates: "Has the Church lost this next generation?"
Have you ever grappled with the intersection of an unwavering belief in a supernatural God who releases healing from heaven and the pragmatic world of science and medicine? Perhaps you've found yourself standing at the crossroads, fervently praying for a miracle yet receiving healing through the hands of a compassionate doctor. It's a tension many face—the delicate dance of faith in God's miraculous power juxtaposed with the gift of modern medicine. What if there is no tension at all and there is actually a beautiful integration of faith and science?
