In this episode we take a brief look at Haggai 2:19 asking the same question...is the seed still in the barn? Until then the plants had not produced their harvest, but God was promising a blessing and changes were coming. Can the same be true for North America?

In this episode we continue discussing the habit of multiply. If the gospel is going to spread rapidly and virally it can’t keep coming back to us. In professional ministry for 40 years, inadvertently Jeff had an addition mentality meaning that most things came back to him, but in movement we have a multiplication mentality which means that everything needs to go without us from us into other settings.

In this episode we discuss the last habit in our Habits Training course, Multiply. We spend some time talking about multiplication rather than addition in disciple making. We also look to the natural world of gardening to learn some spiritual lessons. We are all life long learners on this podcast and learning specifically what it means to multiply our lives as Christ followers. This download is part 1 covering the habit of multiply.

In this episode we download thoughts on going back as far back as possible to look at the function of the church. We spend a little time talking about the Trinity as a picture of the church. The church existing for itself (inward), the church existing for mission (outward), and the church existing in power (upwards). We spend time wrestling with the purpose of the church. 

In this episode we download thoughts on some paradigm shifts that have happened for us as we've leaned into the Habit of Assemble. We are wrestling on what God has in mind when he instituted the church in light of our western context. We are leaning into expressions of church for the sake of the mission.

In this episode we download thoughts on what it means to be a church. Why would a discovery Bible study become a church? What does it mean to assemble together? In DMM Assemblies (churches) are focused on the lost or engaging the lost rather than organizing around buildings, internal ministries, or the structures of the Western church.
