There is a massive wind of change that is finally coming. This spiritual climate shift is happening in order to blow away the things in our lives that have held us back. It will remove things we have "battled" with in the past. As long as we are in the place that God has called us, we will be safe. God is blowing away debris and preparing us now for a dramatic change.We need to embrace the changes that are coming and not be afraid.

We’ve  caught  God’s  passion  and  urgency  to  have  our  hearts  ready  for  the  huge  harvest  of  Papa’s  sons  and  daughters  who  will  soon  be  coming  into  His  house.  He  is  inviting  us  as  a  family  to  walk  in  the  fullness  of  His  Spirit  in  a  more  dynamic  and  real  way  than  we’ve  ever  experienced  before.  

It’s  time  for  the  body  of  Christ  to  rise  up  and  be  the  full  expression  of  Jesus  together!

Winds  of  Change  will  be  a  jet  stream  used  by  God  to  usher  us  into:

• Experiencing  revival  that  will  restore  hope  and  life

• Inviting  Heart  transformation  that  impacts  our  homes  and  communities

• Living  more  wholeheartedly  in  relationship  with  one  another

•Representing  Christ  with  increasing  accuracy  as  His  ambassadors  of  love  and  reconciliation

Experiencing Revival• Revival--To live again! Jesus breathing

life back into us!

To sustain revival, in addition to flowing with Holy Spirit, there has to be openness to character development, learning how to live whole-heartedly and led by the Spirit, individually and corporately.

Equipping the Saints

• Ephesians 4:11-16

• You are all qualified as assistants—when possible we would like you to be paired up and we will make the decision who the leader is. We can’t make that decision until after we find out who is in and what regions you are from. Current home group leaders would continue to lead.

• Open home groups for the first 3 session before becoming closed groups

• New groups could start along the way.

Some Practicals:
