In this episode - the fourth in a series - Gary and Jim discuss the next step in developing a Kingdom Concept. Here are a few of the main ideas from the podcast: - The Kingdom Concept really is about capturing the uniqueness of your church in order to propel your church forward. - They are very specifically our local predicament or our place where God's placed us as a church, our collective potential, which is the people that God has gathered together in our church, and then our apostolic esprit or the passion that we have in what we would like to see fulfilled through our church. - Before beginning on the Kingdom Concept, we’re really working off the assumption that glorifying God and making disciples is a non-negotiable. - To begin pulling the three areas above together, we’re going to work through four key things that are all tied together. - The first one is your church's signature story or maybe a key verse or both. The second is an amplified sentence of our kingdom concept. The third is a short phrase, and then the last is, how would you say that in one word?  - What’s really cool is as a team that's working through this, now all of a sudden you have this powerful shared language that everyone is on the same page with, everyone is excited about.  - If a team will work hard at putting a kingdom concept together, now you've got a vision team that are about to take off on this journey, and they're in the same vehicle and they know their destination and they're going in the same direction.

Do you ever come across some words at exactly the right time? After chatting with some folk I know about their feelings and challenges of the very real weight and pressure of a big idea they've been trying to get moving in their community, I was listening to a podcast that really resonated with our conversation 👂 I shared these words from Dr Kamna Patel with them and I'm now sharing here for anyone else that needs to hear this right now, or for past you, or for future you 👇 "There are moments when I find myself stopping myself from thinking too far into the future. Stopping myself from thinking too far of what could be built and coming back to what is possible and what is in my control in the here and now. Setting up the building blocks of what is to come. The here and the now of practice may not be where I want it to go, but it's what I can influence and I have to let go of the rest. I think it's sort of what it means to be reflexive. To understand the orders of my influence and power. The cost, and it's a very real cost of pushing a vision, of pushing an idea, of disrupting and acting still with credibility and respect for the bigger picture. I can't dismantle development, but what steps can I take in service to a bigger vision of what is possible?" This episode with Dr Kate Bird and Charmaine McCaulay and podcast is well worth a listen if, like me, you're looking to develop your understanding of decolonial theory and practice 👇 https://lnkd.in/ePZ6iYmn #decolonialtheory #decolonialpraxis #criticalreflixivity #influence #power #communitydevelopment

In a recent enlightening conversation on "The School of Greatness" podcast with Lewis Howes, Vishen Lakhiani shared insights into groundbreaking research by Dr. William G. Braud, highlighting how our thoughts can tangibly affect others. This discussion beautifully intersects with the "E" - Engagement or Connectedness aspect of the BLISS in CORE Framework I advocate. It underscores the vital importance of nurturing our connectedness with the universe and ourselves, emphasizing that our thoughts and intentions carry the power to influence and heal beyond the physical realm. This connectedness is not just about interpersonal relationships but extends to a profound, universal bond, reminding us of the incredible impact we can have through mindful engagement and positive intent. Let's embrace this wisdom, recognizing the power of our connectedness and the significant role it plays in our journey towards healing and fulfillment. #Mindfulness #Connectedness #BLISSinCORE #PersonalGrowth #burnout #beatburnout #beattechburnout #techburnout

Tim Barnett, author of "The Deconstruction of Christianity" and host of Red Pen Logic With Mr. B, talks us through the complex issue in our latest episode of the Indigitous Podcast.
