A Shift in Leadership

The Transition

shifted from the industrial age to the communication age. Nations and economies that do not shift are left behind and become obsolete. Obsolescence is a terrible price to pay for not being willing to change. Obsolete means to be of a discarded or an outmoded type. It means to be out-of date. Methods can become obsolete. Models and structures can become obsolete. Organizations can become obsolete. When something becomes obsolete it is no longer relevant. We are living in a world of change. The Church will not become obsolete in a changing world. God will upgrade our methods, structure, and models to be able to impact our world. This change for many may seem like a quantum jump. This is a sudden and significant change, advance, or increase. The shift from a pastoral to an apostolic role is a significant jump. However, by the grace of God we can make the transition. Quantum jumps have happened throughout the history of the Church. God often moves us into greater levels of ministry quickly and suddenly. These shifts are happening quickly around the world. God has been preparing the Church for this jump. It is now time to take the leap and move into another level of anointing and power. Challenging Tradition In order to move into this new position, we are challenging some of the traditional ways we have been taught. Restoration will always challenge our theology and adjust our way of thinking. The New Testament
