Pastors of Peace

One of the aspects of pressing toward movement, is the idea of finding the "person of peace" as referenced in Luke 10.  Our hope is that we find people in the harvest that fit some basic criteria.

1. They receive the messenger.
2. They receive the message.
3. They receive the mission.

The work of the Spirit is preparing people in these communities we are going into.  Jesus is already at work and waiting for us.   You know one when you find one.  It's a real joy.

There is another person of peace that is out there, that needs to be found,  the "Pastor of Peace".  God is not done with his church as some may think.  He is taking it back and reforming it.  The leaders from many denominations, non-denoms, and house churches are feeling His pull. 

As we talk to pastors and explain Discipleship Multiplication Principles, they reveal their long desire to see the lost won in their city.  They want their people to be involved in the harvest. They realize that they have modeled and invested in a "come and see" church.  They want a "go and tell" church that embraces the Great Commission.

Pastors are receiving the messengers, the message and the mission.  They need to know how to do the stuff, so they can see the magic. (Fruitful and Multiply)

As you pray for laborers and persons/households of peace, don't forget to pray for Pastors of Peace!
