Robert Henderson started to explore the question, "what would the seven mountains of culture look like in a reformed state?" There is much talk in the apostolic and prophetic community about reformation and transformation, but sometimes, we don't have a clear vision of what it would actually look like for these spheres of influence to be modeled, shaped, and impacted by believers who carry the kingdom of God into their everyday places of assignment.

I had an encounter that left me shaken and shocked. What I saw was clearly a picture of the church…clearly in my spirit, that is, because my intellect was confounded. It didn't make sense. In my encounter, the vision I saw was shocking and quite mysterious. I have had many visions of the Church, of reformation, but this one was markedly different. It sure didn’t look like a vision of the Church, but it immediately felt like one. I was standing in an apocalyptic looking environment. It was dark and weighty. In front of me was an absolutely massive, burning crater. God immediately ...

These stories of 15 Anabaptist martyrs represent thousands of men and women who witnessed to their faith with their lives during the sixteenth century. These accounts are based the court records, letters, and personal diaries compiled in MARTYRS MIRROR by Thieleman J. van Braght and first published in 1660. The Anabaptist Christians took their stand on baptism, confession of faith, the priesthood of all believers, sowing love rather that fighting, and a firm commitment to follow Jesus Christ in every area of their lives—their words, relationships, business dealings, values, goals, and ...

Theologian and reformer John Wycliffe never had the opportunity to take his doctrines outside of his native England, but he could never have imagined that his teachings would one day travel as far as 920 miles east to Bohemia. In fact, while his contentious convictions aroused much ado....

When an obscure monk named Martin Luther tacked his theses on the door of the Wittenberg church in 1517, protesting corrupt practices, he was virtually unknown. Within months his ideas spread across Germany then all of Europe; within years their author was not just famous but infamous, responsible for catalyzing the violent wave of religious reform that would come to be known as the Protestant Reformation and engulfing Europe in decades of bloody war.

The patterns of reform are clear in the Bible and how they touched all areas of society. This short but powerful book covers those patterns and the examples given. It also covers how to transition through seasons of change both as an individual and as a leader.We should also be sure to have "principles" in the things we attempt to do.

For five centuries, Martin Luther has been lionized as an outspoken and fearless icon of change who ended the Middle Ages and heralded the beginning of the modern world. In Rebel in the Ranks, Brad Gregory, renowned professor of European history at Notre Dame, recasts this long-accepted portrait. Luther did not intend to start a revolution that would divide the Catholic Church and forever change Western civilization. Yet his actions would profoundly shape our world in ways he could never have imagined.

In these symbolic prophecies the history of twelve or thirteen centuries is written in advance. Compare them with anything else in the entire circle of literature, and you will realize that they stand apart as a thing unique, like a living man in a gallery of statues. The miracle of the existence of these prophecies in the book, and of their fulfillment in the facts of history, is so great that few minds can grasp it.

This is the fourth book in a series of books I have written about the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR). I have drawn from other portions of my other writings to have some continuity with my other writings. However, in this particular book I wanted to have the focus upon NAR apostles and their beliefs in apostolic government. I wanted to make a concentrated writing in which people outside the New Apostolic Reformation could understand NARs emphasis on apostles. I have included some quotes from several famous NAR apostles to validate their doctrinal beliefs. Even though I have named them, it ...

A biography of Albrecht Dürer, one of the most influential artists of the Renaissance and Reformation. In addition to creating hundreds of engravings, woodcuts, drawings, and paintings, he wrote books on geometry, fortification, and human proportions. He explored the meaning of beauty in his art textbook, which was called "Food for Young Artists." The Christian worldview which he brought to the field of art is still relevant today.

The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) has positioned itself as a movement of divine restoration, claiming to reestablish apostles and prophets with unique authority in the Church. However, its leadership has repeatedly failed to uphold the biblical standards required for those in spiritual authority, particularly regarding the moral character and integrity of high-profile leaders. Rather than addressing and removing leaders who fall into sexual immorality, the NAR has developed a culture of excuse-making, covering up scandals, and even justifying blatant moral failures. This stands in direct ...

The church is sadly still confused about what it means to be a man or a woman. While secular society talks about sexuality in terms of liberation, many in the church define manhood and womanhood in terms of reductive roles that rob us of the dignity of personhood, created in the image of God. In her poetic, theologically contemplative style, Aimee Byrd invites you to enter the rich treasure trove of the Song of Songs as its lyrics reveal how our very bodies are visible signs that tell us something about our God.

At the beginning of the 16th century, a religious revolution shattered the outward appearance of conformity among Europe's Roman Catholics...a conformity that had been the basis of Western European unity for over a thousand years. Why did it happen?
