A Family Affair

Dreams. Jesus works through hearts and lives that can dream. He created our imaginations to be enlivened by His Holy Spirit causing us to dream, and in this Kingdom, we should dream big dreams because we can never outdream God. “And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, ‘That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams” (Acts 2:17 NKJV). Visions and dreams are the language of the Holy Spirit in the hearts of His children! Lord, help us to dream.

Our dream is to flood the nations with mature sons and daughters of our Father who see the world around them through the eyes of heaven. These followers of Jesus live deeply within Jesus and live to forcefully advance His Kingdom in the world around them. We dream of:

  • cultivating and empowering 10,000 mature sons and daughters who disciple their nation;
  • seeing 1 million people discipled and released into the world;
  • 10 million won to Christ and discovering the Father and their sonship/daughterhood;
  • 1,000 churches planted and flourishing; and,
  • Kingdom reality spilled over into every sector of society changing society, not just individuals and families.

We dream of building a worldwide family in the 20+ nations we serve of spiritual fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters, sons and daughters walking in unison and working side-by-side, seeing this dream come to pass!

Family Camps

This year, we have spent tremendous time and energy hosting two family camps with over 200 from 18 nations. The first was filled with our family from Latin America, Asia, and the U.S. hosted here in Lubbock. It was beautiful, sweet, and powerful as we loved each other radically, profoundly, and well. These sons, brothers, and sisters I have in these lands won my heart and affection. In August, we gathered with our European family from 11 nations in the Pitzal Valley of Austria. The strong aroma of love and sweet fellowship was in the air. As it concluded, family after family came to us in tears, “This was sweet unto the Lord,”  “My heart has been healed and strangely warmed,” “My children will never be the same,” and “Surely God was in this place.” Family—the Kingdom on earth moving as a love-filled force to see the Father and the Son experienced and glorified.

Pray for us. We need your help. This grand family expansion is built upon those who go and those who send. Many of you have gone with us, but all of you are a part of the sending force that catapults us into the nations. Family—the Kingdom alive on earth!
