Team Be Transformed

Today we talk about our work in Kenya. How it started, what we did and it's hard end.

In this episode we take a look at the story of David and Goliath. Goliath was a big scary obstacle that caused Saul and the whole Israelite army to freeze with fear.  David came on the scene and saw Goliath not as a big scary obstacle that couldn't be defeated, but as someone who had no business defying the army of God.  David new that God would deliver him into his hands. Sometimes it would be nice if there was a David to come and save us, but the truth is, there is a David in each one of us.  We don't need a David, we are the David.

As we continue on our journey, we have been talking about creating new  momentum in life, taking actions that are beyond our comfort zone. We have been talking about 2026 as the year of breakthrough and success.  And with all these good things there are some challenges and obstacles that can arise. Taking new actions and running into obstacles can create room for fear, doubt and excuses, which can seek to talk us out of the very things that God is calling us into. So we have declared this month, "No Excuses March."

Ephesians 6:13 "Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand." Today we are looking at the mentality necessary to stand in the face of challenges.

There are times on the path of purpose where you wonder if the effort is really going to be worth it.  Where you question if what you are doing is actually going to work. You have trials, things get uncomfortable and the results don't quite turn out like you where hoping. It is in times like these that we must, Keep Going.

Moving into new territory is a beautiful thing. Though it can hold some challenges. Doing new things to create the new results that God has been talking to you about can be quite uncomfortable. And sometimes we need to take multiple steps of faith even while the situations of life don't seem to be changing. It's in times like these that we need to hold on to the vision and goal and keep taking persevering action.

As I was thinking about this new year, the words that stood out were Breakthrough and Success. In this episode, we talk about two areas of breakthrough. The first is breakthrough from things in the past that we might still be carrying on our path of purpose. The second area is breakthrough from perceived limitations. When God calls us into new territory, He also calls us into new realms of freedom.

Sometimes there are seasons in life where the things that God is calling us into challenge our paradigm. It challenges our belief system. And the steps that we need to take to begin can be quite uncomfortable and scary.  While we are building Momentum the smallest obstacles can bring our progress to a screeching halt.  But as we continue to push forward and create momentum it becomes easier to overcome obstacles. In this episode we will look at the process of creating momentum.

In this episode we begin our look at 3 types of leaders found in the old testament.

1. The ones who got put in the position but were not trained for it.  Had the title but no qualifications.
2. The ones who were good and proficient in some areas and deficient in other areas
3. The ones who were prepared for their call

Today we look at king Saul who falls under leader type 1.  And we see what happens when we get promoted with out first building the skills.

In this episode we are taking a look at a few parables that Jesus shared that contain principles of management. Let's get into it.
