What is the prophetic? How do we hear God's voice on behalf of other people in our lives? How do we practice this in humility? Katia Adams, who founded and pastors The Table Boston with her husband Julian, helps demystify the prophetic, and gives us 3 practical ways we can all grow, following Pauls's charge in I Corinthians 14:1 - "Pursue love, but strive eagerly for the spiritual gifts, above all that you may prophesy." Don't miss this inspiring episode.

One of the world's leading missiologists, Alan Hirsch, comes to us from Australia, explaining how we should question titles but embrace giftings in the church. Learn about the gifting that Christ has given his church, outlined in Eph 4, and a test we can take to help us understand the roles of: apostle, prophet, evangelist, shepherd, teacher. 

Kathryn and Alan discuss how these giftings have a scope way beyond church and ministry staff positions. They also talk about how certain leadership gifts have been elevated in this season of the Western Church, and how we need to elevate, and refuse to quench, all of the gifts... in order to see the future Church flourish.

As Christian leaders, we often feel dissatisfied with the status quo or overwhelmed by rapid cultural shifts. We know something needs to change, but the fear of uncertainty, loss, or pain leaves us clinging to ineffective systems and practices. Drawing from Jesus' life and ministry, leadership catalyst and coach Rich Robinson of Scotland outlines a four-phase framework to navigate adaptive challenges and help you dream again, unlocking your kingdom potential.

In this episode, Kathryn Maack and David Legge talk about  7 myths around the concept of innovation. You can ask yourself if you have believed any of these myths for yourself, and how they might even get in the way of having Kingdom imagination in your context. If you want to start a conversation around it, we'd love to hear from you over in our Facebook Group, Dwellings Community.
