Dr. Edith Davis continues her discussion on the essential need for unity in the Body of Christ, particularly as the return of Christ draws near. She details the urgency and the divine strategy for fulfilling the Great Commission—the mandate to share the gospel with the entire world. Key Teaching Points: -- The Urgency of the Last Days: The clock is ticking for the return of Christ, who is coming back for a unified church "without any wrinkles, without any spots, without any blemishes." -- The Scope of Christ's Sacrifice: Jesus died for the entire world, and His blood covers the sin of every person. Going to hell is not about sin, but about rejecting the free gift of forgiveness offered through His blood. -- God's Divine Strategy: While the church starts "behind" in evangelism (with over 350,000 people born daily and only about 77,000 born again), God has given a "divine multiplication factor." One can scatter 1,000, and two can scatter not 2,000, but 10,000. -- The Power of the Holy Spirit: The Great Commission is humanly impossible; it must be done through the power of the Lord God, Holy Spirit. It cannot be achieved by any "marketing campaign of man." -- Walking in Love and Forgiveness: Fulfilling the mandate requires walking in the fruits of the Spirit and actively loving one's enemies, just as Christ and the martyr Stephen did, which can lead to powerful conversions (like Saul of Tarsus becoming Paul). -- The Blessing of Unity: The blessing of God, which enriches and adds no sorrow, is evoked from the unity of the Body of Christ. Division is contrary to God's plan—there is no "black church," "white church," or "Hispanic church," only the unified Body of Christ.

What happens when your disciple-making actually works?In this episode, Pete and Peyton dive deep into Discipology—Peyton's newest project and framework for mobilizing every believer. Forget the buzzwords about “multiplication.” This is about what Jesus actually did: sending ordinary people two by two to change the world.Peyton unpacks the three rhythms of disciple-making—Teaching, Time, and Tactics—and explains why most churches stop short of the third. Then he explores what happens when those rhythms start producing fruit and your systems can't keep up. From the chaos of growth in Acts 6 to a modern-day electrician who accidentally started a movement, this one's full of real stories, field-tested wisdom, and classic Peyton energy.If you've ever wondered what comes after the multiplication movement—or how to survive the disruption that comes when disciples start multiplying—this episode is for you.Resources and Links Mentioned in this Episode:Reliant Mission: reliant.org/cppNewBreed TrainingThanks for listening to the church planter podcast.

Elementary math - addition and multiplication

Acts 6:1-7In those days when the number of disciples was increasing, the Hellenistic Jews among them complained against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food. So the Twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, “It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables. Brothers and sisters, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word.”This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit; also Philip, Procorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism. They presented these men to the apostles, who prayed and laid their hands on them. So the word of God spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly, and a large number of priests became obedient to the faith. 

The Tower of Babel story reveals humanity's tendency to misuse God's gifts for selfish purposes. The people possessed four powerful tools for multiplication: language, innovation, unity, and the ability to receive correction. Instead of using these tools to fulfill God's command to fill the earth, they gathered together to make a name for themselves. God's intervention wasn't punishment but mercy, preventing them from using their power for ultimate destruction. At Pentecost, God began reversing Babel's confusion, showing His plan to unite all nations under Christ's lordship. We face the same choice today: will we use our God-given tools for His glory or our own?

"The proof of desire is in pursuit." – Pastor Jerry McCamey The Great Commission: Is the Church Getting the Job Done? Pastor Jerry McCamey issues a passionate challenge to the church, asserting that "something is not working." Using startling statistics on global births versus daily conversions, he confronts the "deceptiveness of the gradual" that has shifted the focus from the Great Commission to merely "playing church." He calls believers to stop thinking in terms of addition and embrace the "Divine Equation" for multiplication, reminding us that with God, "size is not everything." This message is a powerful, self-examining call to action for every Christian to embrace the expectancy of God's power in soul-winning. +++++++ You can find our service times on our website: https://www.anctally.com/ You can find sermon highlights on Twitter here: https://x.com/allnationstally

Series: Gospel MathScripture: Acts 5:1-16Speaker: Pastor Ben MillerDate: 10.19.2025

Today we're talking about the value of intentional relationships—a key part of our discipleship process. Every group that launches doesn't just meet to study Scripture; they build real relationships by spending time together outside the sessions. In this episode, we'll break down how to do that in simple, natural ways that lead to genuine connection.Ordinary Movement is a discipleship platform that equips men and women to be disciples who make disciples. Our focus is on supporting small groups led by ordinary/everyday Christians. We have specialized discipleship tracks that center around Intimacy with Jesus, Intentional Relationships, and Multiplication. Groups are designed for individuals to easily engage in leading groups.Ready to be a disciple who makes disciples?If so, come and join us!Visit ordinarymovement.com to learn more!#discipleship #disciplemaking #disciple

Send us a textIn this conversation, the hosts explore the concept of 'healthy dissatisfaction' as a vital principle for spiritual growth and ministry effectiveness. They discuss how this dissatisfaction is not merely about personal unhappiness but serves as a catalyst for significant breakthroughs in ministry. The dialogue emphasizes the importance of viewing growth from a divine perspective, taking risks, and maintaining a healthy dissatisfaction through prayer and collaboration. Practical steps for leaders are also provided to cultivate this mindset, ultimately aiming for exponential growth in reaching the unreached.TakeawaysHealthy dissatisfaction is a catalyst for ministry movements.It's about seeing the gap between current reality and divine goals.Dissatisfaction should align with God's promises, not personal ambition.The shepherd's focus on the missing sheep illustrates divine priorities.Healthy dissatisfaction connects to the Great Commission.Dissatisfaction drives leaders to take risks for greater impact.The rabbit strategy emphasizes rapid, decentralized multiplication.Prayer is essential to keep dissatisfaction healthy and aligned with God.Faithfulness in small opportunities is crucial for growth.Collaboration with others enhances the impact of healthy dissatisfaction.

What does it look like when God a movement of Jesus followers continues for years, decades, a generation? Exponential Kingdom Growth. The world looks different because a generation pressed in to discipleship, marriages are whole and healthy, workplaces are changed for Christ, the church is vibrant and powerful, and faith is what marks a people. Do you want to see this and long for this in this broken world? Listen and be moved by the Lord into discipleship and disciple-making.

Ephesians 4:11-121. Pastors are SHEPHERDS, not SAVIORS2. Jesus gives EVERY Christian a ministry assignment for His church3. Why many churches fail to MULTIPLY leaders:     -Current leaders won't let go     -New leaders won't step up4. Consumer Christians view the church as a SERVICE PROVIDER5. Mature Christians view the church as a place to PROVIDE SERVICE6. Multiplying Leaders will lead to a Multiplication of Impact

n this powerful message on Christ-compelled multiplication, we're challenged to embrace our role as disciples who make disciples. The key scripture comes from Matthew 9:35-38 and Matthew 10:1-7, where Jesus models compassion, prayer, and empowerment. We're reminded that multiplication was God's original design, seen in Genesis 1:22-28 with the command to 'be fruitful and multiply.' This isn't just about numbers, but about transforming lives through the power of Christ. The message draws an interesting parallel between physical and spiritual multiplication, comparing disciples to apple seeds that have the potential to grow into orchards. As we reflect on our own faith journey, we're challenged to ask: Who are we walking with? Are we holding tightly to our faith or actively passing it on? This call to multiplication isn't just for a select few – it's for all of us who follow Christ. Let's open our eyes to see the harvest around us, allow Christ's love to compel us, and step out in the authority He's given us to make disciples who make disciples.

Episode Description: Max and Molly suspect that Mr. Avogadro's student book club may be a front for Mole recruitment. Using Math to calculate reading goals, averages, and even a new “Suspicion Number” system inspired by mathematician Paul Erdős, they try to narrow down suspects. But when they overhear Mr. A and Mr. Z talking about “burrows” and “alternate history,” the mystery deepens. Math Concepts: Division with remainders; Multiplication to find daily/weekly totals;; Application of averages;Fractions/percentages; Graph theory-inspired reasoningHistory/Geography Concepts:  Misconceptions about animals (bats and moles' eyesight/echolocation); Introduction to mathematician Paul Erdős and the Erdős Number System; Literature reference: A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle

In this episode of The Church Planting Podcast, Greg Nettle sits down with Jay Pathak, National Director of Vineyard USA and co-author of The Art of Neighboring. Jay shares his unexpected journey into church planting, from studying philosophy at Ohio State to planting Mile High Vineyard in Denver after 9/11. Key themes include: The power of a clear calling—and why clarity often means higher cost. The challenges of starting with little money, odd jobs, and slow growth. Why multiplying leaders is the foundation for multiplying churches. Lessons from The E-Myth on building for replication. Evangelism as the heartbeat of church planting, no matter the model or denomination. Jay encourages listeners to pray for God's heart for the marginalized and to stay focused on the essentials: leading people to Christ, making disciples, and training leaders.

The miracles of Jesus are some of the most powerful and profound moments in his earthly ministry. But these weren't simple party tricks: they were an announcement that the Kingdom of God has arrived. Each one is a sign - a mini-version of something ultimate - which revealed the wonder of who Jesus is and all that he has done, is doing, and will do for all of creation. This week, Adrian continues the series by exploring the story of Jesus feeding more than 5000 people, and tying it into the Oasis 'vision' for 2025 of Multiplication.

Don't just lead a group and then do a hard stop! Stay connected, develop more intentional relationships, do mission together, and keep the first things first. Launch an OC Group. They are independently run by past group participants or leaders and exist to keep the disciple-making movement an ongoing reality. How frequently groups meet are up to each facilitator. Meet monthly, bi-weekly, or whatever works best for each group. Groups are easy to execute, easy to join, and highly reproducible. Because each meeting stands alone, if you miss a meet-up, you won't be behind. Rotating facilitators is encouraged to keep these groups manageable and ongoing.

Multiplication #RTTBROS #NightlightEpisode 2000I keep thinking about the boy with the five loaves and two fish.He didn't have much. Just a kid's lunch. But he offered what he had to Jesus, and Jesus multiplied it to feed thousands.That's what RTTBROS has been for Norman and me: • We're not theologians, just brothers who love God's Word • We don't have a big production team, just two guys and their phones • We're not famous preachers, just a custodian and counselor who serveBut we offered what we had, and God multiplied it.2000 episodes later, we're in awe of what God can do with a small offering surrendered to Him.We have over a quarter of a million views on one video platformWe have one video that has over 30,000 views and another over 20,000 viewsWe have over 50,000 likes on one platform.On YouTube which is one of our weaker performing channels in the last 28 days we have nearly 4,000 views on our short form videos.

In this episode, I'll walk you through five Scripture-inspired prayers you can use daily or in moments when you need direction, encouragement, or fresh vision. These prayers focus on: Habits and routines that draw us closer to God and closer to success in business. Multiplication of resources, relationships, and Kingdom impact.

In light of recent events, we thought it was important as an organization to share our thoughts. In this episode we will reflect on Charlie Kirk, and some comments made by Erika Kirk at his funeral.

God is shifting and preparing, shaking and rearranging so many things - but it's all a part of His plan of deliverance for us - and this will affect every nation around the world. He has taken many of us into the wilderness and to the caves to quietly teach us and show us His ways, and now it's time for us to come out of the caves so we can bring forth what God has placed within us! The separation we are witnessing is necessary so God can bring forth increase and multiplication. What we are experiencing is a part of the Great Awakening. Change is coming. Amen!

In this special episode of The Responsive Lab, John and Becky, co-founders of We Are For Good, talk movement-building from the stage at the Responsive Nonprofit Summit 2025. John and Becky share their deeply practical framework for moving from donor acquisition to donor multiplication by centering believers, fueling joy, and letting go of control. Through stories from Komen, charity:water, the Michael J. Fox Foundation, and their own early experiences in healthcare philanthropy, they make the case that responsive fundraising isn't just a strategy, it's a belief system. You'll walk away with: The 8 steps to multiply your mission through community A shift from passive donors to active builders Practical ways to foster shared ownership and belonging A reminder that joy is a powerful multiplier

Multiplication is a buzzword in many missions and church circles regarding the expansion of the kingdom of God. Let's say you start with one church. At some point, the church plants a second church. Later, another church is planted, and you have three. When a fourth church is planted, there are four. That's addition.Now, think of it another way. Let's say you start with one church. And at some point, that church multiplies itself and becomes two churches. Later, those two churches each multiply themselves, and there are four. And after that, the four churches multiply and become eight.There isn't a huge difference between four and eight, but as you go further down the chain, the difference between addition and multiplication becomes exponentially larger.

Contact the radio station or leave a review on your favorite app. We want to hear from you! ⸻ Multiplication Thinking Part 1: The Power of the Questions We Ask (Vision & Theology) Theme: Questions reveal what we believe about God's mission, our role, and the future. ** 1. Why Questions Matter **  Questions expose vision (or the lack of it) Show how “addition” questions limit scope vs. “multiplication” questions which expand possibilities.  Example: “How many people can I gather?” (Level 2 thinking) vs. “How many disciple-makers can I release?” (Level 4-5 thinking). .The Five Levels of Church Mutiplication 1.subtraction 2. Plateau 3.addition 4. Reproducing 5. Multiplication . *** 2. The Five Levels of Leadership (from Hero Maker) ***  • Level 1: I count (thinking addition, personal results).  • Level 2: I count what I do (improving programs).  • Level 3: I count what we do together (team success).  • Level 4: I count leaders I raise up (reproduction).  • Level 5: I count leaders who multiply leaders (movement/multiplication).  • Use examples of how each level asks progressively bigger questions. *** 3. Biblical and Theological Foundation *** .  • Jesus modeled multiplication: He invested in 12 → sent 72 → great commission to all.  • Paul's instruction to Timothy: “Entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others” (2 Tim. 2:2).  • The kingdom grows like a seed — designed for multiplication, not maintenance (parable of the mustard seed, yeast in the dough). *** 4. Why Maintenance Mindset is Dangerous ***  • It keeps leaders in survival mode (protecting what is).  • It makes ministries inward-focused rather than kingdom-focused.  • Ultimately, it limits generational impact. ***  5. Challenge: ***  • What questions are you currently asking in your ministry?  • Are they addition questions or multiplication questions?  • (Good interactive moment: invite participants to write down their top 2 questions they ask about ministry and assess what “level” they reflect.) ⸻ **(00:00) END PART 1** **(27:00 – 5:00) BEGIN PART 2* Part 2: Asking Multiplication Questions  Leaders at every level can shift from addition to multiplication by the questions they ask. *** 1. Shifting the Question at Every Level of Leadership*** .  • Sunday school teacher: Instead of “How many kids will show up?” ask “How many kids can I equip to share their faith?”  • Deacon/volunteer leader: Instead of “How do I fill this need?” ask “Who can I invite and empower to step into leadership?”  • Pastor: Instead of “How do we grow this church?” ask “How do we plant churches and send leaders?”  • Church planter: Instead of “How do I build this church strong?” ask “How do I build this to multiply from the start?” *** 2. Practical Multiplication Questions to Introduce***  • Who am I discipling right now?  • Who could they disciple next?  • What leaders am I raising up?  • Who in my ministry could replace me if I left tomorrow?  • What's stopping me from giving more away? *** 3. Tools & Practices to Reinforce Multiplication Thinking***  • Permission-giving: Start saying “You can do this” more often.  • Scorecards: Redefine success — not just how many are attending, but how many are multiplying.  • Apprenticing model: Always have someone learning beside you. *** 4. Case Studies / Stories***  • Share short stories of multiplication in action (a teacher who trained kids to lead, a church that planted another church, a small group that reproduced).  • Highlight that multiplication is possible at every level, not just at the top. *** 5. Closing Challenge & Vision Casting***  • Ask participants: “If every leader here multiplied themselves once in the next 2 years, what would happen in our church and community?”  • Cast vision for generational leadership: thinking in terms of “spiritual grandchildren.”  • Call them to choose one multiplication question they'll start asking this week. *** 6. Sample Multiplication vs. Maintenance Questions*** Sunday School Teachers  • Maintenance: How many kids will show up this week?  • Multiplication: Which kids can I disciple so they can share their faith with others?  • Multiplication: Who could I apprentice as a future teacher? ⸻ Deacons  • Maintenance: How do we meet the needs of our members better?  • Multiplication: Who else can we raise up to serve so more people are empowered?  • Multiplication: How do we multiply servant leaders, not just serve needs? ⸻ Sound Booth / Tech Team  • Maintenance: How do I make sure the sound and slides run smoothly this Sunday?  • Multiplication: Who can I train so they can run sound in the future?  • Multiplication: How do we multiply tech leaders so new services, campuses, or ministries can launch equipped? ⸻ Worship Leaders  • Maintenance: How do we sound better this Sunday?  • Multiplication: Who in the band or congregation can I mentor to lead worship in the future?  • Multiplication: How do we multiply worship leaders so that every group, gathering, or church plant has someone to lead? ⸻ Pastors  • Maintenance: How do we grow this church bigger?  • Multiplication: How do we raise up pastors and church planters from within?  • Multiplication: Who are my “Timothys” that I'm intentionally training to multiply leaders? ⸻ Church Planters  • Maintenance: How do I make this church strong and healthy?  • Multiplication: How do I plant in such a way that this church will plant another church within 3 years?  • Multiplication: How do I build a culture of sending from the very beginning? ⸻ General “Every Leader” Questions  • Maintenance: How do I succeed in my role?  • Multiplication: Who am I apprenticing to take my place?  • Multiplication: Who are my spiritual grandchildren — the people being discipled by those I discipled? ⸻ ***  7. Progression of Questions: From Addition to Multiplication*** Level 1: I Count (self-focused)  • How am I doing?  • Did I do a good job teaching / leading / serving?  • Did people like what I did today? (Example: A sound booth worker asks, “Did I get the slides right?”) ⸻ Level 2: I Count What I Do (program-focused)  • How many people showed up to my class, service, or ministry?  • How can I make this better for those who attend?  • Did the event/service/program run smoothly? (Example: A Sunday school teacher asks, “How many kids are in my class this week?”) ⸻ Level 3: I Count What We Do Together (team-focused)  • How is our team doing?  • How can we grow this ministry bigger or better together?  • How can we serve more people as a team? (Example: A deacon asks, “How can our deacon team meet more needs this year?”) ⸻ Level 4: I Count Leaders I Raise Up (reproduction-focused)  • Who am I apprenticing right now?  • Who could I trust to lead if I wasn't here?  • How can I release more people into ministry and leadership? (Example: A worship leader asks, “Who in the band can I mentor to lead a worship set?”) ⸻ Level 5: I Count Leaders Who Multiply Leaders (movement-focused)  • Who are my spiritual grandchildren — the leaders raised up by the leaders I've discipled?  • How do we create a culture where leaders naturally multiply leaders?  • How can we measure success by kingdom expansion, not just local growth? (Example: A pastor asks, “Who are the church planters being trained by the leaders I've already raised up?”) ⸻ ✅ Progression Summary (for a slide or handout):  • Level 1–2 questions: focus on me and my ministry.  • Level 3 questions: focus on our ministry team.  • Level 4 questions: focus on leaders I raise.  • Level 5 questions: focus on leaders who raise leaders.   **(1:00)**  What kinds of questions are you asking? Do your answers move you toward reproduction and multiplication or do they keep you stuck in the status quo?

"Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours." - 1 Chronicles 29:11If God owns it all, what does that mean for the way we manage money? Brian Holtz is here to unpack the Five Pillars of Financial Discipleship—principles that, when embraced by families, bring freedom and joy to their finances.Brian Holtz is the CEO of Compass Financial Ministry and the author of Financial Discipleship for Families: Intentionally Raising Faithful Children.More Than Money ManagementWhen it comes to managing money as followers of Christ, the Bible calls us to more than financial freedom or peace of mind. It calls us to financial discipleship—a life of stewardship, surrender, and multiplication for God's Kingdom. Here are five key pillars that shape this journey.Pillar One: OwnershipEverything begins with recognizing who truly owns it all. Scripture reminds us in Psalm 24:1, Haggai 2:8, and 1 Chronicles 29:11 that God is the Creator and ultimate Owner of everything. Our role is not ownership but stewardship. This mindset shift—from “mine” to “His”—brings both relief and challenge. It's freeing to know the responsibility doesn't all rest on us, but humbling to realize our lives and resources are not ultimately ours to control.Pillar Two: SurrenderAcknowledging God's ownership requires surrender. Luke 14:33 makes this clear: discipleship means yielding everything back to God, not just intellectually but in our hearts. This surrender extends beyond giving—it includes how we spend, save, and plan. Trusting God's plan over our own is an act of daily obedience.Pillar Three: ChoiceIn Matthew 6:24, Jesus tells us we cannot serve both God and money. Every financial decision—whether saving, giving, or spending—reveals who we serve. Choosing God requires aligning daily habits with His Word, even when it feels counterintuitive. As Isaiah reminds us, God's ways are higher and better than ours.Pillar Four: MultiplicationDiscipleship is never meant to stop with us. In the Parable of the Talents, Jesus calls us to multiply what He has entrusted to us. This means sharing what we've learned and inviting others into the journey. Financial discipleship involves helping others apply biblical wisdom so that God's Kingdom continues to grow.Pillar Five: Eternal FocusFinally, discipleship means setting our eyes on eternity. Jesus said in Matthew 6:19–21 to store up treasures in heaven, not on earth. But these treasures aren't material—they're about our relationship with Christ. Living with an eternal focus keeps us from being distracted by temporary wealth and anchors our hope in Him alone.How Financial Discipleship DiffersIt's easy to confuse financial discipleship with financial stewardship or freedom. Stewardship may stop at wise resource management, but discipleship goes further—it's about helping others learn, apply, and multiply biblical truth for God's glory. True discipleship always leads to transformation, both personally and in community.Compass Financial Ministry exists to equip believers to live this way. Through resources, training, and community, they help people break free from the love of money and serve God more fully. Financial discipleship is really about helping others learn, apply, and multiply everything for God's glory, rather than for our own. To learn more, visit CompassFinancialMinistry.org.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm about to receive money from a relative's trust and want to place it in a high-yield money market account.

Episode Description: When a flyer leads Max and Molly to new POG activity, Aunt M sends them to the Great Wall of China in 1601. There, they discover that what locals think is a terrifying “monster” is actually a POG transmission antenna. With the Commander eager to take credit, Max and Molly must rescue a strange printout that deepens the koan mystery. Math Concepts:  Time calculations (converting minutes → seconds, hours → minutes → seconds); Speed, distance, and pace (Molly's run: 1.1 miles in 9:45 → pace calculations); Order of Operations (PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction); Prime vs composite numbers (e.g., 9 as the first odd composite number); Ratios and unit conversions (seconds to minutes, minutes to hours)History/Geography Concepts:  Geography: The Jiumenkou section of the Great Wall—unique as a bridge with nine arches spanning the Jiujiang River; History: Ming Dynasty China, 1601 CE; Cultural element: How myths and misunderstandings can grow around technology (locals mistaking a satellite dish for a monster); Philosophy: Koans (riddles used in Zen Buddhism to provoke deeper thought)

There's a story in the Bible most people overlook… but it's actually a blueprint for multiplying money. In just a few verses, Jesus shows us that making money is a game—one with rules, risks, and rewards. Some play to win. Others bury their chance and lose it all. But the ones who get it? They unlock an unfair advantage that changes everything. Once I saw it—I couldn't unsee it. Let's unpack it together.
