ATTENTION ALL INFLUENCERS LEADERS (Staff, Boards, Cabinets, Guides):  This message is very important.  We always talk about DNA, DNA, DNA, but this podcast will clarify it in a way you will understand.  Listen to Rocky explain it.  Please share this message with other Influencers leaders in your circles.

Bryan interviews Costa Rica Regional Director Henry Gutierrez who talks about how the Spirit is guiding the expansion of A Toda Vela (in English that’s “Full Sail”) Ministries, which is our Latin America branch of Influencers.  He talks about how there seems to be a strong hunger in people all over Latin America to find MORE in their faith experience.  The MORE is abiding in Christ.  He talks about how the one-day Prayer Cottage Retreats have become a winsome way to introduce new people to The Journey.  To learn more about the Prayer Cottage retreats, CLICK HERE.

Bryan interviews Rick Snowden who is leading the charge for the discipleship movement happening in his church and slowly spreading.  Rick talks about how The Journey found its way from Nate Sweeney and the Abiding Network to Bryan, TX and how the ministry has impacted him personally.  It’s always good to hear these stories of how God is moving.

Bryan interviews Danny Davis and Richard Gomez, two Journey brothers and Guides from Tulsa who found The Journey as part of a rehabilitation program called, Wings of Freedom.  They talk about the pathway back from incarceration and recovery and how faith in Christ is essential.  But abiding in Christ took them to a new level of enablement and leadership in their lives.  They also talk about the three  professional men who sacrificed their time and comfort zone to bring The Journey to them.

Bryan and Rocky discuss a key principle in the DNA of The Journey Process of “Starting small, going deep and praying big” to continue helping our leaders understand the spiritual dynamic of Jesus’ way of making disciples.  This is what we The Journey is all about and how this ministry has been built from day one.  A must listen, especially for our leaders and guides.

Bryan interviews Rocky, Tom Seay and Boone Baker about Prayer and its importance in the life of an abider, but also, its importance to our ministry.  They talk about what Prayer is and how their thoughts and perspectives had to be re-wired to understand this intimate walk with Jesus through prayer.  They also talked about Global Prayer opportunities open to all.

Bryan and Rocky discuss the path of a Christian, from Salvation to Sanctification to Glorification and how the Abiding process ties into this.  It is a Narrow Path from the very beginning and throughout, though His grace is abundant and wide.

Bryan interviews Mike Hearne, from Wichita, KS, who not only leads our Region in Kansas, but he also leads our new Prison Ministry team.  Mike talks about the impact The Journey is making in prisons around the country and evolving in other countries as well.  He explains the resources available to Influencers who feel a calling toward bringing The Journey to their local prison or jail and the team’s desire to grow this new branch of Influencers.  And he talks about the clear scriptural mandate to care for inmates.  Listen at your own risk as God may nudge you to help him reach this “forgotten people group.”

Bryan broadcasts from the road in Waterville, Maine as he was visiting the region and joining their weekend Men's Event called MC48... Men of Christ for 48 hours. He talks with Regional Director Andy Collar about his life growing up in Maine, the spiritual climate there and being patient with God's growth and expansion.

Bryan catches up with Sach Oliver, an Influencers leader in Northwest Arkansas, to talk about the Journey Movie update, to recap his leadership talk on Passions, Awesomeness and Needs and to hear the story of how God led him to purchase land north of Arkansas to build a Prayer Retreat Center.  There are many lessons of faith and prayer and leadership in this power-packed podcast.
