I've been teaching the Purpose Driven Model for more than 20 years.

In case you're curious, wonder no more; I'm still in. Rick asked me to keep helping with PD and I assured him I would.

Not only that, I also signed the "P.E.A.C.E. Coalition" wall, indicating my confidence in the P.E.A.C.E. PLAN Rick rolled out at last week's conference.

Rick's definition of the P.E.A.C.E Plan is "Ordinary People, empowered by God's Spirit, doing what Jesus did, together, wherever they are."

"You (ordinary people) will receive power (empowered by God's Spirit) when the Holy Spirit comes upon you; and you will be my witnesses (doing what Jesus did...together) both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth (wherever they are). (Acts 1:8)

P = Promote Reconciliation
E = Equip Servant Leaders
A = Assist the Poor
C = Care for the Sick
E = Educate the Next Generation

You can go back and read some of my thoughts about P.E.A.C.E. in last-week's-posts if you'd like. It might help you understand why I'm "in" for the next run of P.E.A.C.E..

Just remember, there is a long stride between imagination and implementation...
