| Greetings!
|
 Thanks for joining us once again for another edition of our e-newsletter. Glad to have you aboard.
Since the end of last month there have been a number of changes. Most of these have to do with servers, programming, and behind the scene things handled so capably and professionally by our web guy - Greg Mann (Mighty Mann Media in Newark, Ohio 740-349-5730). As a result of his expertise we have not missed a beat.
However, one change you will immediately notice has to do with our daily blogs. Our new programming allows you to subscribe to these daily blogs - all of the ones posted in one specific section (Evangelism, Ministry Trips, The Apostle, Daily Bible Insights) or to a combination of any or all four areas I write blogs for. Then, whenever a new blog is posted, you receive it in your email inbox. As well, when you make a comment connected to any single blog you may place a check mark in the box below it and then when someone responds to your comment you will be automatically notified. This way you can go back and have a continuing conversation on the topic should you wish to.
The teasers for the last four postings that once appeared on the left-hand side of the main home page screen - the "Blog box" - have simply been replaced with a Blog symbol. Simply click on that box and it will take you to the most current blogs as posted by date and time (not arranged by the four headings we write under). You can change to just the recent blogs for a specific category by clicking on the appropriate place on the right of that screen at the top. To subscribe and then manage your subscriptions simply go to the bottom of the right hand column on that second screen.
It is really not as complicated as it first appears. Take a minute or two to become familiar with the new look and set-up. Have some fun with it . Then join others in discussing current topics - a few of the most recent ones being: "Christians and Demons"; "Homosexuals and the Mega Churches"; "Two Cults Talking"; "Lakeland - God or Not?", Just a sample as we keep up with what is happening in the Church world today. Keep your finger on the pulse and join us daily.
Once again, we appreciate your involvement in our ministry and what the Lord is doing in and through those who work here with me. I have a terrifically loyal staff who work hard handling many of the day-to-day details so that I can be on the road ministering. They are a serious blessing to me and to all those that we touch in the Name of Jesus. Thanks folks!

Prophetic Insights ... By Ralph Howe
|
IT IS TIME TO GRAB HOLD AND MOVE FORWARD
It is time to grab hold of our true identity and authority and move out
into our communities and our nation. It is time to understand that the
Lord Jesus came to defeat the work of the devil (1 John 3:8) and did
so. That he is a defeated enemy and thus is powerless over the
believer.

Apostolic Annotations
|
"Paul walked into the pagan city of Ephesus and
did 'extraordinary' miracles. It is time for the Church to walk the streets in
the community expecting God to do ordinary miracles. We will walk
in the 'extraordinary' as soon as we learn to walk in faith and
the ordinary first."
- Ralph Howe

Revolution In Leadership
The church's mission, argues
Reggie McNeal, engages every aspect of life. The front lines of the
collision between the kingdom of light and the kingdom of darkness are
homes, schools, offices, health clubs, civic organizations, and
neighborhoods -- wherever God's people find themselves. Equipping the
church for this mission can no longer be the responsibility solely of
professional clergy. A new team of leaders, drawn from the membership
of each congregation, must arise to meet the challenges that ministry
in the third millennium will present.

Causing Trouble World Wide
My favourite Bible verse in the whole Book of Acts is Acts 17:6 and
so let's start there even through we will work our way from Acts 1:1
through to the end of the book. Acts 17:6, in my mind, summarizes the
Book of Acts and gives us a short overview of what it is all about and
what we can look forward to.
Acts 17:6 - second half - states: "These men who have caused trouble all over the world have now come here - "
The literal translation: "These men who have upset the inhabited earth have come here also"
New American: "These men who have UPSET THE WORLD -"
New Living Translation: "These men who have TURNED THE REST OF THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN are now here -"
New International: "These men who HAVE CAUSED TROUBLE all over the world - "

Revolution In Leadership
By: Reggie McNeal
Here is a book that every PASTOR called to be an APOSTLE should read.
Just interested in what God is doing in the whole area of reintroducing
the ministry of the apostle? Then you should choose a different book.
This is only for someone already leading a local church who is being
called to a grace-shift into more of an apostolic ministry.

Yes you are reading it right. You can get $50.00 worth of products from Ralph Howe Ministries for $0.00, nothing, nada, nil, zip, zero.
What is this all about you must be asking yourself? It's simple. Once a month we are going to choose at random a person who has left a *comment on one of Ralph's blogs. It's easy to do, just read the blogs and at the end of each posting is a "comments" link. Just click on it and enter your comment. Make sure to enter your email address correctly as this is how we will contact the winner. For every comment you leave you give yourself another chance of being chosen. For example if there are a total of 100 comments left, and you wrote 50 of them, you'll have a 50 out of 100 chance of winning. Each month a blogger will be chosen at random and will receive a **gift certificate good for $50.00 which can be redeemed for any product in our online web store.
So what are you waiting for: Start BLOGGING!
Winner of May's $50.00 gift certificate:

*Comments must be deemed publishable, ie: no profanity, relevant to the subject, and have "literary value." Ralph Howe Ministries reserves all authority to determine what is publishable and what is not.
** Gift certificate does not have to be redeemed all in one purchase. Use part now and part later and our system will "remember" the balance.
