Sometimes we put so much energy into managing how other people perceive us that we miss out on what God wants to do in the moment.

As leaders it’s important to guard our hearts from fear, so that are able to move in faith.

Partnership is about relationships, not paperwork.

Maybe you've recently felt the call to ministry, or maybe you're a seasoned leader. Either way, we believe that you weren't called to lead alone. What makes DOVE unique is our foundation of discipleship at every level of leadership. Everyone has someone they can lean on for guidance.

If you sense God stirring your heart to explore partnership with DOVE, you're in the right place.

Becoming a DOVE partner church is not a quick online form; it's a relational, prayerful journey of getting to know one another and confirming God's leading together.

You are not a victim of your circumstances. You are a victor in Christ. You are a temple of the Holy Spirit, a living stone being built into a spiritual house. You have the honor and privilege of hosting the God of the universe. We know living this out is easier said than done. That is why we developed a training resource for believers of all walks of life. (See the end of the post!)

The question is, how are you hosting Him? Is your prayer life generating heat? Is your worship causing an updraft? It’s time to stop being a thermometer. It’s time to become a thermostat, intentionally creating spiritual updrafts through prayer, praise, and a tenacious faith that takes God at His Word.

I have experienced two moves of God in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, in my lifetime. Both of them were led by young people. The first was an overflow from the Jesus movement in the late 1960s, the 1970s, and the early 1980s. Youth-led Bible studies sprang up all over our county. Then in the late 1990s through the early 2000s, TBS (Tuesday Night Bible Study) started in our county. Over one thousand youth and young adults met every Tuesday night, led by young men and women who were sold out to the Lord. Multiplied thousands of lives were changed by the Lord during this season of time.

I noticed an amazing difference in these two revival eras. The young leaders of the first move of God had very few spiritual fathers and mothers. However, during the second, there were many more spiritual fathers and mothers involved. I believe the second move of God had a greater impact due to the spiritual fathers and mothers who were willing to serve these young leaders. At the same time, there was a sense of humility among the young leaders. They were open and receptive to what the older generation had to offer. The result is thousands and thousands of believers who are faithfully serving in churches, ministries, and businesses all over our region, along with a whole host of missionaries who have been sent to the nations.

Regardless of the generation you find yourself in, we are called to honor and encourage and learn from each other: the young, the old and those in-between—together!
