Look beyond charisma.
Popularity, manifestations, and accurate words cannot substitute for biblical character, sound teaching, and pure motives.

FIELD MANUAL 02
Identifying and Navigating the Biblical Tests of Apostolic Ministry
REV 2:2
"You have tested those who say they are apostles and are not, and have found them liars."
Jesus did not condemn the test. He commended it.
DISCERNMENT WITHOUT SENSATIONALISM
A title is a claim.
Fruit is evidence.
Examine the assignment.
Is the calling clear? Who sent them, where were they sent, and what lasting work has their ministry established?
Follow the enduring fruit.
True apostolic ministry equips people, builds teams, establishes foundations, and produces fruit that remains.

You’ll also receive occasional strategic insights from Tim Taylor Training.

I believe this book will be something the Lord will use to establish a yardstick and bring clarity to the Church concerning the calling of an apostle.
