Is everyone hearing the same thing?

"What we begin to realise...is that God is saying the same thing to this emerging generation everywhere, in their own languages, He is speaking the same message, about the call to prayer, there is a reformation in the church taking place, a new generation looking for a new expression of Church.

Younger people saying to the older generation we love you, we value you, we need your wisdom, But we don't want your structure, your programs that is killing us. We want relationship over titles, we want to see Jesus in you."

This revelation came out of the "Global Transformation Prayer Summit" that was held in Malaysia in September 2006. For the first time, four global networks that seek godly transformation of the church and society join forces: the International Prayer Council (IPC), the Global Day of Prayer (GDOP), the International Transformation Network (ITN) and the International Fellowship of Transformation Partners (IFTP). A fifth stream, not officially represented, is a group of emerging leaders exploring a possible Connect World liaison.

There is a new generation that is looking for a new expression of the church. We're tired of programs that is killing us. We're tired of hearing you tell us how God touched you - we want God to touch us. We're tired of hearing you telling us your experience of Jesus of yester-years. We want to experience Jesus for ourselves TODAY!
