Dave Larlee, a Dallas cohort graduate, shares his story of how blessing prayer moves into the city. We recorded this testimony at the beginning of the cohorts and we are excited to share it with you all! It’s a modern-day story of how God miraculously multiplies ‘loaves and fish’ today. His comical testimony will remind us again of how God loves our cities and how simple obedience attracts Heaven’s attention.

EP09: For the Sake of the City (Bonus Testimony)

As priests, we’ve been commissioned into our cities to reclaim territory for the Kingdom. These prayer walking practitioners will tell you their stories of how they’ve done this in their local neighborhood and in the nations. They will tell stories about “prayer running,” seeing breakthrough in their communities, and even seeing miraculous things happen in unreached people groups. Join us in this next podcast of Stories from the Toolshed.

EP08: Reclaiming Territory Through Prayer Walking

After their practical stories, we wanted to ask our facilitators some common questions about priestly prayer. We hope these questions and answers help you step deeper into your role as a royal priest.

EP05: Physical Healing (Bonus Episode)

“Jesus You’re Worthy” was birthed in 2022 from a place of heartache and a search for hope.

Our world was rummaging through the rubble of Covid19, I was grieving the loss of my sister-in-law to the horrors of cancer, and I longed for a vision of Jesus that would give me the courage to keep going. I wasn’t alone in this longing. The Church needed a refreshed vision for healing and direction for how to come together as a healing presence in the world. “Jesus you’re worthy to follow, in you we abide….” is a declaration of our trust in God. Then our active response becomes, “You’re worthy of worship, dancing, all color and light - of billions lifting you high.” This paints the picture of our extravagant hope. I first shared this song at Novo Mission’s global conference aligned with the theme “Worthy.” In the midst of our pain we hold hope in God’s promises, reminding ourselves and one another that Jesus is worthy of everything, and He makes us worthy.

Jesus You're Worthy

I wrote At The Table this past summer for our staff conference, and the theme of the year for Novo was on "The Table." A table is a place for gathering. A table is a place for eating. To do homework. Where business happens. A table is a place where friends meet and talk about the day. But ultimately, a table is a place where we gather. And there's unity. We're all on the same plane at a table.

And when I started thinking about the idea of the table that God sets for us, that at this table, our whole self is welcome. Everyone is welcome at this table. We're not to bring just our best self. We're to bring all of ourselves. We're to bring all of our laughter, all of our joy, all of the wonder and all of our sorrow, all of the brokenness, all of our woundedness. We bring it to the table and we say, “God, this is who I am.” And God says, “Lay everything out at this table. You're all welcome at this table.”

At The Table

Can gospel movements take off in a secular, post-Christian climate? We don’t hear a lot of stories of the good news rapidly multiplying in the West. But could it?? Novo staff member Jeremy would answer that with a resounding “Yes!” Because he’s seen it happen—more than once.

Lyrics:

Verse 1
Oh may God be merciful and bless us, may his face smile with favor on us
Oh may God be merciful, his face smile on us

Chorus
May your ways be known throughout the earth,
Your saving power among people everywhere.
May the nations praise you, O God.
Yes, may all the nations praise you.

Verse 2
Let the whole world sing for joy, for you govern the nations with justice
Let the whole world sing, you govern with justice

Bridge
And the land will yield a harvest when the Lord marks us with his blessing
From every corner of the earth the nations will honor you

All the Nations Praise (Psalm 67)

EP01 - Blessing: Intro to "Stories From The Toolshed"

This episode records the stories of four of our cohort graduates from around the country that have made it a practice to hear God’s voice. 

From west coast to east coast, you will hear stories of men and women in their daily lives that have asked God to speak personally to them and for others. Can God speak during a hunting trip? During a life coaching session? What does God think about my identity? Do I see myself the way He sees me? Does God care about marshmallows? If you’re interested, tune in to hear our cohort graduates share practical stories that will encourage and empower you to take more steps forward in hearing God's voice.

We fear “what if nothing happens?” and “should we have faith for healing today?” Tim and Stephen have a conversation around real testimonies of healing in our daily lives, within our families, and they will inspire us to pray with faith spelled R-I-S-K. Join us in this conversation!
