Prophetic-Apostolic (PrA) Gift Cluster
Pioneering Examiners
The Apostolic Prophet
(PrA) Gift Cluster blends the primary
prophetic gifted role with a secondary emphasis on apostolic roles.
This gift mix produces “Pioneering Examiners” who may believe they are
called to create new ways to improve the success rate of ministries and new
church starts and improve the networking between missional ministries in order
to foster peer-to-peer learning of best ministry practices.
To prepare for this type of ministry you will need to identify the
spiritual and cultural issues both inside and outside the congregation or
church. You may need to appraise
current spiritual & cultural realities so that new ministry methods and new
congregations can be properly started.
You may also need to alert missional teams and churches regarding your
assessment by using new delivery methods that would gain their understanding and
acceptance. The intense desire and
ability you have to analyze and critique the situation in which you find
yourself may need to be tempered in order to both maintain a godly attitude
yourself and to gain a hearing of those who can affect change. "Doing
things better while doing things new" becomes a theme that drives much of this
person's orientation.
