Part 1 named the system being built around us. Part 2 names what the Ekklesia is being called to in the middle of it.

Host Rolland Wright anchors the teaching in Hebrews 10 — the early believers joyfully accepted the plundering of their possessions because their inheritance was elsewhere. From there, the conversation moves through CERN and the Large Hadron Collider, the spiritual character of what's being built underground in Switzerland, and the question that decides everything: what mindset survives when the system around you turns?

The center of the teaching is Acts 2:42–47. Rolland walks the text line by line and corrects a misread that has cost the body of Messiah dearly: this was not communism. It was the Ruach ha-Kodesh prompting a people who had been depraved the day before. The Acts 2 economy is not a political system. It is a Spirit-filled people. Ownership to managership. Acquisition to distribution. Hoarding to giving.

He closes with Yeshua's question to Peter, now put to every listener: who do you say He is, and are we who He says we are?

Ideas worth wrestling with, testing against Scripture, and bringing before God in prayer.

You'll hear:

• Picking up Part 1: persecution, the diaspora, and the seizing of property
• Hebrews 10:32–39 — joyfully accepting the plundering of possessions
• CERN, the Large Hadron Collider, and what's happening underground in Switzerland
• The 2017 CERN opening ceremony and what Rolland saw in it
• Elon Musk's "demonic technology" quote in context
• The Hebrews 10 mindset as a discipline, not a feeling
• Why capitalism is not God's system — even where it is better than the options
• Why socialism is not God's system either
• Ownership to managership. Acquisition to distribution. Hoarding to giving.
• Acts 2:42–47 — the text walked through line by line
• Why Acts 2 was not communism, but the Ruach moving on a depraved people
• 1 John 2:15–17 — do not love the world or the things in the world
• Spiritual family vs. biological family
• The apostles as martyrs to a man, save John and the one who denied
• The entrepreneur's built-in ministry — to customers, vendors, employees
• Closing question: who do you say He is, and are we who He says we are?

Coming Up Next:

Rolland sits down with another guest living the Ekklesia lifestyle.

Part 1 asked what Ekklesia is. Part 2 asks what Ekklesia does. Dr. Tom Schlueter and Rolland Wright open a conversation on the authority Yeshua gave His followers — what it looks like when believers move from gathering to governing in prayer, what tribunals are and aren't, and how the Ruach moves through ordinary people who decide to act on what Scripture actually says.

Part 1 of this conversation laid the foundation: what Ekklesia means, why Yeshua used the word, and how the early Ekklesia modeled a kind of intercession the modern body has largely forgotten.

Part 2 picks up the question most listeners were left holding: if Ekklesia is what Dr. Schlueter and Rolland described, what does it actually do?

In this episode, the conversation moves into authority, strategy, and the governance dimension of Ekklesia. Dr. Schlueter walks through what he understands as the legislative nature of the assembly Yeshua said He would build, the role of tribunals as gatherings of intercessors aligned with the heart of God, and how he believes the Ruach is calling believers to engage spiritual principalities through prayer, decree, and covenant relationship.

He and Rolland talk through what it has looked like to apply these convictions in cities and states, the kinds of issues believers have brought before God in this way, and the patterns Dr. Schlueter has observed over decades of prayer ministry. They also discuss the responsibility that comes with claiming authority — the call to align with Scripture, to test every impression, and to walk in covenant relationship rather than in isolation.

This is a meaty conversation that goes places the modern church doesn't always go. Dr. Schlueter's framework will resonate with some listeners and challenge others. Listeners are invited to engage as Rolland has framed it from the beginning of this series — with ideas worth wrestling with, testing against Scripture, and bringing before God in prayer.

Coming Next Tuesday

Rolland returns with the next solo teaching in the Ekklesia Series.

At four in the morning, after two weeks of a cough that kept doubling him over, Rolland heard the Ruach ha-Kodesh say four words: Call forth the name. What happened next is a testimony — and the practical theology behind it might be the most important shift the modern church has missed.

Part 1 set the foundation: deliverance is the beginning, not the end. Part 2 puts the boots on.

Host Rolland Wright opens with the testimony he hinted at in Part 1 — a late-night encounter with a respiratory infirmity he believes was a spiritual attack disguised as COVID-era pneumonia. He shares exactly what the Ruach ha-Kodesh told him to do, what he did, and what happened. He went to the ER the next morning not because he was still sick, but to confirm what he already knew. The lungs were clear.

From that testimony, Rolland teaches the practical theology behind the moment: that Yeshua gave His followers real authority — authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, authority over every power of the enemy, authority to lay hands on the sick and see them recover. He walks through Luke 10:19, Mark 16:17–18, and Acts 1:8, and asks the question most churches are afraid to ask: why aren't we doing the things Yeshua said we would do?

He also opens a teaching he says he'll return to in a future book — the difference between servant and slave in Paul's writings, and why the Greek word doulos means something stronger than English Bibles often carry. To be a bondslave of Yeshua is not lesser language. It's purchase language. Paid in blood.

Rolland closes with a vision of Ekklesia that goes beyond the pew. Believers who understand they belong to Yeshua — and act like it — in mayors' offices, on school boards, in nursing rooms, in business, in everyday life. The signs are supposed to follow.

This is the second half of a teaching pair worth listening to back-to-back. Part 1 built the framework. Part 2 lives in it.

You'll hear:

• The full COVID/pneumonia testimony — what the Ruach said, what Rolland did, and the ER confirmation the next morning
• More healings since: gout, a generational curse, a marriage shift
• Luke 10:19 — authority to trample on serpents, scorpions, and every power of the enemy
• Mark 16:17–18 — the signs that follow those who believe
• Acts 1:8 — power, not just witness
• Why the 70 were sent out to do more than evangelize
• The convergence of attacks during the COVID years — and why it wasn't just one thing
• Doulos in Paul's writings, and why "bondservant" softens what Scripture actually said
• Romans 6 — slaves of darkness, then slaves of righteousness
• A vision of Ekklesia in business, government, schools, and everyday life
• Ephesians 6 and the sword of the Spirit
• A preview of upcoming guests Michael W. Smith (Hardcore Christianity) and Chet Swearingen

Scripture referenced: Luke 10:19, Mark 16:17–18, Acts 1:8, Romans 6, Ephesians 6, 1 Peter 5:8

Coming Next Thursday

Rolland sits down with another guest living the Ekklesia lifestyle.

What if prayer was never meant to be passive? In this conversation, Dr. Tom Schlueter walks through a vision of Ekklesia where the prayers of God's people become one of the most active forces on earth — and where the book of Acts is exactly what its name says: the acts of the Holy Spirit, still moving through believers today.

In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, host Rolland Wright sits down with Dr. Tom Schlueter of the Texas Apostolic Prayer Network for a wide-ranging discussion on the meaning of Ekklesia and the place of prayer in the life of the believer.

Dr. Schlueter shares his own journey — from a Lutheran heritage to a deeper search into what Yeshua actually meant when He used the word Ekklesia in Matthew 16. The conversation moves through the priesthood of all believers, the corporate identity of God's people, and a central conviction that sits at the heart of Rolland's own teaching: that the book of Acts is the acts of the Ruach ha-Kodesh moving through ordinary people, and that the same Spirit is still at work.

Much of this episode is about prayer — and specifically the shift from passive, routine prayer to prayer that is intentional, expectant, and aligned with the heart of God. Dr. Schlueter and Rolland discuss how communal and corporate prayer can shape communities, and how the early Ekklesia modeled a kind of intercession that the modern body has largely forgotten.

This is a meaty, far-reaching conversation that touches on spiritual authority, cultural influence, and how networks of intercessors are being built today. Listeners will encounter ideas worth wrestling with, testing against Scripture, and bringing before God in prayer. Part 2 continues the conversation.

This episode also connects directly to a prayer initiative First Place Ministries is planning for the fall. To learn more, register, or get involved, visit firstplaceministries.com.

Coming SoonPart 2 of the conversation with Dr. Tom Schlueter.

Most of us were taught that deliverance is a finish line. The moment the chains come off. The day the addiction breaks. The night the prayer finally goes through. But Scripture treats it as a starting line — and most of us have been trying to live on the wrong side of that distinction for years.

This episode opens a new chapter of teaching on ReGenesis — the Ekklesia Series — and host Rolland Wright begins it exactly where so many of us get stuck: the morning after the breakthrough.

Deliverance is real. Salvation is real. The chains coming off is real. But the day after, the old wounds still whisper. The old patterns still pull. The enemy still lies. And many believers spend years confused about why they don't feel as free as they were told they would.

Rolland walks through the biblical framework for living in ongoing freedom — being born of water and Spirit, walking in the authority Yeshua gave His followers, forgiving from the heart as Matthew 6 instructs, and refusing the lie that deliverance is a one-time event with no follow-through.

He grounds it in Scripture and in his own life. The Welsh revivalist Evan Roberts. The story of Joseph as a portrait of forgiveness. A personal account of overcoming pneumonia through prayer and spiritual warfare. And a teaser for what's coming — a conversation with Michael W. Smith (not the singer, the deliverance counselor) whose ministry will challenge how most believers think about spiritual oppression.

If you've ever wondered why freedom keeps slipping or why the old wounds keep coming back, this episode is for you.

You'll hear:

• What extrapolation means — and how to extend Scripture and the acts of the Ruach Elohim into daily life
• Yeshua's pattern: doing what the Father does, and the call for us to follow
• The promise of "greater works" and what living in divine authority actually looks like
• Why so many believers don't see miracles today
• Spiritual family vs. biological family — and the new DNA of being born again
• The Welsh revival and what Evan Roberts can teach us about awakening
• Why forgiveness from the heart is not optional
• Joseph's story as a model for forgiveness and divine purpose
• Why deliverance is the beginning, not the end
• Born of water and Spirit, and the ongoing battle with old wounds and lies
• A personal testimony of overcoming pneumonia through spiritual warfare
• What's coming with deliverance counselor Michael W. Smith

Scripture referenced: Matthew 6, the commission of the 70 (Luke 10), born of water and Spirit (John 3), the story of Joseph (Genesis)

There's a mission field in every town in America, sitting just down the road, full of people who rarely get a visitor. Bill Goodrich has spent over forty years there — and the stories he carries will change how you see the rooms you've been walking past.

In this interview, host Rolland Wright sits down with Bill Goodrich, founder of God Cares Ministry — a senior care ministry that now equips churches and volunteers across North America.

Bill has spent more than forty years in nursing homes, assisted living, and the rooms most of the body of Messiah has forgotten exists. He left full-time work in 1994 to start God Cares, and the mission has been the same ever since: equip the church to actually do what Scripture commands — care for the widow, the vulnerable, the ones at the end of the road.

Rolland and Bill talk about how senior care has changed over four decades, why the church is largely missing the closest mission field it has, and what authentic ministry looks like when the goal is friendship rather than a quick salvation prayer. Bill shares stories from inside the work — celebrating milestones, gift programs, bedside ministry — including a transformation story about a Bible study participant named Lenny that you'll want to hear from Bill himself.

This is the second Thursday interview of Series One: Ekklesia Infused, and it points squarely at one of the most overlooked expressions of Ekklesia in everyday life: choosing to see the people the world has stopped seeing.

You'll hear:

• How senior care has changed over four decades — and what's been lost

• Bill's personal calling and his early experiences in nursing home ministry

• Why authentic friendship matters more than a quick salvation message

• The 1994 decision to leave full-time work and launch God Cares Ministry

• The scope of God Cares Ministry across North America today

• The biblical mandate to care for widows, orphans, and the vulnerable

• Practical resources and training programs for churches and volunteers

• Why the scarcity of paid chaplain roles is an opportunity, not a barrier

• The risk of spiritual misinformation in care settings — and why Christ-centered ministry matters

• A story about a man named Lenny that will stay with you

  
  

Scripture themes: James 1:27 (caring for widows and orphans), Matthew 25:40 (the least of these)
