Martin Scott – Changing the World, One Gate at a Time
Martin Scott, a key prophetic voice from the UK has been instrumental in the shaping of my theological growth in the last 6-7 years or so. I’ve had the privilege on a few different very brief occasions to work with him in the UK, but mostly in France. His is a catalytic calling. He’s called to be a catalyst in different geographic contexts. Currently that has included the UK, continental Europe and North and South America principally. He has the gift to challenge and stimulate in such a way that individuals and corporate expressions of the Body of Christ begin to walk out more fully what their identity is (i.e. he’s not interested in people serving his vision), but in connection with what God is doing on a more global basis. Additionally, he’s one of the few people (in my opinion) from the UK/Europe in the Body of Christ who speak with clarity/objectivity with respect to the United States. I find this very refreshing and appreciate him all the more because of it.
Lately, he’s been investing in the development of his web site, especially his blog. It is becoming a very effective tool for expression and exchange and I highly recommend it to you (especially the blog): http://www.3generations.eu/
In the podcast part of his blog, he has a message that he gave a few months ago in Orangevale, California (he’s had quite an investment and impact in California). It’s main themes are that:
Martin typically throws out a thought-provoking statement and then moves on quickly to another one! So don’t be surprised if you keep coming back and listening to this again to reflect on something you didn’t get the first time. In fact I encourage you to do that. I think I’m on my 3rd or 4th listening to this message right now!

Spiritual Violence and an understanding of John the Baptist
I’m excited to make this teaching by Mike Bickle available. I feel that it lays a key foundation conceptually, if not in practical detail, of how the Christian life is supposed to work. It can re-orient our western way of approaching Jesus and spirituality. It is also very important in how we position our hearts for the future that awaits us, and the future that we shape with our lives.
Practically speaking (in a theological sense) it also can help us make sense of Matthew 11 and John the Baptist…an often enigmatic figure in scripture…but who is, as you will see, of supreme importance to us in this generation of human history as a sign and an example.
I know this is all vague language, but you really need to listen to this to “get it” in my opinion.
