I certainly wish I had access to a course like this years ago but I am grateful to have gone through the course at this point in my life.. The material in this micro intensive is organized in a way that gives you a progressive understanding of Jesus and His Ecclesia, and the Kingdom of God. Tim Kurtz does of good job of asking questions that, even now, continue to help me reflect on where adjustments need to be made in my life to align with Gods Kingdom. The micro intensive organizes these important truths about the Kingdom of God in one place very systematically and offers lots of practical action points that you can immediately begin to implement. I certainly wish I had access to a course like this years ago but I am grateful to have gone through the course at this point in my life. I recommend this for anyone who (i) wants to gain a deeper revelation of Christ, and His Kingdom, (ii) wants to learn how to host house gatherings of the ecclesia, and (iii) is serious about making continuous life adjustments to align with the Kingdom of God and fulfill our mandate as God's Ecclesia in the earth. Thank you brother Tim for this labor of love for the Kingdom!

Both the modules and the live sessions engage the learner to look at the practical ways to move into this process.. When my wife and me first started taking Tim Kurtz’ Micro-Intensive on Ekklesia, we understood ekklesia as what it is, a called out assembly that operates as a spiritual legislative body for Yeshua to make impact in this world. Local fellowship and larger corporate fellowship are included in this definition. It is not a building, but people who are building and being built up by Christ. I met others who were going in that same direction, whom we talked with in the live sessions and heard from their experiences. Their experiences and those of the instructor deepened my understanding of what it means for people to reach out beyond their comfort zones in search of something better than traditions that do not edify. In this course you will learn about what the word ekklesia means. You will learn about the kingdom of God in terms of Christ’s mandate for us to be fruitful, multiply, replenish the earth, subdue, and have dominion. You will learn about the pattern of the early believers and what they did when they met, plus how that impacts us today – apostle’s doctrine, fellowship, breaking of bread, prayers (Acts 2:42). This module will teach you about kingdom DNA and kingdom values. And it will emphasize a healthy house gathering where everyone is encouraged to participate. This means meeting from house to house and in public like Scripture says. That said, I was encouraged to know that this course was not about separating into another denomination or looking down on everyone else in the church world who does not agree with the meaning of ekklesia as described in this module—and as described by other voices in the Body of Christ who have followed in this pattern. But Tim Kurtz stresses Christian unity and submitting to one another in humility—elders, shepherds, apostles, other Christians, etc. Key focuses are making ways to apply what you have learned in the revelation through realignment, reflection and release, all with Jesus Christ at the center. Tim Kurtz helps the learner understand the cost of stepping out to be the kingdom citizen in your arena, not as the church but as the ekklesia. Both the modules and the live sessions engage the learner to look at the practical ways to move into this process. Tim Kurtz helped my wife and me to further confirm that we are on the right path—that is, walking away from institutional religious structures that are not in line with God’s word to engage in spiritual fellowship that is in line with God’s word. Stepping into a calling from God has challenges that should not be underestimated. I was grateful that both instructor and participants were willing to delve into the reality of this experience without sugar-coating it. All in all, this module is a great starting point to help you learn to meet with others in Biblical ways not so common in today’s Americanized Christianity.
