This episode introduces the concept of “non-hierarchical revelation” as key to the spiritual health of any Christ centered organization.
This episode dives into ideas about how revelation going in both directions:
1] creates a synergistic partnership between leadership and lay membership where both parties are increasingly growing in their abilities to not only communicate with God, but also where all parties learn to work together as spiritual equals
2] insulates the church from the misplaced idea that God limits revelation to those with certain positions of formal power
3] protects leaders from a burden of perfection in receiving revelation that no one cannot be expected to maintain
4] takes the pressure off of leaders [and their predecessors] from fruitlessly defending their own stances when their directions prove afterwards not to have been revelatory.
In sum, the model of non-hierarchal revelation invites our entire spiritual community to become more mature, seeking, and collaborative as it spreads out the burden of responsibility amongst the entire body of the church!
