The Church is not called to predict the future, but to be faithful in it.

This is not a book of predictions. It is a guide for pastors, associational leaders, and denominational stakeholders who want to anticipate change, lead with clarity, and build a cooperative future worth stewarding.

Looking ahead, Christian media will likely become both local and global.

The future of discipleship will not be about choosing between orality and literacy. It will be about integrating both.

The Church must prepare them not with fear or nostalgia but with vision, formation, and hope.

Discerning what may come includes more than identifying prophetic patterns.

Jesus told us plainly that his kingdom is not of this world. Yet he also sent us into this world to teach everything he commanded.

That future will require more than policy changes. It will call for a renewed commitment to character over charisma, where building platforms takes a back seat to shepherding souls.

What happens when we build entire ministry models on platforms we do not control?

We are not just users of technology. We are stewards of the message. The future of Christian witness online depends on whether we build with foresight, not just convenience.

What could emerge if churches embraced perennialism, integrating lifelong adaptability, digital tools, mentoring, and spiritual formation across generations?

The tariffs are just the headlines. The bigger story is that the world is resetting. The Grey Champion has flipped the switch. What we build next will define the next era.

Distributed leadership is not just a trend. It is becoming a defining characteristic of missions and denominational life in the twenty-first century.

The next time you watch a political thriller on Netflix or listen to your conspiracy-prone uncle go off on a tangent at Thanksgiving, consider this: you might be engaging in a kind of informal foresight exercise.

Progressivism and conservatism may counterbalance each other, preventing either from reaching an extreme.

The progressive movement, known for its diverse and often divergent alliances, is at a crossroads.

To achieve true inclusivity, foresight must welcome perspectives that challenge dominant paradigms, including voices from faith-based groups often dismissed as regressive.

People nowadays are spending too much time discussing "The Fourth Turning" while paying less attention to the upcoming "First Turning." If the cycles are real, the next phase of the Saecula will ignite a revived interest in spirituality.

While most leaders are dedicated and capable, there are exceptions—the B.A.D. Leaders.

We are often lulled into the optimism of our aspirations, hoping that the future will improve. Yet history reveals that periods of progress are frequently preceded by moments of disruption and instability.
