By way of summary, in this book we will be trying to captivate the re-emergence of the prophetic and apostolic ministry as healthy, biblically and down to earth as possible. If they are the foundational ministries as the Bible describes them, these ministries and the people currently charged with these callings and giftings on earth will be the one single group used by God to reshape and reform the church, and, as a result, will re-shake the world. As God does nothing without sharing it with his servants, the prophets (Amos 3:7), we will take an exciting tour and evaluate some prophetic stories of recent years. Then we will take a closer look at the missional design, the apostolic architecture of the church, and finally consider some of the apostolic tasks that lie ahead and discuss the implications of this for individuals, churches and regions.
