Cutting Through the Religious Red Tape: Why Control Masquerading as Covering is Killing Kingdom Vision

Published on: 7th June, 2025

In this provocative episode, we take a deep dive into Glenn Bleakney' article discussing the difference between apostolic alignment and institutional control.

Why are so many pioneering leaders feeling choked by “relational networks” that look more like rebranded denominations? Why are churches told they must comply before they can be covered?

Discover how to break free from the compliance culture that's stifling your mandate and how to walk in covenant connection without compromising your Kingdom call. If you’ve ever felt the tension between freedom and accountability, this episode is your blueprint for clarity, courage, and covenant.

🔥 Learn why:

  • Oversight should champion, not control.
  • Real alignment doesn't silence your voice—it amplifies it.
  • You can be non-denominational and still deeply connected.

🎧 Tune in now to recover your breath, reclaim your boldness, and build what God’s called you to—without the red tape.
