OUTPOST GROUPS

Uniting and equipping a global movement of truth seekers and bold leaders to embrace their God-given identity and realize their full potential.

OUTPOST GROUPS

A Revolution in Fellowship and Purpose

I used to feel stuck—longing for the deep connection and transformative power of God I read about in Scripture, yet frustrated by the shallow relationships and routines of traditional church settings.

Programs and Sunday services left me feeling like a spectator, part of a system that kept me busy but didn’t empower me. My heart ached for something more—authentic community that fostered real growth and a deeper encounter with God. That’s when the passion ignited to create something different—a space where decentralized leadership empowered truth-seekers to gather on their own terms while staying connected to a greater movement.

Enter The Outlier Brand.

What was missing? Fellowship rooted in authenticity, freedom, shared purpose, and an openness to the tangible presence and power of God.

Outpost Groups came alive from this vision—a way to step out of the noise of the world and into a space where God’s presence is not just a concept but a reality, where real connection happens, and spiritual transformation takes root.

These groups are more than gatherings; they’re a movement to reclaim what institutional systems often fail to provide—genuine fellowship that transforms lives and builds something greater.

WHAT IS AN OUTPOST GROUP?

An Outpost group is when two or more are gathered intentionally for the purpose of hearing God and ushering in the power of His kingdom.

How Are Outpost Groups Different from Church Small Groups?

Focuses on Hearing God's Voice – The goal is to know God personally, not just learn about Him. The primary purpose is to hear directly from God rather than simply gathering to discuss a teaching about God.

A Spirit-Led Community – Outpost groups create a safe space to exercise faith and access the supernatural power of God in tangible ways. Unlike traditional groups led by a sole leader, these groups encourage participation by all who gather and are guided by the Holy Spirit, fostering deeper connection and spirit-led growth.

Prioritize Experiencing God’s Presence – The emphasis is on encountering God’s power and glory in the moment for clarity, refreshing, and a deeper connection with Him, rather than engaging in surface-level conversation or casual fellowship alone.

An Autonomous Movement – Outpost groups prioritize movement over systems and conviction over programs. They operate independently, driven by the participants’ desire to grow in their faith, rather than being controlled or structured by an external entity like a church or pastor. This allows for organic spiritual growth, flexibility, and a dynamic response to God’s leading.

As a result of these principles, outpost groups naturally foster authentic vulnerability among believers. This openness creates genuine relational connections, builds trust, and encourages a deeper sense of community rooted in faith and mutual support united in spirit.

WHY OUTPOST GROUPS MATTER

Outpost Groups answer the deep yearning for KOINONIA—a Greek word describing close, intimate fellowship marked by shared purpose and mutual encouragement. They reclaim the simplicity and power of the early church by focusing on:

  • Community Over Programs: Genuine relationships that transcend surface-level connections.

  • Empowerment Over Control: Decentralized leadership that encourages every member to grow and contribute.

  • Encounter Over Routine: A hunger for God’s power to transform lives in real, tangible ways.

THE OUTPOST GROUP MODEL

Minimum Requirement - Two People: The beauty of an Outpost Group is that it starts small—just two or three people are enough to create a space where God is present. This simplicity ensures that no one feels intimidated or overwhelmed by the idea of starting a group.

Fellowship and Growth: Outpost Groups embrace the spirit of Acts 2:42, creating an environment for authentic relationships, shared teaching, prayer, and breaking bread together. The goal is unity and transformation through shared experiences.

Spirit-Filled Encounters: Outpost Groups prioritize inviting God’s tangible presence into every gathering. This means expecting His power to move through prayer, worship, testimonies, and acts of faith.

When Financial Hardship Strikes, Faith Makes the Difference

August 14, 20184 min read

Life doesn’t come with guarantees—especially when it comes to financial security. One moment, everything seems stable, and the next, you’re grappling with uncertainty, debt, or even the loss of a home. It’s in these moments that our faith is truly tested. I know this firsthand because I’ve lived it, and my journey inspired my book, Living on a Shoestring: Choosing Faith Through Financial Hardship.

What the Book is About

Living on a Shoestring is more than a survival guide—it’s a blueprint for choosing faith over fear when life feels like it’s spiraling out of control. Drawing from my own experiences with bankruptcy, betrayal, and rebuilding from nothing, this book provides practical wisdom and spiritual encouragement for anyone facing financial or personal hardships.

Why This Book Matters Now

In a post-pandemic world filled with economic uncertainty, layoffs, and rising costs, the struggles I wrote about 15 years ago feel more relevant than ever. Many of us are trying to balance the overwhelming pressure of financial instability while seeking clarity and peace. This book is for those who feel stuck in survival mode but are ready to move toward a life of purpose and abundance.

The Turning Point

One of the most defining moments in my journey came when I realized that my circumstances didn’t have to define my destiny. In the midst of financial ruin, I chose to lean into God’s promises instead of my fear. It wasn’t easy, and it wasn’t instantaneous, but that decision marked the beginning of my transformation.

Faith, perseverance, and intentional action became my guiding principles—and they are at the heart of this book. I learned that true freedom starts with renewing your mind and aligning your life with God’s truth.

How This Book Can Help You

This book isn’t just about my story—it’s about equipping you to face your challenges head-on. Here’s what you’ll gain:

  • Clarity: Learn to filter out the noise of fear and confusion so you can see your situation clearly.

  • Faith Over Fear: Discover how to cultivate unshakable faith even in the most uncertain times.

  • Practical Strategies: From renewing your mindset to managing your resources, you’ll find actionable steps for navigating financial storms.

  • Hope: This book is a reminder that you are never alone—God’s provision is real, and His plans for you are good.

Key Lessons from Living on a Shoestring

  1. Your Mindset Shapes Your Reality: Renewing your mind is the first step to breaking free from a scarcity mentality and stepping into God’s abundance.

  2. Faith Unlocks Possibilities: Faith isn’t blind optimism; it’s trusting in God’s promises and taking action even when the outcome isn’t clear.

  3. God is Your Source: Money, jobs, and material possessions are temporary, but God’s provision is eternal. When you shift your dependence to Him, worry loses its grip.

  4. Community Matters: Don’t isolate yourself during hard times. Surround yourself with people who will encourage and strengthen your faith.

  5. Purpose Transcends Circumstances: Hardship can become a platform for growth, clarity, and a deeper connection to God’s purpose for your life.

Why You Should Read This Book

If you’re struggling to see a way forward, Living on a Shoestring will remind you that there’s always hope. Whether you’re dealing with job loss, mounting debt, or simply feeling stuck, this book offers both spiritual encouragement and practical steps to help you move from survival to stability.

But it’s not just about surviving—it’s about thriving. God has more for you than just getting by. He wants you to experience His abundance, peace, and purpose in every area of your life.
