I'm one of those who have the opinion that the current "dispora" of The Way Int'l is by design, rather than the breakup of a large ministry.  At the forefront of this, are God's Way Corps obviously, not to be outdone by the many thousands of others who have taken up the mantle.  In many respects, it bares similitude to the vernacular "shit hitting the fan".  Acts makes a reference to an instance in which the believers went everywhere preaching the word.  Together with tools like the Internet, we're seeing great pressure being put on the same old traditions of men, which has been predominant for centuries.  

Recently, I discovered a significantly large group of Christians who hold beliefs very similar to those that we had been taught, and mostly are actively practiced under a different moniker.  I felt strangely comfortable with many of them, and drawn to help them along with a few inconsistencies (as I saw them).  This group is inclusive in nature, and therefore drifts a bit in personal dividings, much like a conglomeration of several denominational viewpoints, while being accepting of one another.  This is the opposite of how we were taught, being recipients of "the rightly divided word"; we became "EXclusive", a problem that is still problematic, today.

Anyway, these thousands of mostly accurate believers are spread throughout the US and world, but are largely unheard of because they are organized as a network of independent churches.  Some speak in tongues, and some water baptize, and some adhere to the law, but all are non-trinitarian, dead are dead, church epistle, rapture/hope Christ-ins.  The odd part is, WE thought that we were the only ministry that had such beliefs.  And they are highly evangelistic, meaning they walk the walk, and talk the talk; each and every one.  Outreach is a mission from God, for them.

One thing they lack:  they start churches in barns, community colleges, or shopping malls, but cannot find fully trained ministers to undershepard them as a church pastor, probably because all the ministerial schools are teaching lies.  I offered that the Way Corps could fill this leadership gap.  But, one doesn't march in with the spirit of overlord, it takes loving commitment to not teach all you know, and be willing to move to a new location with a small salary.

I'd like to know if there are several Way Corps who could do this, who find that their ministries are not what they want them to be.  This is a want-ad.  The concept is to over many years meld and morph, teach and love this group; and change accordingly for the sake of the movement of the word.  We've GOT the leadership, they've got a need for leaders.
