God Calls On You To Refound America
America's Re-Independence will manifest one Christofuturist community at a time.
We've established the hierarchy: God reigns, humans serve God, AI serves humans.
We've established that He calls on us to be and manifest heaven on earth with every action we take.
But how do we manifest heaven when we're spiritually enslaved, economically hostage, and culturally adrift?
We start by declaring independence from everything that keeps us from God's will. And what better day to make that declaration than today, July 4th, 2025—exactly one year before America's 250th anniversary?
It’s Time To Declare Our Independence From The Dominion Of Darkness

On this July 4th, 2025, we declare America's Re-Independence.
We declare independence from our spiritual obesity, the zombie apocalypse that we are living through. From our over-reliance on foreign countries that we outsourced our productive capacity to. From our addiction to importing talent versus training our own people.
We declare independence from our fleshly desires. From our thirst to be and ‘build’ God. From our broken models of work, education, and interpersonal connection; and all the rotten fruits of our secular world.
We declare independence from the way that we have been using and building social media to suck each other into cycles of addiction, disconnection, and numbness. From a society that makes it feel like a luxury to be fruitful and multiply.
Above all, we declare independence from the dominion of darkness. A big reason why we're so confused about our situations—why we don't know what to do with our kids, why so many institutions are failing—is because we're dealing with spirits and principalities (Ephesians 6:12), not just evil that manifests through individuals. This is spiritual warfare waged by an enemy who seeks to trap us in pits of despair.
But we will win this spiritual war by choosing his narrow path.
We Must Learn from America 1.0's Rise and Fall
We are living through America's founding story all over again.
250 years ago, our founders established a new nation with the mission of creating a prosperous, God-centered society.
They and their successors were so successful at this mission—at least, for White men—that by the 1950s and 60s, a middle-class White family was better off than wealthy families in just about every other country.
America had full-stack society engineering capacity—the ability to systematically design and build across the complete society stack: physical infrastructure, communication systems, economic frameworks, educational institutions, and community structures that enable human flourishing. We built everything ourselves, homes were affordable, and society was both prosperous and largely God-centered.
To be clear, that era got a lot of the economics right while getting human dignity tragically wrong. We can learn from their manufacturing sovereignty and community prosperity without repeating their exclusions. True Christofuturist communities welcome and empower people of all races and backgrounds who share the mission.
After the 1960s, we financialized everything. We traded manufacturing for managing money. We shipped our productive capacity overseas for short-term profits. The wisdom of how to actually build things is dying with our grandparents. Meanwhile, our education system devolved into test score theater—celebrating academic performance that has little correlation with building the future. Getting a 5 on AP Physics means you can memorize formulas, not engineer a bridge or solve the housing crisis.
To make matters worse, much of why America 1.0 has sustained as the world's most dominant superpower is by governing through threat of invasion. Embrace our soulless consumerism, use our social media platforms, and worship our celebrities, or else! Ultimately, the world runs on the U.S. dollar not from trust in our system, but from fear of the consequences of rejecting it.
The United States could earn a divine mandate to shepherd the nations of the world. But right now, Americans aren't even training our own citizens in Christofuturist society engineering, much less training people outside of the country in this discipline. We must shift from weaponizing fear-based dominance to earning genuine trust by exporting both the foundational tech and wisdom for human flourishing.
This fear-based system is bound to collapse. But we can't sit on our hands and just wait to rebuild from the rubble of America 1.0.
As mentioned, today marks exactly one year until America's 250th anniversary. We must start unlocking the new America now—our Christofuturist society—one heart transformed through Christ at a time, growing into Christ-centered, industry-leading communities.
Christofuturist Communities Are The Foundation for America 2.0
How will this Christofuturist society emerge?
Intentional heart transformation that unlocks Christofuturist communities—pockets of heaven on earth where transformed individuals create industries that serve human flourishing.
These communities will emerge organically around Christoindustrialists—industry leaders who put Christ first and receive God's heart for specific people and places.
Rather than creating overly detailed, multi-year plans and hoping for masses of workers to immediately show up, these leaders will start with available skills and callings, serving immediate needs while maintaining kingdom values. They will pursue excellence in virtue, competency, and impact, kickstarting and fostering Christoindustries that are unambiguously good engines of human flourishing, not factories chasing quarterly profits at the expense of human exploitation.
As these communities prove their transformation and growth, successful Christoindustrialists will naturally acquire or lease land and facilities—breathing kingdom life into existing infrastructure or developing new spaces that serve their growing community. This might look like chartering a new town, revitalizing a dying community, or establishing a community center, but it always represents a colocated center of gravity for the increasing number of people being unlocked through manifesting Christ's heart in practical ways. The physical infrastructure serves the proven community, not the other way around.
When profit comes at the expense of people's wellbeing, it's not Christoindustrialist. When an industry feeds fleshly desires over spiritual ones, it misses the mark.
Take housing as an example of how a values-neutral industry can become a Christoindustry. America's housing crisis stems from industries controlled by players whose values don't align with family formation and community building, combined with an education crisis that leaves American citizens without the skills to build. A Christoindustrialist housing company would build beautiful, affordable homes that strengthen families and neighborhoods—making housing itself a Christoindustry. The industry would train local people—especially those with heritage in the area—to lead and innovate, not just consume its outputs.
Now, consider how another Christoindustry—gospel music—might emerge organically:
Archbishop E. Bernard Jordan, co-founder of Zoe Ministries and internationally recognized prophet, was recently asked to establish a community-owned gospel record label. With over 40 years of ministry experience, leadership of the School of the Prophets, and a global network spanning multiple continents, Archbishop Jordan represents the ideal Christoindustrialist to unlock this vision.
Starting with the gospel artists and producers like Grammy-winning David Bratton already connected to Zoe Ministries, this label would partner with and serve artists with kingdom values, ensuring they retain ownership and spiritual integrity while creating music that brings people closer to God.
As the community grows around this mission, it would naturally develop into a gospel music mecca—a colocated center of gravity where the world's most anointed gospel artists gather to create, collaborate, and minister. The economic success would fund recording facilities, artist development programs, and eventually educational institutions—which would train the next generation of kingdom-centered musicians.
Now, here are three other examples of communities that could emerge around specific Christoindustries:
Imagine a group of creative, tech-savvy believers called to create faith-focused immersive experiences, starting small in their town and expanding to many cities around the world as their experiences grow in revenue and popularity, eventually rivaling Disney-world level impact.
Imagine a group of gifted scientists and engineers called to commercialize applications of their discoveries in quantum sciences that serve human flourishing; using the profits of their products to fund further research and applications.
Imagine a group of divinely anointed healers called to train world-class healers—starting with one location and then replicating their programs in other cities as the healing miracles produced by graduates inspire benefactors to pour funding into the training programs worldwide.
For each community that grows into a world-leading center for its Christoindustry, it produces and circulates within the community billions in value, while demonstrating that prioritizing Christ's grounding is not a constraint on success but a catalyst for it.
The economic success naturally funds land acquisition, facility development, and infrastructure that serves the proven community's continued growth and multiplication.
The Christocompound As The Heart Of The Community
As Christofuturist communities grow through relationship and trust, a “Christocompound” will emerge—the natural physical gathering point where spiritual life creates community life.
These comprehensive gathering places will be built as growing communities need dedicated places—not just homes or borrowed spaces—where spiritual, physical, nutritional, and educational needs can converge.
The Christocompound cares for the whole person.
Think of the compound called "The Crossover" in Cedar Park, Texas—a place where faith (led by Tauren Wells' Whitestone Church), food, learning, and wellness create holistic human flourishing.
Early childhood education and daycare for community families will happen within the Christocompound, ensuring children's formative years are rooted in both spiritual foundation and community connection.
Also from the Christocompound will radiate Christofuturist education—schools purpose-built to produce the next generation of Christoindustrialists. These schools can be part of the compound or separate facilities, but they share the same mission: teaching society engineering, not just test-taking.
Students at Christofuturist schools will build strong foundations in science, software architecture, theology, economics, and human nature while getting hands-on training contributing to real construction projects from middle school onward.
They will understand elemental realities, how materials actually behave, how digital tools can improve physical infrastructure. And they will practice using AI as a tool for helping them advance their calling to be and manifest heaven on earth.
In ten years, the world's most capable leaders—real renaissance people genuinely capable of contributing to spacecraft design, city planning, and next-generation manufacturing—will emerge from these schools.
Proximity, Not Isolation
These communities don't require isolation from existing cities. Most will emerge organically within or right next to places like Tulsa, Austin, Salt Lake City, and other metro areas as transformed individuals create kingdom-centered businesses and relationships. Rather than starting with master-planned communities, we will focus on being salt and light in existing locations, developing natural boundaries that allow us to be in the world but not of the world. This proximity to existing infrastructure will make organic growth more practical and accessible while maintaining the focused community culture that enables spiritual and economic flourishing.
As these communities grow, talent and character will naturally determine who joins and stays. Families will participate based on capability, virtue, and commitment to contributing to the mission. Divinely high standards create divinely great outcomes. This is not elitism, it's recognizing that manifesting heaven on earth requires people aligned with that mission.
The natural progression from successful community to town development will create colocated centers of gravity where like-minded, like-hearted families want to live near each other, businesses want to establish operations, and new infrastructure naturally develops to serve the proven community's needs.
You Can Breathe Life Into Existing Infrastructure
Successful Christoindustrialists will often find that God leads them to existing infrastructure that needs kingdom life breathed into it.
Many existing towns across the world are dying and can be brought back to life through transformed communities. For instance, in Italy, dozens of small villages now offer €1 homes to new residents willing to renovate and repopulate communities.
While in Japan, cities and rural regions are tackling the “akiya” crisis (literal millions of abandoned homes) by offering ultra‑low‑cost houses and grants for renovation. In some cases, you can simply move in, add satellite internet and upgrade infrastructure, achieving transformation for a fraction of the cost of building new.
Whether you end up kickstarting your community’s physical colocation in an abandoned town or town that is mostly inhabited, remember that community mission alignment comes first before dedicating a lot of resources to physical infrastructure.
Glory of Zion: A Living Example of the Unlock-Then-Build Process
Consider the founding story of Glory of Zion International Ministries in Denton, Texas. In 1974, founders Robert and Linda Heidler started with a simple Bible study in their friend's duplex in Denton, driving up from Dallas every other week to help her learn Scripture.
Heart transformation came first—they were moved by compassion to serve someone's spiritual need using their available resources (their time, travel, and biblical knowledge).
Organic relationship growth followed. Soon, the Heidlers’ friend's neighbor got saved. Then her neighbor's husband. Then the friend's boyfriend and his boss. Within two years, this heart-led ministry had grown large enough to incorporate as a church in 1976.
After incorporating as a church, Robert and Linda moved to Denton and continued expanding facilities only as the community outgrew each space—from the friend's duplex to rented church building to purchased facility. Each location became a colocated center of gravity that attracted and served their growing community.
Territorial transformation resulted. In Linda's words from my recent conversation with her: "Everywhere we went, it was like we went in and it was desolate. And just our presence being there and worship and the Spirit of God being there, brought flourishing... when the Lord comes in and is honored and is worshiped, it changes the spiritual atmosphere of physical territory, and it brings prosperity."
Today, Glory of Zion operates within a massive former Boeing manufacturing facility, serves 10-12,000 people online globally, and has transformed multiple desolate areas into prosperous communities. The pattern: heart transformation → relationships → organic growth → infrastructure → territorial impact.

A quick note: While the Heidlers saw success taking over preexisting buildings, sometimes new construction is the path forward, especially as we now have better understandings of how to design optimal societal systems—including sewage, energy, agriculture, and network infrastructure that support kingdom community life.
The Compelling Draw for Every Demographic
Why would people choose to move toward a Christofuturist community? Because these communities will demonstrate what nowhere else can—the fruit of individual heart transformation creating collective flourishing.
For families—the core demographic—it's the ability to raise children in a community that reinforces rather than undermines your values. Where your kids' friends share your worldview. Where schools teach the Truth. Where neighborhoods are designed for children to play safely and parents to build deep friendships. Where multi-generational wisdom flows naturally and family formation is celebrated, not treated as an inconvenience. These communities will build their own news sites, media platforms, and social networks—giving families Christ-aligned defaults for information while not necessarily abandoning secular platforms entirely, so young people can still be part of the world but not of the world.
Speaking of young people, the draw of joining a Christofuturist community is radically better education that prepares them to ride the waves of innovation and shape the future, not just understand it from the sidelines.
For singles, it's a community where they can find fully aligned life partners who share the vision of where things should head; and by default want to be fruitful and multiply.
For professionals, it's work in their highest and best use for God's will instead of being pigeonholed in secular corporate hellholes.
For retirees, it's living among values-aligned, optimistic, smart people building something beautiful together.
Each demographic gets what they will find it extremely hard to find anywhere else: a joyful, prosperous, God-centered life.
Why Boundaries Matter: Protection from a Fallen World
In modern cities, it's inevitable to become behaviorally lukewarm—the very condition Christ warns against in Revelation 3:15-16: "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth."
Surrounded by endless temptation and spiritual mediocrity, even the most committed believers find their fire dimming. Science confirms what wisdom teaches: willpower is not a helpful thing to imagine you have in circumstances of ever-present temptation—instead, put yourself in environments that naturally uphold your values.
Christofuturist towns serve as safe havens where the fire of the Holy spirit burns pure. Here, it's easy to avoid lukewarmness because the entire community ambiently reinforces spiritual excellence. Our kids, our homes, our workspaces, our places of worship, our schools; and our devices and information ecosystems must be protected from this corruption. Without strong boundaries, the enemy will sabotage our missions.
Importantly, boundaries enables the transformation Paul calls for in Romans 12:1-2: "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is — his good, pleasing and perfect will."
In a Christofuturist town, non-conformity to worldly patterns won’t be a struggle—it will be the natural result of living in community aligned with divine purpose. These towns will foster people who will stay focused and pure enough to enact His will around the world.
Our current system may seem like it can last, but is actually a bubble ready to burst. Financial systems could collapse tomorrow. Supply chains are hostage to rival nations. The dollars you saved might become worthless.
That's why the supply chain matters as much as the product. If your local industries depend on overseas players who don't share your values, you're hostage to their agenda. Christofuturist towns pursue supply chain sovereignty, ensuring that every link in the chain operates according to the right principles. When crisis hits—and it will, again and again in these coming years—these communities will have the resilience to survive.
Financial surplus (and one or more community-leading families) from established towns seeds new ones. Christofuturism will create abundance that multiplies, with many towns as proofs of concept for how to design for human flourishing.
Get Ready For A Cambrian Explosion of “Christocultures”
Over the coming years, we want to see a wave of heart-led transformation: dozens of Christofuturist communities emerging organically with different sets of leaders, customs, and denominations. Each community will develop its own distinct culture, shaped by geography, the specific needs God highlights, and the unique gifts of its people. A town in Florida will evolve differently from one in Arizona, not just because of climate differences, but because of the challenges they face, the types of people they attract, and the local heritage they build upon.
No two Christofuturist towns will be identical. That's the point. We're developing a new science around creating Christocultures—understanding how different combinations of leadership, industry, worship style, and community customs produce different fruits. Some towns might emphasize contemplative traditions with long prayer walks and silent retreats. Others might pulse with energetic worship and constant collaboration. Some will be led by non-denominational leaders, others by Catholics, others by Baptists, and so on—all sharing a devotion to Christ but expressing His kingdom through different cultural flavors.
The fruits each town bears will be both spiritual and material. We'll measure success not just by financial metrics, but by the depth of community relationships, the character development of children, the innovation emerging from their industries, and the magnetic pull they create for outsiders investigating why their productive outputs are so high quality and why families inside are doing so well.
A healer-training town that produces healers that repeatedly make miracles happen, or a gospel music town that produces artists who inspire millions toward Christ, are Christocultures worth studying.
As communities multiply and impact the world, we'll discover the principles that allow different Christocultures to flourish.
America 2.0 Starts With You
God calls you to start unlocking His kingdom in your sphere today.
Ask God for His heart toward the people and places around you. Use your available skills—caretaking, teaching, welding, manufacturing, energy systems, software architecture—to serve immediate needs in your community. Raise children who know their purpose. Connect with families who share your values. Transform your business to serve human flourishing. Every choice moves you closer to the community transformation God wants to accomplish through you.
This is how we win the war: creating strongholds of Christ. Every heart transformed and community unlocked is territory reclaimed from the dominion of darkness. We put on the full armor of God not just individually, but collectively through communities that embody truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, and the Word of God.
We are drowning in a flood of spiritual warfare. And are thus called to become arks—transformed people who embody God's Kingdom wherever He places us.
This is our 1776 moment. Our founders declared independence from a distant king who didn't share their values.
And today, we declare independence from the systems and forces that hold us hostage to agendas that oppose God's will.
God calls on you to refound America now.
He has blessed you with the gifts you need and placed the right people around you.
Unite with them and manifest heaven on earth, together.

Yes. Thank you. I have felt called to a vague mission which you just articulated well. Gary, I want to serve and learn from you, to then go forth & multiply. It may be that I'm already ready, and need to return from NYC to Cincinnati and begin my ministry-engineering there.
This helps me narrow my focus after years of exploration. Onward.
Incredible article. Loved the Denton community example of slowly building a Christ centered community! The things we need for our souls is much more attainable than one would assume. Step by step, brick by brick.
