TPM - Definition

 

TPM is Christ Centered Prayer (Link)

The TPM Basic Training Seminar Manual defines TPM as, "Intentional and focused prayer with the desired outcome of an authentic encounter with the presence of Christ, resulting in mind renewal and subsequent transformed life."

Theo (God) Phostic (light) is a ministry of prayer that is Christ centered and God reliant for its direction and outcome. Simply stated, it is encouraging a person to discover and expose what he believes that is a falsehood; and then encouraging him to have an encounter with Jesus Christ through prayer, thus allowing the Lord to reveal His truth to the wounded person's heart and mind. It is not about advice giving, diagnosing problems, or sharing opinions or insight. It is about allowing a person to have a personal encounter with the Lord Jesus in the midst of the person's emotional pain.  I (Ed Smith) understand that it is the Holy Spirit that lead us into all truth and that it is He that intercedes for us in prayer to the Father.  However, I also believe that we can have a personal relationship with the person of Jesus.  The Apostle desired to "know Him" (Phil. 3:10) and experience Him; "Him" being the person of Jesus.
