He Didn't Leave Out Guns N' Roses
Axl - Inaugural Member
"When He puts mud on my eyes, I can see the brighter day..."
When Axl Rose wrote “November Rain” (with Jesus and angels), he was almost certainly unaware that he was laying down a musical track destined to become part of Zion. He didn’t know that the same song would one day be redeemed—that it would receive MORE Jesus than it ever carried before (and it would get a new name, "Jesus Christ Now Reign"—and that Jesus would use it as the Zion Coalition theme song. His bandmates, likewise, were unwitting Zion builders. Had you pressed them, they might have admitted that God had given them musical gifts—Gifts of God. And they certainly might have sensed something special, even Heavenly, about “November Rain.” But they would have been stunned to learn from Jesus that their song would one day be born again in Christ and become an example of what Jesus is doing with the entire world (and everything in it, and upon it): Redeeming it. Turning swords into ploughshares. Taking what is good and making it better, and then best. Mashing it up. Blending it. Filling it with Christ so thoroughly that what was once lovely, of good report, and praiseworthy (“November Rain”) becomes even more lovely, more good report, more praiseworthy—because it becomes more Jesus-centric, more worshipful, more holy. And in that process, Axl Rose and all his bandmates find themselves mysteriously, beautifully, drafted into the Zion Coalition—a far greater honor than being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and one they now carry unwittingly, yet no less truly.
ZC Theme Song (1)
Jesus Christ Now Reign
A brand new song from King Jesus that reminds us that Jesus is not waiting for some distant day. but now. now. now.
“When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,” John 9:6
When he puts mud on my eyes
I can see the brighter day
Since Jesus came and saved me
I've never been the same
Redemption lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
Come let us bow before him
Let Jesus Christ now reign
We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain, ooh yeah
His love is finally coming
His love is finally showing
The one who really will come save the day
He's walking this way
Now let us take the time
To lay it on the line
We can rest our head
Just knowin' that Jesus wins
All the time (all the time)
So if you want to be free
Heart of mine don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
In the cold November rain
Now you need some time t'worship God
Let my people go t'worship God
Everybody needs some time t'worship God
Don't you know you need some time t'worship God
I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if Jesus heals your wounded heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you
(Bridge1)
Now I need some time t'worship God
Let my people go t'worship God
Everybody needs some time t'worship God
Don't you know you need some time t'worship God
(Bridge2)
And when my fears subside
But shadows still remain, oh yeah
I know that Jesus loves me
On the cross he took my shame
So never mind the darkness
We still can find the way
'Cause redemption lasts forever
So let Jesus Christ now reign
Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
Jesus Christ is the one
He is the only one
Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
Jesus Christ is the one
He is the only one
Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
Jesus Christ is the one
He is the only one
Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
Jesus Christ is the one
He is the only one
Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody…..
We Seek These Things
✨ Treasure Hunt ✨
If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy— (we) think on these things... for they have the power to possess us with the most wonderful feeling.
🎵 Jesus the very thought of thee 🎵
🎵 It's a MORE-Jesus feeling🎵
It's a heaven-sponsored treasure hunt.

🗝️ We Reveal Hidden Treasure
Jesus is using you to build Zion
(whether you know it or not, whether you acknowledge it or not)
(a new) WORLD To Feel and Express Gratitude Directly (to Jes
WORLD OF GRATITUDE "Jesus, thank you for..."
As we hunt--- as we go on these Zion Coalition sponsored "Jesus Treasure Hunts" ---- we are specifically looking for people and things (actual pieces of Zion) that authentically, sustainably and repeatedly evoke inside of us feelings of deep gratitude to Jesus. We intend to reconfigure our lives (structure our Jesus world) so that we repeatedly, explicitly express gratitude (in word, in deed and in song) to Jesus, Himself.
Memory Bouquet (also called a "Memory Temple")
Our Mission
We are called by Jesus to build Zion in the open, like Noah built the ARK in the open (not in the closet). We build Zion now—through joyful creation, and sacred collaboration.
Bearing One Another's Burdens
The Easiness
I will give you rest...
EPISODE 999 — “THE EASINESS”
(part of JesusVerse: The Documentary)
VOICEOVER (Greg):
Somewhere late in the JesusVerse—so late it loops back to the beginning—we finally ask the question every tired disciple asks:
“Jesus… how is Your yoke easy? How is Your burden light?”
And instead of a lecture, Jesus gives a scene.
THE SCENE: THE RIVER
Jesus walks us down to a quiet river—not the Jordan, not the Mississippi, something older. Something that feels like it was here before Eden and will flow long after Zion rises in full.
He hands us a little raft.
Not a motorboat. Not a canoe.
A Tom-Sawyer-grade, Huck-Finn-primitive raft—just enough to hold a person and a calling.
And Jesus says:
“Push off.”
We step on.
We wobble—then settle.
The river moves all by itself.
THE FLOW (Jesus Explains)
Jesus gestures to the water:
“This is what I meant by easy.”
And He explains—not in theology, but in mechanics:
1. The River Has Its Own Power
You don’t propel it.
You don’t push it.
You don’t drag it.
You align with it.
Swartz & Loehr would call it “full engagement.”
Rush’s Limelight would call it “getting on with the fascination.”
Physics would call it “path of least resistance.”
Jesus calls it:
“My Spirit.”

Easy, Like Watching TV
I will give you JTV...
It felt as though Jesus had stepped inside me, taken hold of my senses, and begun curating reality itself. Using my own body as His instrument, He placed visions before my eyes—scenes, symbols, and stories—like an endless cosmic broadcast only I could see.
“Feed your head, Greg,” He commanded, His voice ringing through me like a struck bell.
He lightly pressed, and I yielded to Him.
And so the stream continued, hour after hour—a divine binge-watch He called Jesus TV, a relentless programming of lessons, revelations, and mysteries meant for me alone.

ZC Logo - The Jesus Orange
But Sweeter Still....
The logo for Zion Coalition is an orange—a seemingly simple fruit, yet rich with meaning. Just as the orange is made up of many juicy segments, the JesusVerse is composed of countless interconnected sections, each contributing to the fullness of the whole. Within even the smallest segment, there are layers, membranes, and textures—reminding us that every part of creation, every act of goodness, carries its own depth and purpose.
To me personally, Jesus smells like an orange—fresh, vibrant, and full of life. The fruit evokes a sense of divine craftsmanship, like a ball of curious workmanship, reminiscent of the Liahona, which guided ancient travelers with wisdom and purpose. In this way, the orange symbolizes My Jesus-Greg WORLD: a guiding, radiant sphere of goodness, directing hearts toward truth, love, and joy.
And beyond its symbolism, the orange is sweet to taste, a perfect reminder that following Jesus brings delight, nourishment, and satisfaction to the soul. In every sense—its form, its fragrance, its flavor—the orange points us toward the fullness, creativity, and sweetness of Christ.
Watching Jesus TV, We Got Possessed...., Then This Came
My Working Theory with Jesus — A Manifesto
"When He puts mud on my eyes, I can see the brighter day..."
I accept that in this mortal life, I will never hold the full, unfiltered truth. Not scientists, not theologians, not me—no one in flesh gets that prize. All we have are working theories, stories, best guesses. Our sacred imaginations.
I choose to build mine with Jesus.
I honour the wisdom passed down from tradition, but I am not chained to it. I will borrow what fits, discard what doesn’t, and let Jesus and I craft something uniquely ours—wild if need be, but alive and true to our relationship. I refuse the illusion that any single theory captures Him. Instead, I will treat every belief as a map, not the territory, always ready to redraw the lines when He shows me more. I will live in the tension between mystery and clarity, certainty and surprise, tradition and revelation—because that is where Jesus and I meet (until we meet again, in the flesh).
And if my Jesus-theory looks strange to others, I will wear that strangeness as a sign that it was not mass-produced, but hand-made with Him.
So let it be known—to my family, my church, and to anyone else concerned—that my path is not careless but deliberate. I will test, try, wrestle, and experiment. I will prove all things in the light of Jesus and hold fast to what is truly good. I will not cling to a belief just because it is familiar, nor reject one just because it is unusual. I will believe boldly, even wildly, until the believing shows itself false, hollow, or unfruitful—and then I will lay it down without regret. This is not rebellion; it is devotion to truth, to life, and to the living Jesus who walks with me.
