Well Resource Spotlight: A Little Bit About The Kingdom Of God

by | , , , , , , ,

Christy talks about the importance of helping women understand the kingdom of God. There are only two kingdoms – the kingdom of God and the kingdom of darkness. Every choice we make advances one kingdom or the other. Many women have no understanding of the kingdom of God, so this Well resource handout ‘A Little Bit About the Kingdom of God’ is very useful to explain what the kingdom of God is, how Jesus taught about it extensively, and our role as participants and ambassadors of this kingdom. You can find this resource on our website (yay! you are already here) through the resource tab!

Is Your Inner Peace Circumstantial l Like An Infant?

by | , , , , , , ,

This passage explores the analogy of a weaned child with its mother as a metaphor for our relationship with God. The weaned child is content and trusting, unlike the demanding and fretful infant. Similarly, us as believers should learn to be happy and content in God’s presence, without demanding or fussing, trusting that God will provide what is needed.

The Leadership Styles That Work Best In A Group Aimed At Discipleship

by | , , , ,

THE LEADERSHIP STYLES THAT WORK BEST IN A GROUP AIMED AT DISCIPLESHIP

There are four basic leadership styles that impact the way you conduct a group:

Autocratic: Content-oriented, no discussion, lecture style; the leader dominates the group and there is little to no discussion

Authoritarian: Content-oriented, interactive; the leader controls the direction of the group and the discussion

Democratic: Discussion-oriented, lots of sharing; the leader operates as a guide or facilitator of the group and the discussion

Laissez-Faire: Discussion-oriented, “anything goes”; the leader maintains minimum control of the group and the discussion

Some things to keep in mind:

One leadership style isn’t better than another; however, one style may be more optimum than another in a particular setting.

You will naturally prefer one leadership style over another. However, you may need to adjust your leadership style to better serve a group or depending on the setting.

The leadership styles that work best within the framework of a discipleship-oriented group are the authoritarian and democratic leadership styles.

Are You Committed To The Two Sides Of Mission?

by | , , , , , ,

Are you committed to the two sides of Mission?
The theology of mission has two sides. If you lead a group or ministry, understanding these
will help you be more effective at what God has given you to do.

The two sides of mission are:
going out and attracting in To go out and proclamation. We are inviting. People to join us in Christian space., such as. Our churches, groups, homes., etcetera. It also involves the proclamation About. Jesus., and that proclamation is made. Through our words, character, and lifestyles.

To attract in. Involves. What your group or ministry is like?. What do people experience? Who
take you up on your invitation to join you in Christian space? So your group must be
spiritually attractional, Which involves at least four things:

1. Be hospitable. You should at the very least be a friendly group. People shouldn’t have
to work. Hard. To break in. And feel like they belong.

2. Be authentic. Fakey Christians, pretense, hypocrisy, appearing like you have it all together – the perfect everything, etc. NONE of that is attractive to anyone. Ever.

3. Pray together. Let people pray for others and let them experience the presence and move of the Holy Spirit for themselves through prayer! If you, as the leader, do all the praying, they miss out on that experience.

4. Learn about God. Make the Word of God preeminent in the group. Let them hear God
talk through His Word. Let their minds dwell on it while in your group. The Word of God
is compelling and transformative.

If we stay invested in the “going out” and “attracting in ”of mission, we will help to change
the world by helping people to change!
