If you missed our free live-streamed event with Mindy Caliguire last week, we won’t hold it against you. We had a great time discussing the vital need as leaders to lean into God every day, and lean off of yourself. Are you taking care of your own heart? Are you a disciple as well as a discipleship leader?
Here are three of the top take-aways reported by the attendees:
1. Only out of the overflow can we care for a congregation.
“This is a constant thing so I need to daily give myself this reminder — maybe even at multiple times of the day. I lean into God already but it’s easy to neglect it and sort of float on my own.”
“The cost of following Jesus in ministry ISN’T to be the diminishing of our own soul.”
2. Expectations need to be negotiated and renegotiated when changing paradigms, not from an adversarial, but a teaching/shepherding/guiding point of view!
“I will need to come back to this when necessary conversations come up relating to this.”
“Our adversary is not the board, the senior pastor, etc… God has made a way for transformation to happen through intercessory prayer.”
Which brings us to…
3. Find intercessors immediately.
“We need to wisely tap into intercessors.”
“I will need to pray about who and how to get better at this.”
And what was the #1 next action planned by DiscipleOn! members and guests?
Lead a rebellion! With the mindset of a rebel – lead for transformation yet with the determination to not allow our own souls to be neglected.
A new session of DiscipleOn! starts in February!
