Axiom Chapter 4

Axiom—Chapter 4

Sheryll:
Once again, this chapter reinforces being a proactive rather than reactive ministry. For example, team leaders need to be expanding their teams NOW for the fall growth season.
The Church needs to be a shining example of the love of Jesus. When we aren’t prepared for those He sends through our doors, we do damage to His people. We, as leaders, need to always be thinking of not only this week and month, but next month and next year. We should:
Be:
God-oriented
People-oriented
Detail-oriented


Tony:
Chapter 4 is about being strategic. Being finishers and big picture people who get excited about lives being transformed and sustaining that transformation by being prepared.
Jesus teaches 4 laws of harvest:
1: See the harvest
2: Go into the harvest
3: Have the right tools for the harvest
4: Have a safe place to bring the harvest

This chapter is all about making sure we have #4 right. If we do the first 3 right and blow it on #4, we blow it and make all the hard work of no avail. It is not enough to be a great place to invite our friends, family and associates. We must make sure we are a great place for them to stay. That’s why the details are so important.
2 Corinthians 6:1 Message—“…Our work as God's servants gets validated—or not—in the details…”

Let’s hear your comments.
