Have you found yourself in a place reacting to things around you... or are you focusing your time & energy where God wants you... responding to His Call on your life?

5 reasons for Killing Cockroaches (reacting instead of responding):
by duregger at 10/29/2009 4:39:01 PM
1. settle for something that is not God's plan - Genesis 11-12
by duregger at 10/29/2009 4:39:17 PM
settle in places that are: comfortable, easy, pleasant, et cetera
by duregger at 10/29/2009 4:42:36 PM
take time to focus on God's call for your life, listen and do what He says, be obedient
by duregger at 10/29/2009 4:43:42 PM
after hearing from God... set expectations, by verbalizing clear and intentional vision.

2. Ministry will outgrow you - Acts 6
by duregger at 10/29/2009 4:47:02 PM
are your opinions becoming louder as you grow older?
by duregger at 10/29/2009 4:49:03 PM
are you doing the work of God, but not doing the work God called you to do?
by duregger at 10/29/2009 4:49:38 PM
Acts 6:7 - as a result of lifting the leadership lid, empowering the volunteers the church/influence grew.
by duregger at 10/29/2009 4:50:39 PM
in ministry we teach our young leaders how to lead but don't allow them to lead.
by duregger at 10/29/2009 4:53:22 PM
let young leaders fail, as it is a great way for them to learn to lead.

by duregger at 10/29/2009 4:57:41 PM
Parable of the Talents read through the perspective of the master not the servants...
by duregger at 10/29/2009 4:58:06 PM
encourage our young leaders with what we've entrusted them with.
by duregger at 10/29/2009 4:59:37 PM
Great leaders will lead your ministry if you focus on the execution instead of the outcomes.

5. Embrace fear and pride instead of humility - John 3:30
by duregger at 10/29/2009 5:05:13 PM
Tony is sharing a great story on embracing humility rather than fear and pride.
by duregger at 10/29/2009 5:09:51 PM
story has to do with a weed eater, his fear of all things mechanical, and number of #'s in the key of D.
by duregger at 10/29/2009 5:11:06 PM
John 3:30 - God must increase as we decrease, embrace humility as leaders or else pride will creep in... in the form of fear and anxiety
by duregger at 10/29/2009 5:12:21 PM
Tony's question for you: Do you wrestle with Pride or Do you wrestle with Fear? Either one takes us away from the ministry God has for us based in a posture of humility.
