Self-Sustained or God Sustained? by Mike Chong Perkinson One of the greatest struggles we face as leaders, for that matter as Christians, is that our fallen human nature, motivated by fear, causes us to lean upon ourselves and draw upon our own soul strength, upon our talent, gifts, knowledge, magnetism, eloquence or cleverness.
by Tom Johnston When it comes to ministry, we try so hard. We want to "make it happen," or "git `er done." While I admit hard work is part of ministry - and life in general - the most fruitful times we experience are the result of not our action alone, but rather when we are acting in concert with God. I call it being in the flow.
DENOMINATIONAL LEADERS TAKE NOTE! The Vista Pastoral Assessment tool is now complete and available online through our Trilogy Resources. That's right, after two-years of development and Beta testing with dozens of pastors around the country, Vista is available for use with pastors to help them in their personal and church development. Log in or subscribe to the Trilogy Resources now, and make sure to mark your calendar for Vista Assessment training in Phoenix and Manchester during 2008.
We have begun to set the schedule for our training events for next year. Check out what will be going on, and make sure to check back regularly for updates. It's going to be a fun year, so mark your calendar now!
As we rush towards the Christmas season, why not give a gift to Jesus and His kingdom by funding a church planting apprentice in the Philippines? Funding a year of training for just $250 is a way for you or your church to give beyond yourself, your family, and even your country.
Still not subscribed? Want more information or access to the Trilogy Rescources? Follow the linnk for more information. Our resources are available for $75 the first year and $50 each year following.
