Shepherd Leaders Serve
By way of Introduction
In this Make Leaders Monthly, we are going to look at what leadership is, where it begins and how making disciple-makers starts by shepherd leaders serving.
Starting Discussion: What are the differences between a Pastor/Elder and a Leader?
Read 1 Timothy 1 and engage in a discussion on the big idea of this text and its practical implications and application through the lens of the gospel to us.
What is Leadership?
Could you give a definition of leadership?
Where do different fields of work develop their leadership definitions and leadership theory and practice?
How does Jesus change everything?
What does leadership look like in a church? And how ought leadership development look like in a ministry like Make Leaders?
Where does leadership development start for church leadership?
This month’s Leadership Papers (courtesy of the METRO Ministry Papers)
These papers were developed for a particular church and adapted for a ministry training platform, so they have intrinsic limitations. We will use them for Make Leaders Monthly discussion based leadership development across:
Shepherd Selection Course
Internships
Group Leaders
Team Leaders
