Leading horizontally
You all signed up to lead small groups, because you have a passion for pouring into students. It’s that type of vertical leadership (you leading downward) that’s always going to be the strength of our ministry. Your hands on relationships with the students in your care is your primary responsibility in this ministry. However, as our ministry grows and changes, the leadership demands change as well. If we continue to lead the way we’ve always led and ignore change, then we’ll eventually crumble and squander the opportunities God has given us to influence students
That’s why I want to encourage you, in addition to leading vertically, to lead horizontally. That means not only leading students but also leading and spurring on the other leaders around you. Ministry, like most things in life, is better when you’re not doing it alone. Student ministry is tough, let’ s face it. And when there’s someone with you in the trenches helping you push forward, it makes it a little easier to take the next step. That’s what we want you to be for each other.
As a staff, we’ll try our best to lead this ministry well, but we need your help. Partner with other leaders to help bear each others burdens. Share ideas of how to connect with students. Coach up, in love, when you see someone coming up short. Encourage when you see another group succeeding. Don’t waste the leadership ability that God has given you, because our ministry will be at its strongest when we’re leading both vertically and horizontally.
The building will be open at 7:00 PM every week.
Fuse will start at…
October 2nd - 10:00 PM
October 9th - 10:00 PM
October 16th - 10:00 PM
October 23rd - 10:00 PM
October 30th - No Fuse (Instead, there will be a live CD recording at NewSpring on the Anderson Campus in the main auditorium.)
Now that you know the schedule, do everything you can to get your friends and others to Fuse on these nights. Football games are a huge opportunity to invite people, so load up your car with people at halftime or the end of the 3rd quarter and drive them them to Fuse!
Want free food at Fuse?
Don’t forget to tell people about The Jump Off. If you bring someone who’s never been to Fuse, both of you will get free pizza and drinks after Fuse. What’s stopping you from bringing someone new?
