How to Encourage and Equip Volunteer Teachers and Small Group Leaders...

Jesus Christ is the master teacher. The testimonies of those who actually sat under his teaching ring loud and clear concerning his teaching genius:
“The crowds were astonished and overwhelmed with bewildered wonder at His teaching.” —Matthew 7:28
“They were astonished and filled with glad amazement at His teaching.” —Matthew 23:33
“The entire multitude was struck with astonishment at His teaching.” —Mark 11:18
“The great mass of people heard Jesus gladly—listening to Him with great delight.”—Mark 12:37
Astonished, overwhelmed, bewildered, wonder, amazement, glad and great delight are the words used to describe the teaching of Jesus.

How would those you teach honestly describe your teaching?

The Teaching Genius of Jesus is a concise study of the greatest teacher ever to grace the planet—Jesus! In this book, you'll explore how you can become a P-E-A-C-H of a teacher...

* Preparation

BONUS: Each chapter ends with an application section filled with practical, biblical discussion questions you can use in your next teachers' meeting.

PLUS, you get a FREE bonus chapter titled, "Re-Egineering Your Christian Education Ministry" that includes sample exit goals for each age group in the church.

Would you like to learn the art and skill of teaching from the best teacher ever? Buckle your seatbelt, because if you dare to apply what you learn from Jesus in this book, you will be revolutionized as a teacher. And this is where the revolution must start—with you the teacher!

How YOU Should Use this Book with All the Volunteer Teachers and Small Group Leaders in Your Church/Ministry... 

2. Have them read a chapter at home and encourage them to make notes in the book as they read.

3. Come together as a group...

         the chapter for personal and group application.
    c. Ask them to pair up and pray for each other.

4. Over the coming months, work through each chapter of the book (P-E-A-C-H) as outlined above.

You've known for a long time that the volunteers who serve in ministry with you need this kind of encouragement and equipping.

This four-session disciplemaking training experience takes you to the very heart of disciplemaking friendships that flourish and multiply. It's an exploration of how to live the "one-another" verses as found in the Bible. This will NOT be a lecture or a passive  workshop. Expect fun, thought-provoking interactions, encouragement, and God-directed transformation that you'll be able to apply to your life and ministry immediately. Bring your Bible and your framily (friends and family). Each person receives a training manual  and  a One Another Living Guide for taking what you learn back to those where you live, work, play, and church. Y ou'll encounter these four sessions: *  Session 1  (Thursday PM, September 5 th, 6-8 PM ) No Relationships = No Ministry;  Know Relationships = Know Ministry An out-of-the-box learning experience will get us started and explain why relationships are the heart of ministry—and God’s mode of operation for impacting and c...

If video above doesn't appear, go here . So many people trying to find friendship and community. Here's a thought.

As a general rule, I try to take all of my questions to Jesus and the Bible.  So, how did Jesus "build" community?   This is where I invite you to do your own study on how Jesus used meals to connect with people. At a minimum, you could quickly search " Jesus eating. " What can we say with certainty about Jesus and eating in the Bible? It seems that Jesus enjoyed eating meals with all sorts of people—and the meal wasn't about the food—it was how Jesus connected with people. Can you think of a better way to connect with people? Perhaps this is why Paul lists "hospitality" as a requirement for all leaders in the church (1 Timothy 3:...
