The third dynamic to ensure that community gatherings will lead to authentic life change and ministry effectiveness is to motivate response toward God and others. Listen to podcast interview (part three) in our resource section.
· Why responding in trust and obedience is important - Hebrews 10:24, James 1:23-25 A community must spur each other on toward maturity. If we merely discuss the truth and do not do what it says, we become hypocrites and deceive ourselves.
· How to facilitate responsiveness toward God and others - Phil. 3:12-14, Ps 51:12-13 I’ve given you two questions that help make action steps very personal and specific.
1. What is God calling us to do in relationship to Him and others?
2. How do I invite others to respond toward God in a more restful and risky way?
· Find a friend this week and discuss issues of your heart and how you want to make movement toward God and others. Pray together for the help of the Holy Spirit as you do this.
· Haven for the Heart has a two step strategy where we help leaders experience a haven for their hearts and become equipped to be a haven for the hearts of others. We hope that you and your spouse or ministry team will take advantage of a Haven for the Heart retreat. During a Haven for the Heart retreat we will cover in further detail each of the 3 dynamics of the CPR process.
