I really like the idea of environment, so much so that i seem to have developed a nickname around BCC as "Greenboy". love that! You can not express the importance of environment enough. Environment produces life or death, heath or sickness it's true in the physical as well as the spiritual. With that in mind I sat down and thought through what we need for the best possible environment within our groups. I will spend the next few weeks posting some thoughts on it.
1. An Environment of FAITH.
We must have an environment that believes God will do what He says He can do. Our groups have to be a place where members know they are surrounded with people that understand we serve a all powerful fully capable more than able God that has asked us to bring all of our concerns and burdens to Him. We have to model this in our lives as leaders and it will be a natural by-product in those we lead. Always remember more is caught than taught. Our groups have to be a place were we are willing to step out in faith with the understanding that it is not us but He who lives in us. We are unable to produce the miraculous but when connected to our source God, we are conduits of HIS power working according to HIS will all for HIS glory. I don't know about you but that seems pretty fun to me.
Faith is believing that what is unseen will become a reality because of HIS abilty.
