After observing churches that have effectively used Sunday school in a strategic way, Ken Hemphill shares with us the top ten practices. Practice #3: "Build Kingdom Leaders."
As pastors and church leaders, we must build Kingdom leaders who are committed to Sunday school strategy as an expression of faithfulness to Christ, His church, and the mission mandate He has given us by...
- Praying for God to call out leaders for kingdom service through Sunday school ministry.
- Implementing a leader-enlistment approach that focuses on helping people respond to their personal call from God rather than an approach that is primarily concerned with filling church or organizational positions.
- Enlisting leaders who themselves are committed to cultivating and multiplying new leaders.
- Devoting major attention to leadership meetings that focus on the mission, on relationships, and on Bible study.
- Providing training that equips leaders for their work and enhances the quality of their
leadership.
- Calling out people who will give their lives to evangelizing the lost and who are willing to participate in ongoing evangelism training and multiplication of evangelism leaders.
