In Other Words

Why Should Anyone Be Led By You?

Ever thought about that question before? Everyone is a leader because everyone has at least one person in their life they influence. It might be your children, your employees, your spouse or your students, but everyone has at least somebody they influence - either for good or bad.

But WHY should anyone be led by you? What is it about you that should make people want to follow you?

Is it...

... your position of authority: You're the boss, therefore they have to follow you! You're the parent, therefore they have to listen!

... your experience: You are an expert in your field therefore people come to you because you've been doing it for a long time.

... your character: You're worth following because of your integrity and honor.

... your vision: People follow you because they believe in where you're taking the company, where you're taking the marriage, where you're taking your small group.

... your faith: You have an unusual trust in God that others find inspirational.

... your money: You have the most money among many of your friends therefore you are perceived to be successful.

Why is it that anyone should be led by you? Well, this is really a question of what is at the heart of leadership? What makes a great leader?

At Grace Point we're presenting an opportunity for men to gather around this issue of leadership and look into our own lives to see how we're doing with it. What drives us? What are our hang-ups? What should we be doing at home, work & the church?

If you are interested in talking about leadership within the safety of a group of men on the journey with you, then the informational meeting this Sunday, August 15th right after church is for you. We'll meet for 15 minutes to talk about a leadership program we'd like to start in the fall.

You might not feel like a leader - but you are. You might wish you weren't a leader - but you can't stop it from happening. We all have positions of influence with friends, family and co-workers and the only question that remains is what kind of leader are you developing into? Or, "why should anyone be led by you?"

Looking forward to the conversation on Sunday,


Pastor Tim

Join us as we come together as a community of faith to pray and seek God's leading in our midst for 2012. Four prayer gatherings are planned for Jan. 19, 26, 31 and Feb. 7. All begin at 7pm and will end around 8pm.

These prayer gatherings are not designed to pray for safety and health for us, but rather for courage and discernment in following God's leading as we seek to allow the message of the gospel to transform us and our community.

Hope to see you there.

Hundreds of years ago a movement began. It's a movement that has continued to grow, expand and develop to this very day. It has touched the lives of nearly everyone on the planet. You might be a part of it.

Join us as we explore the stories of the early adopters of this movement and see what happens when passion ignites a movement.

"The Movement" - Sunday mornings beginning at 10:00 am.
