Leading From The Middle

Follow Me

I have spent my whole life in the faith world, and in that time, I have heard hundreds of messages on following Jesus, and I have heard just as many on fishing for men. What I have rarely heard are messages that are focused on the middle four words.

“Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Matthew 4:19

Fortifying Hope: God's Mission

Last week we were encouraged not to lose our confidence in the goodness of God because when we do, the enemy is coming for our hope. This week, let's consider together that when we lose confidence in or drift from the mission of God - our hope is the next to fall. Without hope, all strength goes away.

Leverage What We Have

The first thing on our list of what leaders leverage is what we possess. When I say this, often people look at me like I shouted something important in a different language, and they cannot figure out what I mean. Let me help; when I say what do you possess, I actually mean - “What you have.”

Go

So, our 4GENetwork word of the day is “go.” According to the dictionary, the word means “to move or proceed” and “to leave a place; depart.” You could also use it when saying that you’re taking a risk, like “I’ll have a go at it.” I know it’s not as exciting a snollygoster, but consider the impact that moving, proceeding, leaving, and risking can have. This little two-letter word actually has a lot of power, doesn’t it?
