Church Leadership Ingredients

Look beyond, gifting and training
To know their heart, motivation
A vessel, wholly dedicated?
Or tainted needing, more consecration?

Jesus finished, His atonement
Yet His ministry, was incomplete
Left His mission, disciple-making
We are commanded, to complete.

O how selfish, and sinful
We keep God’s Word within
Are not praying and sharing
With our world, so full of sin.

One-on-one, in small groups
Much time, mentoring, Jesus discipled
Equipped and trained, ‘how’ to obey
To reproduce, go make disciples.

So, be of good cheer
For Jesus has overcome
The world, the flesh and the devil
Know in Him, we have won.

Seem so few, will die to self
So ask Jesus, to start using
My life holy, be His witness
Disciple-making, reproducing.

Yet sadly, churches look at numbers
In the pews, or at home gazing
Churches failing, how to mentor
Evangelizing, disciple making.

To make disciples, who can battle
Train and teach, to keep obeying
Trained as ‘doers’, not just ‘hearers’
To multiply, disciple making.

For we are called, to follow Jesus
His Great Commission, go multiply
Learn to witness, make more disciples
Jesus is with us, He will supply.
