Having a sponsor and accountability partner is important for three main reasons: 1) it is biblically supported as iron sharpens iron, 2) it is a key part of recovery programs by keeping one honest and accountable, and 3) it guards against relapse by quickly confronting old behaviors. A sponsor should have completed their own recovery program, have a strong relationship with God, and be willing to listen without judgment while also providing confrontation when needed. The main differences between a sponsor and accountability partner are that a sponsor guides one through the full program and has completed it, while an accountability partner focuses more on specific accountability and can be at the same recovery level for encouragement.

Each month, COR strives to deepen one’s understanding of Gentle Teaching through the development of a monthly theme focusing on a particular aspect of a Culture of Gentleness.
In this guide I provide information and tools for people to ask and answer five basic questions to create and implement their plan. Each year, people make resolutions that don’t seem to stick. This is because they are short sighted and are not grounded in a longer term plan and direction for their life. My goal in this guide is to get people thinking and planning based on what you want they want out of their life in the future and setting goals and strategies now to get there.

Section 1
Week #1 h- Emotional Health Check-Up
“The emotionally unhealthy leader is someone who operates in a continuous state of emotional and spiritual deficit, lacking emotional maturity” and often substituting their “doing for God” in place of “being with God.” (Scazzero, EHL, 25) These leaders minister from an empty cup, rather than from an overflowing saucer.
1. Complete the assessment, “How Healthy Is Your Leadership?”
Use the following scale:
5 = Always true of me
4 = Frequently true of me
3 = Occasionally true of me
2 = Rarely true of me
1 = Never true of me
__5___ 1. I take sufficient time to experience and process difficult emotions such as anger, fear, and sadness.
_____ 2. I am able to identify how issues from my family of origin impact my relationships and leadership—both negatively and positively.
___5__ 3. (If married): The way I spend my time and energy reflects the value that my marriage—not ministry—is my first priority as a leader.
(If single): The way I spend my time and energy reflects the value that living out a healthy singleness—not ministry—is my first priority as a leader.
__5___ 4. (If married): I experience a direct connection between my oneness with Jesus and oneness with my spouse.
(If single): I experience a direct connection between my oneness with Jesus and closeness with my friends and family.
___4__ 5. No matter how busy I am, I consistently practice the spiritual disciplines of solitude and silence.
__4___ 6. I regularly read Scripture and pray in order to enjoy communion with God and not just in service of ministry tasks.
___1__ 7. I practice Sabbath—a weekly twenty-four-hour period in which I stop my work, rest, and delight in God’s many gifts.
__1___ 8. I view Sabbath as a spiritual discipline that is essential for both my personal life and my leadership.
___5__ 9. I take time to practice prayerful discernment when making ministry plans and decisions.
___4__ 10. I measure the success of planning and decision-making primarily in terms of discerning and doing God’s will (rather than exclusively by measures such as attendance growth, excellence in programming, or expanded impact in the world).
___4__ 11. With those who report to me, I consistently devote a portion of my supe.

The Interview
Discovering
Difference: and
Working Toward
Understanding
T
In this interview you work to understand another human
being by developing a receptive and welcoming attitude toward your interviewee. You
will review the principles of CMM as you understand them, keeping in mind that this
interview is designed to help you create a positive social world with another person who is
different from you. Two things to keep in mind from CMM are to listen in a way that makes
others want to speak to you, and to speak in a way that makes others want to listen to
you.
You will also make use of Politeness Theory as you speak and listen in such a way as to
maintain the “face” of another human being, that is, the self-respect that person has for
him or herself and treating that person with dignity. Recognize that we all want to be
liked, admired, appreciated and approved. Respond to the other with empathy and
compassion.
Work toward having that “authentic dialog” mentioned by Paolo Freire. This means
regarding the other person as a genuine subject. Finally, you will complete the “praxis” as
Freire defines it, by not only acting through the interview, but by reflecting upon it at the
conclusion.

Action/Reflection
You do not have to ask all of these questions. These are
just to prompt you to go forward. These, however, are
good questions and should elicit some deep and
meaningful dialog. Here are some sample questions you
might ask your interviewee:
Key Scenes
1. Please describe a scene, episode, or moment in
your life that stands out as a really positive
experience.
2. In reviewing your life, is it possible to find key
moments that stand out as turning points for you.

in your entire life.
3. Could you detail a positive childhood memory
from your early years as a child. Please describe
this in detail. What happened, where and when
did it happen, who was involved, and what were
you thinking and feeling? What does this memory
say about your life?
4. Vivid adult memory. Please identify one memory
that you have had as an adult, something
memorable or vivid that happened to you in your
adult years. Please describe this in detail.
5. Wisdom event. Find an event in your life where you
displayed wisdom. This could be a time in which
you acted or interacted in an especially wise way
or provided wise counsel, or advice, made a wide
decision or otherwise behaved in a wise manner.
What happened, where and when, who was
involved, and what were you thinking and feeling.
What does this memory say about you and your
life?
6. Religious spiritual or mystical experience. Whether
you are religious or not, some people report they

sacred at one time or another in their lives., some
feeling of oneness with nature or the ...

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

Celebrate recovery lesson 8 addiction
1. Lesson 8
SPONSOR
Principle 4: Openly examine and confess my faults to myself, to God, and to someone I trust.
“Happy are the pure in heart.”
(Matthew 5:8)
Step 4: We made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
“Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord.” (Lamentations 3:40)
Think About It
You’ve heard the word “sponsor” for a few weeks now. I’m sure you have at least a vague idea of what a sponsor
is, but maybe you’re wondering why you even need one.
Why do I need a sponsor and/or an accountability partner?
There are three reasons why having a sponsor is vital.
Having a sponsor and/or accountability partner is biblical.
“Two are better off than one, because together thy can work more effectively. If one of them falls down, the other can help
him up. But if someone is alone…there is no one to help him… Two men can resist an attack that would defeat one man
alone.” (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12, GNB)
“As iron sharpens iron, one man sharpens another.” (Proverbs 27:17)
Having a sponsor and/or accountability partner is a key part of your recovery program.
Your recovery program has four key elements to success:
• To the best of your ability, maintain your honest view of reality as you work each principle. The best way to
ensure this is to have a sponsor and develop a strong accountability support team.
• Make recovery group meetings a priority in your schedule. Knowing that a sponsor or accountability partner will
be there to greet you or notice that you’re not there is an added incentive to attend.
• Maintain your spiritual program with Jesus Christ, through prayer, meditation, and studying His Word.
• Get involved in service, which includes serving as a sponsor (after you have completed all eight principles) or
accountability partner.
Having a sponsor and/or an accountability partner is the best guard against relapse.
By providing feedback to keep you on track, a sponsor and/or accountability partner can see your old
dysfunctional hurts, hang-ups, and habits beginning to return, and point them out to you quickly. He or she can confront
you with truth and love without placing shame or guilt.
What are the qualities of a sponsor?
“Though good advice lies deep within a counselor’s heart, the wise man will draw it out.” (Proverbs 20:5, TLB)
2. When you are selecting a possible sponsor, look for the following qualities:
1. Does his walk match his talk? Is he living by the eight principles?
2. Does she have a growing relationship with Jesus Christ?
3. Does he express the desire to help others on the “road to recover?”
4. Does she show compassion, care, and hope, but not pity?
5. Is he a good listener?
6. Is she strong enough to confront your denial or procrastinations?
7. Does he offer suggestions?
8. Can she share her current struggles with others?
What is the role of a sponsor?
1. She can be there to discuss issues in detail that are too personal or would take too much time in a meeting.
2. He is available in times of crisis or potential relapse.
3. She serves as a sounding board by providing an objective point of view.
4. He is there to encourage you to work the principles at your own speed. He does not work the steps for you!
5. Most important, she attempts to model the lifestyle resulting from working the eight principles.
6. A sponsor can resign or can be fired.
How do I find a sponsor and/or an accountability partner?
First, your sponsor or accountability partner MUST be of the same sex as you. After you have narrowed the field
down with that requirement, listen to people share. Do you relate to or resonate with what is spoken? Ask others in your
group to go out for coffee after the meeting. Get to know the person before you ask him or her to be your sponsor or
accountability partner!
If you ask someone to be your sponsor or accountability partner and that person says no, do not take it as a
personal rejection. Ask someone else. You can even ask for a “temporary” sponsor or accountability partner.
Ask God to lead you to the sponsor and/or accountability partner of His choosing. He already has someone in
mind for you.
What is the difference between a sponsor and an accountability partner?
A sponsor is someone who has completed the four participant’s guides. He or she has worked through the eight
principles and the 12 Steps. The main goal of this relationship is to choose someone to guide you through the program.
An accountability partner is someone you ask to hold you accountable for certain areas of your recovery or
issues, such as meeting attendance, journaling, and so forth. This person can be at the same level or recovery as you
are, unlike a sponsor, who should have completed the eight principles or 12 Steps. The main goal of this relationship is to
encourage one another. You can even form an accountability team of three or four.
The accountability partner or group acts as the “team,” whereas the sponsor’s role is that of a “coach.”
Questions:
1. Why is it important to have a support team?
2. What qualities are you looking for in a sponsor?
3. What is the difference between a sponsor and an accountability partner?
4. List the names and phone numbers of possible sponsors or accountability partners. These should be individuals
you have met on your “Road to Recovery” who have touched you in the sharing of their experiences, strengths,
and hopes.
