The document discusses empowered Christian leadership and the importance of keeping God at the forefront. It explores how the author has seen Jesus as a leader and how this class strengthened that view. It then discusses three key aspects of leadership: sacrificing for God, building a winning team with integrity and communication skills like Jesus' disciples, and leading by example as the author's grandfather did. The conclusion reiterates that answering God's call requires sacrifice, teamwork, and exemplary leadership.
This is the first part of a series we are doing about faith development at Cafechurch Melbourne (www.cafechurch.org), largely based on John J Shea's book "Finding God Again." We want to be adults, with fully functional adult faith, but how do we go about it? This session is about the God of the superego with which we start our journey. These images of God aren't wrong exactly, but they become increasingly inadequate, and as we develop, we need to develop more adequate notions of God.
In the second of our series on faith development at Cafechurch Melbourne (www.cafechurch.org) , based largely on John J Shea's book "Finding God Again", we talk about the transformation of our ideas of God from those of the Superego God to the Living God, a God as Thou, God of Love, God of Mystery, God of Freedom and God of Community.

Check what the Holy Quran says --
[9:71] “The Believers, men and women, are protectors one of another: they enjoin the ma`roof (all of Islam), and forbid the munkar (all that is evil; kufr): they observe regular prayers, pay Zakat, and obey Allah and His Messenger. On them will Allah pour His mercy: for Allah is Exalted in power, Wise.”

“So What?” – Insights from the Course
This course has certainly challenged me on multiple levels. First, when reading the book Why Don’t We Listen Better, written by Dr. James Peterson (2015). I was so convicted on my arrogance of not being an intentional listener. Peterson’s book reinforces a paradigm on the importance of listening. It’s not about getting the last word in, or winning the argument that is paramount. The necessity of being a good listener will have far reaching impacts to those around us. Too many times, society is placing value and priority on the loudest voice, when influence over others can truly be achieved by just learning the skill of listening. I am now making a commitment to continue the process of becoming a better listener. As the leader of an organization, I have always felt that leadership required a voice of direction in order to be successful, but in reality, my influence and effectiveness as a husband, father, and pastor will reach incredible new heights with a commitment to actively engage in communication through listening.
Like Louise Smith, the first lady of racing, I too have had a few proverbial bones broken on the journey to get where I am today. God has most certainly broken me down so that He could build me up and transform me into the man of God that I need to be for myself and others.
· One area of concern that I continually have to keep submitted to God in prayer is self-esteem.
. Mine would be humility. Perhaps this is the result of practicing secular counseling, but I seem to rush off to formulaic conclusions. But people aren't mathematical equations, are they? No, they are uniquely minted by God, individual in His eyes. Sometimes I have difficulty remembering this, that not all answers are found in textbooks.
· According to Dr. Tim Clinton and Ron Hawkins (2009), “self-esteem refers to an inner sense of worthiness that gives a person resilience and resistance to attack or criticism” (p. 214).
· Low self-esteem has attempted to manifest itself in various ways over my lifespan, usually induced by an old spirit of rejection from past hurts and heartbreaks.My “I” type personality profile asserts that I tend to think people expect me to be perfect (Carbonell, 2008, p. 40) and this could be the puzzling part of my personality that keeps me awake at night. Dr. Ken Nichols in his book Masterpiece writes, “a negative self-image produces a wide variety of problems” (2017, p. 23). Yet another topic I struggle with in conventional/secular therapy, as the subjective indicator of too much self-esteem is typically categorized as grandiosity. But what if someone is simply confident in themselves?
“What’s Best Next?”
Although society constantly assesses our value (Clinton & Hawkins, p. 215) that does not mean I have to allow those values to determine my worth or fight to uphold those values, especially if they do not align with what God has already said in His word about me. .

THE RELEVANCE OF SPIRITUAL GROWTH GROUP DYNAMICS IN SPIRITUAL FORMATION OF GR...Celia Munson, BCCC
Small groups are diverse in the way they are done. Spiritual growth group dynamics is well matched with developing and challenging growing believers for genuine spiritual formation and transformation, leading to Christ- likeness. Effective use of spiritual growth group dynamics is a useful aid in developing mature believers who can effectively interact within the larger Christian community. Considering the problem that the church has had with spiritual formation of adults, groups utilizing the structure of growth groups and focus on spirituality should be a key part of the answer.

So What”What problem, perspective, paradigm, or perplexing peo.docxrosemariebrayshaw
“So What?”
What problem, perspective, paradigm, or perplexing people puzzle keeps you awake at night? In what way has the Holy Spirit used course materials to address a piece of junk?
While choosing Bruce as my care seeker, I didn’t realize I would identify myself. Much like Bruce when tragedy strikes, there is strong possibility that I would block everything and everyone out, only to focus on what I may feel is important. I have created distance with my family members at times I should have been drawing closer and loving them more. Something I took into consideration is Kollar’s (2015) “Do Something Different.” If what you are doing is not working, stop doing it and do something different. Sometimes we all get into unhealthy habits (Kollar, 2015). Now I wouldn’t say that this issue has kept me up at night, but I have put so much of this perspective into work, that it has brought me out of a loner’s space. Another great aspect that proves the holy spirit is working and through course material, is the acknowledgement of God always being active. There are capabilities within the counselee that God has already revealed in his past that will help him effectively manage a specific problem in a way that is pleasing to God (Kollar, 2015). This is the reminder that God is always with me no matter what stage I am in my life. Psalms 139:23-24 says, “Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts!” 24 “And see if there be any grievous ways in me and lead me in the way everlasting!” (ESV)
“Whats Best Next?”
Self-Care: Self-Care can be hard for any person but most difficult for those who take care of others. Some may even think that having others take care of them is just enough. Self-care consist of taking care of yourself mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Resting is an act of faith. We rest because God says we should/can. Trust that He will continue to work and take care of things even as we are resting (Our Hearts Journal, 2012). One of my greatest worries is when I stop everything stops. Once I realized that God will always handle the beginning and the ending, rest will become inevitable. I love this revelation from Peterson (2015), “In the presence of thera-noxious folks, we feel less healthy and secure.” Although others may never acknowledge this factor about therapeutic people, the fact that we acknowledge that feeling, leaves us with the responsibility to take care of ourselves.
Self and Securing Relationships: Relationships and community is one of the healthiest aspects to a healthy life. A counselee should always feel safe and secure when encountering a counseling session or group counseling session. Working in the church community mostly, safety and security are most important. Most individuals see ministry leaders as one of the main resources for help when searching. A minister should make referrals for two reasons: (1) to provide the church member or counselee with competent care and (2) to safeguard 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.

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…

Empowered Leader and the Christian Worldview
Christian Faith for Business Leaders –September 19, 2014
Sändra Olivarez
2. Empowered Leader and the Christian Worldview 2
Introduction
I have always viewed Jesus as a leader in my life, and this class has only
strengthened my opinion in that matter. I believe God places people in our lives for
a reason a season or a lifetime. Each of these people has a purpose to bring us
closer to the plan He has in store for us, but Jesus was sent to be our Savior. When
we are in a position of leadership, it is most important that we keep God at the
forefront of everything we do. When answering a higher calling to lead a purposeful
life for Jesus, we may need to sacrifice, build a winning team, and we must lead by
example. These three things resonate with me as our Christian Faith for Business
Leaders class comes to an end. Each of these is important as we venture out into
the world and grow in our relationship with God. I would like to share my own
personal experiences with each of these.
Learning to sacrifice
“I'd denied the truth so long I was unable to recognize what was really happening.
The abuse had started subtly and grown insidiously.” Gwyneth Nelson’s words in her
article entitled My Abusive “Christian” Marriage are all too familiar. The story
Nelson shares with her readers reminds me so much of my own.
In my early twenties, I found myself in an abusive “Christian” marriage. Initially I
determined that it was better to sacrifice my own happiness if it meant my children
would have both parents. Besides, I was Christian and Christian’s are not supposed
to get divorced. It was a very difficult time in my life. Eventually the abuse got so
bad that I turned it all over to God. I prayed to God, and for the first time in years
felt a sense of peace come over me. I realized God was not asking me to sacrifice
my happiness, but rather to sacrifice my own beliefs and trust in Him that His plan
was the best plan. I took a leap of faith and filed for divorce. In Danni Moss’ article,
Blessing for the Ultimate Sacrifice in an Abusive Marriage, the message she shares
really reverberates my own experience. “For me, the single biggest step of faith I
ever made was believing God when He told me to get out of my marriage and follow
Him. It was a daring, blind step of audacious faith – and it came at huge expense. I
did lose friends, family, church support, my identity, my role as a wife, my home and
financial security (such as they were), and the respect of others. But, I dared to
believe what God told me,” says Moss. The sacrifice God asked me to make ended
up being the biggest blessing in disguise for my children and myself. There is no
question that in the end, the benefits by far outweighed the cost. God definitely
blessed our lives in ways I never imagined He would. The best way to sum up it all
up, “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” (Psalm 147:3) We
must remember that we have to sacrifice something to gain something more
valuable.
3. Empowered Leader and the Christian Worldview 3
Building a Winning Team
“A team should operate as a mosaic whose unique strengths and differences convert
into a powerful united force.” –Glenn Llopis
My high school basketball coach used to chant “TEAM: Together Everyone Achieves
More!” Her focus was always centered round building us up to be a better team.
This leaves me contemplating what qualities I look for in my own team? I can
narrow it down to four qualities that I believe to be critical. They are Integrity,
Open-Mindedness, Responsibility, and Communication Skills. These same
characteristics align closely with those of Jesus’ disciples.
Integrity is defined by Dictionary.com as “adherence to moral and ethical
principles; soundness of moral character; honesty.” Integrity I believe to be the
most important quality any person may possess. “Do to others as you would
have them do to you.” (Luke 6:31) This verse in Luke reminds me of someone
who would be honest, dependable, trustworthy, humble and sincere and would
always do the right thing, even knowing that no one is watching.
Open-Mindedness is defined by Dictionary.com as “having or showing a mind
receptive to new ideas or arguments, unprejudiced; unbigoted; impartial.” This
quality, I believe is critical when working with a diverse team. In the business
world we often hear the term diversity of thought, which really goes hand in
hand with being open-minded.
Responsibility is defined by Dictionary.com as “the state or fact of being
responsible, answerable, or accountable for something within one's power,
control, or management.“ Without responsible individuals on a team, things
may be left unfinished, or deadlines could be missed. An individual who is
responsible can be trusted to do what they need to when they need to without
being told to do so.
Communication Skills are defined by Dictionary.com as “a person who
communicates, especially one skilled at conveying information, ideas, or policy
to the public.” The ability to communicate effectively is highly appreciated and
very important. Not everyone is a good communicator, but having at least one
person on the team that is, may be critical to a team’s success.
In the book of Matthew, we read “In the same way, let your light shine before
others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in
heaven.” (Matthew 5:16) The characteristics we have just reviewed: Integrity,
Open-Mindedness, Responsibility, and Communication align with those we see in
the apostles of Jesus. Each of Jesus disciples had rather diverse backgrounds with
values and qualities that communicate and connect in their own ways to different
communities. This diversity of thought affords the disciples the ability to engage
many. Ideally, I would like to mimic Jesus’ leadership qualities because ultimately,
following Him in all things glorifies God. I would like my gifts and talents to
4. Empowered Leader and the Christian Worldview 4
accomplish just that. I can’t think of a better way to do so, then by forming teams
that will help to achieve good in our world.
Leadership: Leading by Example
“Live so that when your children think of fairness, caring, and integrity, they think of
you.” – H. Jackson Brown, Jr. These words of wisdom were placed on my
grandfather’s heart at an early age. He was a great man of integrity. He was a true
servant of the Lord who always led by example and kept his word. Although he
passed away a few years ago, his spirit still lives on in everything we do. I believe
that God placed my Grandfather in my life, for a reason. He has helped to shape the
person I have become simply by just being himself and leading by example.
In the book of Matthew, we learn that oaths are to be sacred – a lesson my
Grandfather stressed during my childhood. “…Do not break your oath, but keep the
oaths you have made to the Lord.” (Matthew 5:33) “Simply let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’
and your ‘No,’ ‘No…’” (Matthew 5:37) He taught us that keeping our word (or not)
tells a story of our character. This gave me a sense of responsibility, if I say I am
going to do something, I do it without making excuses. My grandfather was a man
who loved God with all his heart, and set such a great example for us to learn from
and follow. Much like Jesus teachings, my Grandpa taught us to take care of others
first and in return God would take care of us.
Conclusion
In conclusion, having recognized Jesus as a leader in my own life for years, the
material covered in this class has only solidified that viewpoint for me. I also believe
God places people in our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. Each individual
will play a role in the life God has chosen for us. As a leader, it is important that we
keep God at the forefront of everything we do. When answering a higher calling to
lead a purposeful life for Jesus, we may need to sacrifice, build a winning team, and
we must lead by example. These three things are so important as we are setting
others and ourselves up for success and venturing out into the world to grow in our
relationship with God. Godspeed.
