Turning from Getting to Giving

We've got to help our groups turn the corner from 'Getting groups' to 'Giving groups.' We've got to stop just talking about reaching out to those around us and do it...us as leaders have to lead the way. Whether it's just taking the opportunity to sit next to someone you don't know in the dining hall or challenging your group to invite their neighbors to Real Life or taking someone with you when you share your faith, we've got to be others focused and help build that reality into the men and women we influence. Be creative! Every guy/girl is at a different spot in their relationship with Christ, but all need help in experiencing the joy of being used by God and serving him.

This is critical...there's no possability of giving every student a chance to hear the life changing message of Jesus Christ if we don't create disciples that are about telling others about Christ!

Here is the article we discussed in Leadership meeting last night if you missed it. Specifically the 3rd component...."Doing ministry together."
