Want to turn your congregation from spectators into preachers?

Learn to build your team, train and empower your devotees, and monitor your progress in establishing sustainable preaching projects. We discuss the four functions of a leader, the three pillars of trust, the three types of power, and explore the synergy of teamwork and cooperative effort. Also: how to see potential, make new devotees, care for newcomers, and leave everyone with a good impression. Happy devotees are the most attractive element in our outreach.
