Gospelling Life Together
by Dr. Tom Wood
Do you desire to be what God intended? Do you desire to have the life Jesus died and lives to give you? Have you given up with the traditional forms of a programmed approach to Christian growth? Jesus’ call of the Gospel is to follow him and as we follow, to invite others to follow him with us. Gospelling Life Together is intentionally involving and learning the Gospel Story and one another’s gospel story through focused discussions about each other’s Relational, Personal, Missional, and Spiritual life, in the context of regular, ongoing friendship, for a joyful, personal revolution that leads to deeper community and a God honoring, Jesus glorifying mission in this runaway world.
Gospel Coach
by Dr. Tom Wood & Scott Thomas
Many ministry leaders serving in churches find themselves overwhelmed, disillusioned, and depressed by the enormous and challenging task of leading and serving others. When leaders aren’t healthy, the result is often an unhealthy church. Leaders need someone to shepherd their soul so that they can then lead others to the Chief Shepherd, Jesus Christ. Every church leader―from fulltime ministers to volunteer leaders―needs a Gospel Coach who will come alongside them with words drawn from Scripture and godly wisdom, grounded in the gracious saving work of Jesus Christ, and presented in the context of a trusting relationship. Gospel coaching is an intentional relationship of skillful caring for others based on four ancient shepherding principles: 1) Know the sheep 2) Feed the sheep 3) Lead the sheep 4) Protect the sheep Gospel coaches inquire about the personal, spiritual, and missional aspects of a leader’s life in a loving yet focused manner, probing the heart for compulsive unbelief or selfish motivation, disobedience, and sin, leading them back to the Gospel through belief, repentance, and obedience..
