What Will You Do With Your 5 and 2?

The world of ministry is a tough and often long journey that seems to be getting more expansive and complicated than ever. There are new battles to fight every day. There never seems to be "ENOUGH"--resources, people, money, talent....dot..dot..dot. PLUS--there is ALWAYS someone who seems to be doing it better or is running ahead. This message will:
1. Provide 4 points that remind leaders that what God has given them is enough for what He has called them to do.
2. Prove that leaders need not strive, worry or compare to embrace the sweet words "WELL DONE GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT"!

When You're In Over Your Head

This is a presentation for “people helpers” - those who minister to the public. The goal is to help these helpers recognize symptoms that indicate they are in over their heads. It covers the disorders and entanglements they might face in this capacity and what to do if they are faced with this. It is not to diagnose or to teach clinical research but rather for them to see the warning signs and extricate themselves if necessary. Presented by Dinah Monahan
