Salvation: Forgiveness According to God’s Standard
The security of salvation depends on whose work it ultimately is. We might fumble, but God remains faithful.

Relationship: Life According to God’s Priorities
You must flourish as a disciple before you succeed as a minister. Certain relationships are vital for the long-term health of your ministry.

Discipleship: Growth According to God’s Description
Christians understand the importance of discipleship, but few actively practice it. We need to move beyond ministry programs and prioritize personal disciple-making.

Companionship: Care According to God’s Compassion
A local church is supposed to function as a faith family, assisting one another thoroughly. Without a clear organization for how to do so, many needs will remain unmet.

Apprenticeship: Development According to God’s Template
Apprenticeship is necessary for a ministry to maximize its ability to accomplish God’s agenda. While the process takes time and effort, it will ultimately multiply the work.

Workmanship: Service According to God’s Giftings
A church must have a clear process of its members receiving training and continuing ministry. If people can serve according to God’s giftings, the church will be blessed.
