PLANTING MISSIONAL CHURCHES (part2)


2. Takes personal responsibility
Let’s read the whole of Nehemiah 2:18
“They said, ‘we’re with you. Let’s get started.” They rolled up their sleeves, ready for the good work.”

# Church planting teams members are people who make the connection between the big vision (the walls must be restored) and what they can do (their personal responsibility). Church planting team members are people who have their sleeves rolled up, ready to play their part!

If you flick over to Chapter 3 you will see paragraph after paragraph describing individuals and small teams who took ownership of the vision to see the walls restored and gave themselves (blood, sweat and tears) to seeing a part of that dream fulfilled!

# Don’t be overwhelmed by the magnitude of the vision, ask God what part you can play in fulfilling it, roll your sleeves up and get stuck in!
