THE RHYTHMS OF THE good fatheR AND HIS leadership

Picture
Become a member of the Servant Initiative.
“We seldom see Jesus and God the Father in the same way. Many see the Father as this while-haired old man sitting somewhere on a cosmic rock, very irritated and looking for some human being to zap. Then many people feel that Jesus comes along and says, “I know Dad has moods, so you stick with me and I will get things for you.” This split view between Jesus and God the Father cannot be accurate.” Here we will take a hard look at the Nature of the Father and fix the broken Cultural narrative!

THE RHYTHMS OF the Spirit in Leadership

Picture
Become a member of the Servant Initiative.
“Surely, if you love God, you will want to have everything happening in your life that God wants for you. This will certainly mean having the overflow or filling or baptism that marks the presence of the Holy Spirit. The question: Is this available for us today? Maybe you have begun to long for this lifestyle. However, in the event you feel as yet unimpowered, let me offer a simple approach to the overflow of the Holy Spirit. God responds to the hungry, seeking heart. He does not wish to force himself upon us. We hear his voice and we choose to follow him. (John 10) There is no other way.”

WHAT SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP SHOULD LOOK LIKE

Picture
Become a member of the Servant Initiative.
Servant ​Leadership that lasts is all about love.
“If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge,and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. Love is patient, love is kind… (1 Corinthians 13:1-4)

a handbook for
​servant leadership

Picture
Become a member of the Servant Initiative.
“No thought, no philosophy, no chosen lifestyle, and no technology approaches the incredible impact and influence that Jesus renders in our life. It is much more than the thought of Jesus or the concept of “the Christ,” Rather it is the reality of him as a human person and that as God he shapes and guides every facet of our lives and fiber of our being. The choice to follow Jesus with the resulting discovery of his present, personal reality and the truth of Scripture is the wisest, greatest, most effective decision that anyone can make in life.” This Handbook is a comprehensive deep dive into actively pursuing the rhythm and nature of Jesus as an outflow in our daily living.

We also provide it through events, conferences, retreats. and Zoom meetings.

ME AND MY
​SHADOW

Picture
Become a member of the Servant Initiative.
We are all shadowed by an illusory person or false self, Thomas Merton says; We devote ourselves to this false self, which is the root of sin. Our Shadow Self wants to live outside of God’s will. It’s a self that’s built on lies like “I can make myself happy... I can make myself great... I can be my own master... I don’t need to depend only on God's love.” 
The Shadow Self is an imposter ego that hides from us and our God-created and Christ-redeemed self. Our true self is meant to be loved and transfigured in the light of God’s glory. We discover this in the radiant face of Christ (2 Corinthians 3:17-18).

BECOMING A 
FOOT WASHER

Picture
Become a member of the Servant Initiative.
As He calls His rag-tag team of unconventional leaders together only hours away from the Cross, the commandment He gives them is not a commandment to be more zealous, more dedicated, more cultural, to be more polished or refined, or more committed. The commandment He stresses so emphatically is that they love each other, for by this, He would say, all men would truly know they were His disciples (John 13:35). Before He gives this teaching to them, however, Jesus sets the stage by being an example for them as He washes their feet. And in the example He sets for His disciples, I see four key factors which, I believe, will help you and me to carry out the commandment to love one another.

THE POWER OF
​THE UNDER ROWER

Picture
Become a member of the Servant Initiative.
The word huperetes is one of the more unusual words for servant in the Greek language. The word huperetes means under-rower. The word originally referred to a rower on board a trireme or a war-galley. It later came to refer to someone who performed hard labor. Paul used this particular word when he wrote to the Corinthian believers.

“So then, men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the secret things of God” (1 Cor. 4:1).

In this module we will discover the powerful unseen workings of the under rower!

THE ART OF
​NET MENDING

Picture
Sample from the Servant Initiative
Jesus was the greatest net mender of all time! He blows apart every idea I have about spirituality and servant ministry. In so doing He sets us all free from the burdens and baggage of grumpiness and condemnation, of fear and intimidation. Revisit Jesus—this laid-back lover of people whose intensity was private and personal, who didn’t put pressure on people. Reacquaint yourself with the Friend of sinners, the Man who spoke gracious words continually, who healed unconditionally, who loved sacrificially, who was the great net mender—for although He is unrecognized by most religious people, He alone defines what it looks like to live in holiness and at the same time be a servant to all!
