Ideas shared by Bro Heng Kee

·         Ideal Group

o   Clear Objective

o   Safe Environment

o   Bonding & Accountability

·         Start where you are (what’s God vision for you? How you see God fit into your life?) and I will journey with you as long as you want to go.

·         My non-negotiable (compass within your heart)

o   Application -> Multiplication

o   Prayers

o   Expose to world vision

o   Relationship <-> Accountability

o   Modelling/Leading with example

·         The way people learn determines how you teach/impact lives

·         Change the learning style to suit your members so that it will be fun as well

·         How to lead a small group

o   Setting the proper climate (atmosphere of anticipation, climate of care, temperature of trust, spirit of serving)

o   Key actions of good group leaders (listen -> answer, silent -> think, clarify, involve all members, respect)

·         Collaborate

o   Discuss/Decide on the roles of disciple/discipler

o   Share (learn from one another)

·         Members also need to take responsibility (mentoring – if my disciples not wanting to take up any responsibilities so I will not start)

Good Reminders

·         Discipleship-making is not the communication of information, but a reproduction of a life. We don’t teach someone to know what we know. Rather, we teach them to become what we are.
