117. Raising teams across the land, Part 2

Listen Later

As we listen to episodes from our Launch gathering in Melbourne, we continue the second of a two podcast series with Roger, Praxeis New Zealand leader as he shares on building teams in the West. 

Roger continues sharing stories of how he has sought to see teams birthed.

Principles of forming team
  • We’re to expect opposition when we start teams.
  • How we operate as a team is what we’ll reproduce.
  • Teams need to have a culture of learning. 
  • Work with what you’ve got. Don’t wait until you have what you think you need.
  • God’s word not our experiences is what teaches us to build teams.
    • Challenges we face when building teams
    • We’re fighting apathy and indifference.
    • When confronting a religious spirit we’re realising we don’t need permission for mission.
    • Individualism is always counter to team. We need to catch God’s vision together. 
      • How to multiply teams?

      “We are to see fruit on other people’s trees”

      • Catalysing DMM is like scaffolding, it’s temporary and isn’t flash. 
      • Being anonymous is key.
      • We know the fruit in the harvest is diverse and doesn’t grow on just one tree. So we need multiple teams for the many affinity groups around us. 
        • What’s Jesus calling us to lay down? 
        • Teams need to be more committed to the King’s mission and purpose than our own individual callings and gifts. Instead of recruiting, we need to allow God to engineer team formation.
          • Final words encouragement

          How do we counter the spirit of apathy, indifference, distractions and individualism? Being obedient and staying in the game despite our weaknesses and lacks. All roads lead back to prayer. Fervent, focused, passionate, sustained prayerful workers will see teams form and multiply.
