House of Prayer Leadership with Brad Stroup

You can’t afford not to market; if no one knows that you are there then no one will come to your prayer meetings. In our modern context, promotion is just as much a responsibility of the leadership as paying the bills in order for the ministry to operate and grow. Keeping in mind that the primary audience for most house of prayer ministries is going to be the 20 year old crowd your effort need to be aimed in a specific direction and your presentation matters. This leadership track covers variety of subjects related to branding and promoting your ministry in a way that makes people aware of what you are doing in order to hopefully get new people to come visit.

The purpose of this leadership track is to identify some of the practical administrative efforts necessary to run your prayer ministry.  Most of these concepts are not unique to the house of prayer but would be helpful for getting any sort of ministry started.  It’s been my experience that many of those who the Lord is calling to build His house are pioneers who have never had to form a ministry before and don’t have anywhere to identify the proper steps to take.  When we started off I certainly had zero experience to these simple steps; not even enough exposure to them to know that these where things I was supposed to do.  Now that we’ve been helping ministries launch for some years we’ve found the details of this session to be invaluable for many.

Every leader wants for their prayer ministry to grow and we are constantly looking for ways to get new people involved.  But the nature of the house of prayer asks people to do something they aren’t used to; to actually commit to spend time each week in a room with other believers to pray. As is turns out not everyone that you meet will want to make this commitment or be willing to continue doing it long term.  This means that for your prayer ministry to continue to grow you will constantly need to be recruiting new people into the vision.  This series focuses on ideas and systems that have proven to be effective in bringing in new faces that you can present the vision of the house of prayer and call to lives of prayer.

Leading a house of prayer is a lot of work, far too much for one person to handle alone.  In order to effectively lead there needs to be a team of people who are all sharing the load of management and taking responsibility for the sacredness of keeping the fire on the altar.  This leadership track helps identify what to look for in prospective leaders and the various job descriptions you may want to consider as you build your team.
