  1. Building and Leading Movements “…there is no single defining action,

    no grand program, no one killer innovation, no solitary lucky break, no miracle moment…Rather it is like turning a giant, heavy flywheel. Pushing with great effort - days, weeks and months of work…then at some point - breakthrough! The flywheel flies forward with almost unstoppable momentum…” -Jim Collins, Good To Great

  5. Building and Leading Movements “I can find no situation where

    the church has significantly extended the mission of God, let alone where the church achieved rapid metabolic growth, where apostolic leadership cannot be found in some form. In fact, the more significant the mission impact, the easier it is to discern this mode of leadership.” #2 – Movement Makers

  10. Building and Leading Movements “Thus, St. Paul seems to have

    left his newly founded churches with a simple system of gospel teaching, two sacraments, a tradition of the main facts of the death and resurrection… This seems to us remarkably little…” -Roland Allen, Spontaneous Expansion of the Church
  11. Building and Leading Movements LEARNING: Simple is reproducible. Keep it

    simple enough to write out on a back of a napkin. #4 – Simple Systems
  12. Building and Leading Movements “First, a church planting movement reproduces

    rapidly. Within a very short time, newly planted churches are already starting new churches that follow the same pattern of rapid reproduction… Movements always outstrip the population growth rate as they race toward reaching the entire people group.” -David Garrison, Church Planting Movements
  13. Building and Leading Movements LEARNING: Apprenticeship (reproduction) at every level

    is what makes a movement, move! #5 – Rapid Reproduction
