4 Some CHAMPION PASTORS

5 On CALLING Lives for a vision of ministry from the Almighty God who called him for this purpose You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit-fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. Jn.15:16

6 On PARTNERSHIP Encourages others to join the work through his example of faith and practice "Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men." At once they left their nets and followed him. Matt 4:19-20

7 On TRAINING Acquires the necessary educational experience and equipping to accomplish the work My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit s power so that your faith might not rest on men s wisdom, but on God s power. 1 Corinthians 2:4-5

8 On PROVISIONS Depends on God for physical necessities and power for the ministry I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength. Philippians 4:12-13

9 On WORK QUALITY Exhibits a standard of excellence that influences his generation, community and the world Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. Colossians 3:22-25

10 On SELF-AWARENESS Reflects on the ongoing work of God with humility and gratitude Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Phil 3:12-14

11 On POWER Stimulates others to be sensitive to the supernatural ministry of the Holy Spirit How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him. Acts 10:38

12 On NURTURING Helps people by affirming their calling through discipleship, mentoring, equipping, and serving You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others. 2 Tim 2:1-2

13 On INNOVATIONS Introduces strategies and structures that are contemporary and culture-sensitive I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it. John 14:12-14

14 On SUCCESSION Prepares leadership and the church for the next generation The LORD gave this command to Joshua son of Nun: "Be strong and courageous, for you will bring the Israelites into the land I promised them on oath, and I myself will be with you Now Joshua son of Nun was filled with the spirit of wisdom because Moses had laid his hands on him. So the Israelites listened to him and did what the LORD had commanded Moses. Deut 31:23; 34:9
