1 Let’s Learn to Serve God Through History Lessons 讓我們從歷史的功課裹學習事奉神
“Pay attention to missions” 留意 宣教 事工 Acts 使徒行傳 :19-20; 13:1-3. Philippians 腓立比書 1:5-7; 4:15-17.

2 1. Christian faith is missionary in both its essence and in its history. 基督教信仰在 本質上和 在歷史上 兩者都是 宣教性的.

3 “A short course on church management”
簡短教會管理課程 --by Peter Drucker “The mission of nonprofits (including churches) is to changes lives. 非牟力機構 (包括教會) 的使命是改變人的生活.

4 The function of management is to make the church more churchlike, not to make the church more business like. 管理的功能是 使教會更像教會, 而不是使教會更像商業組織的樣子 (井然有序, 一板一眼的).

5 An organization begins to die the day it begins to be run for the benefit of the insiders and not the benefit of the outsiders. 一個組織 那天開始以 會員自身的利益好處 而不是以外人的利益 著想時 就是它死亡的開始.

6 Know the value of abandonment, you must decide what not to do.
認識 棄絕的價值, 一定要決定什麼是你不做的.

7 Focus on opportunities, not problems; most organizations assign their best resources to their problems, not the opportunities.” 集中注意力 把握機會, 不是在問題上; 絕大多數的機構把 它們最好的資源 分配到解決問題上, 而不是放在機會上.

8 2. Christian missionary movements are always a rank and file (grass roots, bottom-up, mass) movements. 基督教之 宣教運動 向來都是基層人士 (普通人, 草根, 由下而上, 群眾) 的運動.

9 3. Christian missionary movements are always originated from revival movements. 基督教之 宣教運動 都出之於 信仰復興運動.
