How To Equip Your People for Significant Workplace Ministry

6/10/2014

 
This week on the podcast we will talk about:
  • How we can raise up a whole bunch of workplace missionaries
  • How we can multiply ourselves throughout our community
  • How we can have influence in places we’ll never get to, with people we’ll never meet
  • How we can mobilize our church family to minister to our city
  • How we can empower our people to do Kingdom work right where they are
  • How our people can transform their “secular job” into “significant ministry”
  • And, why God doesn’t want everyone to be a pastor or missionary!

John Pletcher. Claim to fame? Father of three boys!
Jonny and Jeff will talk to John Pletcher, Lead Pastor of Manor Church in Lancaster, PA. Jeff met John at that Super-Secret Pastor’s Retreat in the hills of western Pennsylvania.

One of John’s passions is to help church members see how God wants to use them right where they are, in the workplace, marketplace, business, or factory – to do Kingdom ministry with the people all around them.

While John pastors a larger than 200church, he cares deeply for pastors of all size churches, and has developed a resource to help them guide their people through the discovery process.

John’s book, Henry’s Glory, has a subtitle that says it all: A Story for Discovering Lasting Significance in Your Daily Work. This book combines a fictitious story, with strong theology, and “end of chapter” small group questions that combine to create transformational teaching.

As John and Jeff talked in Pennsylvania, it became clear that John could really help us as 200church pastors. He can help us to empower and equip our people to truly discover that lasting significance right there in their place of employment, where they spend so much time, and have so many relationships.

We are so excited to have John join us on Wednesday because all of us pastors need the help! We need our people to join us in ministry to our community. We need workplace missionaries all over our towns and communities! We really believe that our people, the church, deployed at their jobs, are the most overlooked resource we have.

Finally, it is our calling, our responsibility as pastors, to equip our people to do the work of the ministry not just in our own church family, but throughout our community.

What have you been able to do in your church, to equip, empower, and enable your people to be workplace missionaries? Share your ideas with us in the comments section below!


We’ll see you on Wednesday for Episode 74, How To Multiply Workplace Missionaries In Your Small Church.
