Staff Training

 It's so surreal that I have been here for a little over three weeks. I have learned so much about myself, and leadership. I live at a community house with radical lovers of Jesus, I can't imagine living anywhere else during this season. It's amazing how you can feel like family with people that you've only really known for two weeks.

The first week was fire and fragrance staff training, we started off by being in the prayer room for three hours, then in the afternoons we would have lecture. Donna Cole (one of the school leaders) spoke on radical love, she brought such simplicity to loving people, and how the bible says we should love. Once she spoke we split into groups of three and had to teach and apply the information almost instantaneously. I am still reading and praying the verses on love, and I want to be a women of radical love.

Christians have no Excuse for not loving, "because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us." Romans 5:5

After a full week of just Fire and Fragrance staff training, we had corporate staff training. The man who spoke was an incredible wise leader. He runs a leadership DTS in Montana. "It's not about being perfect, but knowing your role." Be a great follower, and you will learn how to be a great leader. We never stop learning about God, and our identity is not YWAM. He posed this question, "are you a disciple of Christ or your position?"

During the weekend we had some friends come and teach us very practical discipleship tools. People are coming to this DTS to be trained. We redefined the meaning of small groups, and declared them as training groups, these groups are to get people equipped and trained. These groups are strategic in learning the gospel, preaching, and teaching.  I mean, they are coming to a Discipleship Training School.  What do you expect? As a staff we are committed unto breakthrough. We are committed to see our students reach freedom, and know their identity in Christ.

We are being training to seek and save the lost.
   Luke 19:10

      ¹⁰ For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”

The whole reason we are doing any training, the whole reason why I am here is to seek and save the lost. I long to be more like Jesus everyday. We are all being trained by Him daily. I am so thankful to be here, I know that the Lord is going to do some amazing things in the next three months. We are going to see mass salvations in Jesus' Name. IT IS SO EXCITING TO FOLLOW JESUS!
