The Pen

A three day “consulting session” has begun! Speaking to a dozen or so key field leaders, Bob tells the story of the cast off piece of wood. The story helps to illustrate the “movement” concept to these men who are providing leadership to about one third of India Berean. Collectively they represent 14 districts, 144 church planters, 107 churches, 180 cell groups.

On a previous consulting trip to India a small piece of cast off wood was picked up by Bob. It was a rough, weathered home for termites. But he saw what it could be. Taking the piece of wood home he crafted several pens. Each seminar attendee received a pen made from discarded pieces of wood.

As leaders in a reproducing church movement they need to skillfully use the resources that God has given them. India Berean is glorying God through establish reproducing churches. Leaders mentor disciples who will reach and train others, who will reach and train others, who will reach and train others!
