Here
are some ways that "Simple-minded" might be able to assist
those who are devoted to serving the church that Jesus gave
himself for:
1.
If you read nothing
else on this website make sure you don't skip the parts
describing the ESSENTIALS
of an
extraordinary simple church. Practical teaching ideas
are available for most of them at the bottom of their
respective pages.
2.
Feel free to use or
adapt the information on this website however you wish, but
please credit “Simple-minded” if you share it with people
who don’t yet know about this ministry.

Check out
the Downloadable
Files page for information
contained on this website that you can adapt and print
as you please.
4.
The
Quick-Start
Guide may be all you need to get
up-and-running with your new group. It highlights what
needs to happen in your first three meetings, drawing ideas
from other spots on this website and from the book,
Gold, Silver and Precious Stones
(available on
the Products and
Resources page). A planned revision to
that book will include this section as an additional
chapter.
5.
An
interactive training called "Prototype" has been
developed to help your leadership team or church(es)
practically incorporate each of the ESSENTIALS into the
life of any group. Teaching segments last from 30 minutes
to three hours, depending on the topic. Personalized
coaching and a full-day workshop are also available that
cover all ten.
6.
An intense,
all-weekend workshop
is also available
for 10-20 participants. It is designed to powerfully
confront them with the supernatural difference they can
make in each others’ lives when they are devoted to loving
each other in Jesus’ name. This is a great way to launch a
new church or take an already-existing group to a much
deeper level.
