There are 4 words that Pastors hate to hear. Words that are like nails running down a chalkboard to any preacher.

I’m sorry to make you read them, but here they are…

I’m. not. getting. fed.

It hurt me just to write them.

They’re annoying.

Frustrating.

But sometimes… they’re true.

Sometimes people really aren’t growing.

I’ve learned that there are times when churches don’t offer people a clear path to grow and christians feel stuck in their faith. The truth is, this is more common than we might realize.

One of the biggest reasons that people walk out the back door of churches isn’t because they weren’t greeted warmly or they didn’t like the music; it’s because they stopped growing.

That’s why having a leadership development process is so vital. Making leadership development the centerpiece of your discipleship model does so many good things, but here’s 2 huge benefits:

#1 – It silences all the people who say they aren’t being fed. 

When you have a process that leads people to greater degree of leadership and Biblical understanding, you will never have to worry about them leaving the church.

#2 – It creates a model where people know what their next step is. 

One of the reasons people say they aren’t growing is because they are confused as to what the next step is.

Leadership Ninja will help you build a system that disciples and trains leaders simultaneously.

In fact, session 1 is all about building a leadership development system.

But it starts tomorrow (October 12th) and there’s only 2 spots left.

So if you’re interested in seeing an explosion of leaders in your church, then giddy up and head over to www.ninjaleadership.com. 

P.S. There’s a bunch of bonuses for participating in the network, but there really are only 2 spots left. So don’t delay. Go to www.ninjaleadership.com.

I am deeply committed to seeing leaders raised up at every level at Calvary. I know that’s important to you as well.

There really is a secret to raising up lots and lots of leaders.

It’s not calling staffing companies and combing through resumes.

Makes. me. want. to. gag.

Instead, the key to unlimited leaders is making your leadership system part of the DNA of for church.

Everyone needs to know about it.

Even though who don’t participate.

They need to know that everyone who enters your leadership development process gets developed, discipled, and dispatched into greater levels of ministry.

When everyone knows that your leadership development is the place to be, that’s when you’ll stop having a leadership shortage.

Leadership Ninja kicks off in 6 days and we are leading off with a session on building your leadership system.

A system that trains and develops leaders at every level.

I grew up in Boston, so to say that I’m a Red Sox fan is a severe understatement.

I love the Red Sox. I cried when they won the Word Series in 2004.

Needless to say, the last week has been rough for me.

The Red Sox fell apart. Completely.

Then to make matters worse, they fired their manager.

Say. it. ain’t. so.

But in the midst of all of this madness, there’s 3 huge leadership lessons for us to learn as church leaders: 

1. The Red Sox didn’t think through the chemistry of the team when they brought in their high priced free agents.

2.The responsibility of the success of the team always falls on the senior leader. Period.

3. When their high priced players got hurt, the Sox found that their farm system was pretty thin.

In working with thousands of churches, I could list these same issues as the root problems they faced.

The bottom line is, you never grow past raising up leaders.

It’s a relentless art.

But it doesn’t have to be impossible.

In fact, in my new coaching network Leadership Ninja, I’m going to teach our entire system for reproducing leaders al very level.

In 11 years, we raised up all of our leaders and staff from within. Every single. one.

I know this can be your story as well.

Because the most loyal, high performing leaders, are those whom you raise up.

If you join Leadership Ninja, I’m going to teach you how to do that.

But here’s the deal: I’ve only got 4 spots left for Leadership Ninja. 

So time is of the essence.

The U.S. Army rocks for many reasons.

But there’s one reason that most people overlook, that makes the Army unparalleled as an organization.

It’s not their battle skills.

Or their exceptional abilities.

Neither.

It’s one thing… they exclusively raise up their own leaders.

The Army doesn’t “borrow” soldiers from other branches of the military when they’re looking for new leaders.

Instead, the Army does the hard work of training men and women who can lead at all levels.

They have a thoughtful strategy for turning Privates into Generals.

Most churches fail to put together a winning plan for raising up leaders and seeing people go from infancy to maturity in Christ.

The reason?

No one has given Pastors a proven system for training leaders from within who can lead at all levels in the church.

Leadership Ninja is a 6-month coaching experience that will teach you a reproducible system for investing in leaders and discipling people for maximum effectiveness.

How do I know this works?

Because in 11 years we’ve never had to hire 1 person from the outside.

Not. even. once.

The best leaders in your church are the ones you raise up.

We’ll help you do that.

Leadership Ninja starts next Wednesday (October 12th @ 2PM EST) and there’s only 6 spots left!
