2. I have come to believe that the two spiritual disciplines that we practice (SASHET – listening to each other and VIRKLER – listening to God) are the most important things I can pass on to a man. If these two disciplines become core habits in his life, almost everything else will flow from that (marriage, family, work, ministry, etc.). “Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime”. Like Jesus with the 3 & 12 relationally. The elements of the disciplines can be easily imparted in each cultural context.3. When we “check in” with each other every day, we both share. This means that, as a mentor, I am first of all modeling for my disciple. Every day I am sharing with him about my heart and I’m sharing with him what I’m hearing from God. This is the best kind of teaching/learning. Then, secondly, every day he is getting to practice these disciplines himself. We don’t just talk about theory. The best learning, as you know, is experiential. Amen. What I just saw in Slovakia for the Modular School was leaders that had been through it earlier and like cream came to the top for leadership. Just prior to the last session on Friday, I watched Ellel East founders Otto and Sharon work with the seven asking where the students under them were on turning in their homework and filling out the necessary paperwork for the next module. All were complaining that the students were procrastinating, then came the excuses that this is typical for the Slovak culture. Otto very firmly came back that this was a discipleship issue for them to tackle and that the culture for God’s Kingdom is generally different with every culture. Then O&S gave them some ideas on how to proceed, letting them know that the responsibility fell on their shoulders.In each of the nations where the Modular schools are being held, there are the leaders that have this role. I see in this the opportunity to impart into these leaders the principles that you have listed here – “teaching them how to fish”. In the Great Commission command to disciple “nations”, it is my understanding that the Greek rendering of this is “people groups”. Over here, as in ABQ with the Hispanic, native Americans and Caucasians, there are the Gypsies and several language groups in each nation.4. And, finally, CO2s are the perfect context to discern “faithfulness”. In 2 Tim. 2:2, Paul admonishes Timothy to “teach these things to faithful men who will then teach others”. (hmmm as in 3 above) I believe “faithfulness” must be demonstrated and not just talked about. I believe it means “follow through over time”. If a man is willing to follow through with the CO2 day after day, it’s very likely that he is a faithful man. I would also add that a CO2 enables your disciple to then “teach others” because it is very simple and easy to pass on. Starting churches (churches of two) has now become so simple that any faithful man (or woman) can do it. Hmmm requires being intentional – commitment. I can see how doing CO2s requires this. Thanks!5. I have become so convinced of the value of the CO2 that I now I generally won’t start a house/simple church unless there is a healthy CO2 in place. As Neil Cole has said, if you can’t multiply LTGs (his version of a CO2), its unlikely that you will be able to multiply house churches. I think he’s right! Ummmm yes.Hope that helps some on the topic of mentoring men. It does, and I know God will preveniently make the opportunity that I am hoping to hear (i.e. Virkler). I have asked Karesz and Tamas to set aside some time where we can find a quiet place with a white-board and brainstorm. Thanks for these seed planted!
