WORKOUT
These workout videos will walk you through your practice - Creating a Ministry Game Plan.  Set aside about an hour to work through these videos and downloads.  They were originally designed for a College campus, but are applicable in every context.

Video: A God-Inspired Game Plan

Action: Pause to Pray - ask God for His plans, wisdom, to bring to mind relationships, to help you think strategically, to help you know what faithfulness looks like, and for favor .

Video: Persons of Peace

Action: Complete the Team-by-Team Analysis - What Coaches, Staff, Athletes are already involved?  Perhaps involved with another campus ministry?  With whom will you be intentional?

Video: Disciples who make Disciples

Action: Complete the Sample E3 Brainstorm Sheet - do not be afraid to dream big, this worksheet is not intended to overwhelm you with a to-do list but rather to help you consider all the possibilities.

Video: Communicate Strategically

Action: Complete Plan to Present - What goals, tasks, methods and resources do you have and need?

REPLAY
We want to develop a Gameplan that:
  • Is God inspired
  • Makes disciples who make disciples
  • Operates under the Persons of Peace principle
  • Is sustainable
  • You can articulate succinctly to others
Remember to "get low and go slow" - be humble and patient, particularly if you are new to this campus.  Measure your success by your faithfulness, and your faithfulness by listening and obeying.

PRACTICE
If you didn't create your Campus Ministry Gameplan during the video, do so now.  Prepare the "Plan to Present" document - making it your own.  Be ready to present it and receive feedback regarding clarity of vision, tasks, methods and resources needed.  We will present to each other when we meet to debrief.
