Values

Walk & Talk Core Leadership Counseling Values

THE LIVING WORD 
for Faith and Practice

• 

  The Word of God is the foundation, the “plumbline” for all of life and Christian ministry—personal and corporate.

• Leaders facing problems often respond with habitually unhealthy attitudes and behaviors which are not supported by Scripture, leading to greater stress and/or sin; responses that reflect Christ's character and his Word are the remedy.

BEING AND DOING in Balance for Integrity 

• Effective leaders must have a rigorous, consistent personal devotional life for a healthy, fruitful ministry.

• An excessive “performance orientation” in ministry is not an asset; rather, it is an obstacle to knowing Christ and making him known.

TRUST AND VULNERABILITY for Vital Relationships

• Many leaders mask their problems and live in fear of being truly known; they avoid being vulnerable before God and man, therefore forfeiting the treasure of intimacy.

• Pain is a part of personal growth; it requires authenticity and trust before God and others—for genuine freedom in Christ, and a ministry that multiplies.
