How do we move from ideas to action?
Equip, energize, and mobilize the congregation for mission

One of the best ways to build members' support for a holistic ministry vision is to get them involved in doing ministry. A poster in Spanish on the wall of the New Creation Community Center summarizes this approach. Translated, it reads: "Tell me, I forget. Show me, I remember. If I do it, I understand." (Churches That Make a Difference, page 277)
