Qualification of lead planters: the dude by Mark Driscoll

We are looking for men.

It starts in the home.

40% of kids don’t have a dad in the home. They think that even have to be a wimp or a bully.

A man above reproach. that means no legalistic, nit-pickers, etc.

If you rush a man to quickly he is going to rush you.

One woman kind of man, where his eyes, heart, and hands are only on his wife.

Often ask your wife and children do you feel like a priority, do you know you are a priority?

Have a study at home, meet at the office.

You should be reading your bible in the context of being at your home and talking about it with your wife and your family.

1. read the bible
2. sing to Jesus
3. pray with them

have a plan for your family 1st
have a plan for your church 2nd

The people that matter the most are suppose to be your wife and your kids

Hebrews 13:7
