Key Points From This Episode:
🔹 1. Foundations Take Time
Movement growth often feels slow at first.
Early stages involve clearing obstacles, starting fresh, and laying deep foundations.
Don’t despise small beginnings—multiplication starts slow but accelerates over time.
🔹 2. Context Matters
In areas with existing Christian exposure, “unlearning” is often needed.
Be patient with the process of shifting to movemental thinking and practices.
🔹 3. Focus on the Lost
Rapid growth is more likely when focusing on the unreached and unchurched.
They tend to adopt new models and obey Christ more readily.
🔹 4. Discipleship Is Life-on-Life
Deep transformation takes time and relational investment.
Prioritize strong foundations in both people and methods.
🔹 5. Grow at the Pace of Your Values
“Grow as fast as you can maintain your values” is wise advice.
Don’t sacrifice core principles for the sake of speed.
🔹 6. Multiply Leaders Early
Empower people before they feel fully ready—but walk with them.
Avoid both extremes: abandoning too soon or staying too long.
🔹 7. Stick to the Basics
Keep training focused on obedience to Jesus’ commands.
Simplicity and clarity help sustain growth.
🔹 8. Use Reproducible Frameworks
The 3/3rds process is a helpful structure for coaching, training, and leadership.
Frameworks provide stability during rapid expansion.
🔹 9. Biblical Insight
Luke 13:6–9 reminds us that fruitfulness takes time and care.
Dig around, fertilize, and give it time—then expect fruit.
