What does it look like to live life on mission?
- Taking time and making time in real time.
1.) Slow down
- Taking time
- Learn to be present to God and present to people.
- Taking the time to see what the need/opportunity (problem) is.
2.) Show up
- Making time
- Power of presence; the atmosphere you carry.
- “It is not what a man does that is of final importance, but what he is in what he does. The atmosphere produced by a man, much more than his activities, has the lasting influence” ~ Oswald chambers
- Making someone else’s problem your problem, making someone else’s need your need.
3.) Step out
- Real time
- Speak something, give something, touch someone.
