NEHEMIAH- BIBLICAL LEADERSHIP
Nehemiah was a unique leader in his day and after studying the life of Nehemiah the Biblical character for several years, I still cannot say that this man fits into a single category of prophet, priest, or apostle. It’s as if he were a prototype for Jesus and His followers to come, divergent, if you will. He held several titles, but who he was as demonstrated by his God-giving calling and roles throughout his years grew, rather than changed.
I’ve found myself relating to Nehemiah in function many times throughout my years in ministry. Some of the qualities of a “Nehemiah type” are builders, strategists, rallyists, delegators, organizers, governors, spear-headers, and you could say those driven by their calling.
My thought in publishing these notes was merely to help other leaders identify and grow in the qualities of their function as Apostolic leaders. My prayer is that as you read-pray-study this book you are unlocked in areas of your own leadership as a parent, ministry leader and co-laborer in the Kingdom of God.
CURRICULUM for Children
These are not your average Sunday School resources. These are tools you can use to take kids who "know all the stuff" deeper in intimacy with God. Use them, share them, adapt them, we don't mind. We just pray that the children in your life have real encounter with the Living God. If you are a teacher or children’s church leader feel free to contact me for questions on resources at: lucybostonsings@gmail.com
Foundations of Prayer, Curriculum
Just like adults, a prayer life doesn't happen on accident for kids. Using the FOUNDATIONS OF PRAYER teachings can help your kids develop tools to build their prayer life. This curriculum has been designed to be used with children in a hands on classroom environment, but can easily be adapted for families, schools and other environments. It goes through six different types of prayer, including adoration, proclamation, and intercession, giving practical application for the children each lesson. These eight lessons will put tools in children's lives to experience God through prayer in their everyday lives. Below you can download a coordinating PowerPoint Slide Show and Full Color PDF Supplemental Materials.
