  7. A Few Thoughts

  8. John 15:15 • I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.

  9. What if they… • Refuse or are unable to identify their problem--- or even acknowledge there is a problem? • Refuse or are unable to identify the people who were hurt by their behavior? • Don’t follow through and clean up their mess? • They still see themselves as ‘slaves’… More time is needed in this Culture of Honor • They aren’t ready to ‘lead’ others yet… “Go around the mountain again” until it falls away! • You aren’t ready to lead anyone until you’re ready to love them more than you love yourself…

  10. Sidenote… • Wolf Behavior

  11. John 15:12-17 • My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command. 15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you. 17 This is my command: Love each other.

  12. The Call… • My yoke is easy and my burden is light… • Have you been ‘cleaning up other people’s messes?’ • How has this impacted you? • How has this impacted them?

  13. Jesus wasn’t afraid… • The “Culture of Honor” honors people by allowing them to “own” their actions and clean up their messes. Can you think of examples where this is modeled by Jesus? • What fear makes us want to ‘clean up other people’s messes?

  14. Which shows more honor?Which supports pursuit of destiny? I’ll take care of you… You’ve got what it takes…

  15. Scenarios to discuss Your employee is consistently shirking responsibility that makes everyone else have to pick up the slack… • Your child comes home with a D on their report card…
