Leadership Resources & Member Benefits from the WCA

I often say that membership at Five Oaks doesn't offer any special benefits, only new responsibilities and more leadership opportunities.

Well, I've finally found a benefit of membership at Five Oaks--access to Willow Creek Association leadership resources and discounts (e.g., 10% on Apple products!).

One of the best free resources you can start using for personal or team leadership development is "Defining Moments." This is a monthly on-line video that features a short clip from one of the Summit speakers and then interview style reflections on the topic with Bill Hybels.

If you're a Five Oaks member, you can get access to this for yourself, your volunteer team or your work team!

Email me and I'll give you the scoop on how to access this.

If you're a Five Oaker and not yet a member, maybe it's time to become a member. Membership at Five Oaks is a step of commitment to the body of Christ. It's a way of saying, "I want to join this team--this local expression of Christ's body. You can count on me to serve and give and live in community." It's important to me to know I can count on you. Join our team!

Monday Memo

Hi Five Oakers, Here are most of the comments and questions from the weekend Communication Cards:

// My first time, like progressive approach to worship from conventional methods. It’s energetic and fresh, casual. [Great meeting you at 10-Minute Connect.]

// We are so blessed to be with our Five Oaks family today! Thank you for your sincere and faithful partnership in the gospel.  Russ & Di Zimmerman [Great seeing you guys and your girls. The video was inspiring. Thanks for what you're doing to reach international students across the U.S.] 

// Beautiful message today, Henry!

// What an encouraging message! I feel I had the “listen up and remember reality” talk...

// Fantastic Henry. So easily understood. Loved definition of hope with confident. And lights really nice.

// Great praise and reflection music! [I agree. Very soulful.]

// Please transform us in the way you see fit. Amen. Thank you Pastor Henry – you have given hope.

// Welcome back Pastor! Thank you for going to Cuba.

// Awesome worship time!

// Woo!

Blessings, Pastor Henry
