I want to offer some help to my ministry friends with a routine I do with myself and with my teams at this point in the year. It's called 3 Looks Forward and 3 Looks back, You can do more and you can do less, it's all up to you but it's these basic principles.

3 Looks Back-
Look back at yourself- How have you grown in this past year? Come up with 3 things
Look back at your spiritual life- List 3 things
Look back at the overall ministry- list 3
What is the trend you see? Growth, loss, change? (better or worse) New things? Same old things?
Looking back, what ONE thing stands out?
What is one thing you can learn from your 3?
Where do you see God working in those 3 things?
Spend some time - thinking through these things- Are they positive written or negative tones? Why are they the way they are?
If you could go back and change 1 of the three what would it be and why? How would it look different?
3 Looks forward-
As you look forward
What do you envision for yourself in an ideal year?
What do you envision for your spiritual life in an ideal year?
What do you envision for your overall ministry in an ideal year?
What trend do you want to see?
What will you experience in the new year?
Where do you want to see God work and what will be the fruit at the end of this new year?
Spend some time dreaming, asking God to give you the vision for 2021-
What will be your top 3 priorities in 2021
You
Spiritually
Ministry
What are you going to do to make this happen- List some smaller steps for each of the top 3
Set some check in deadlines for these- put them on your calendar as reminders
Get 2 people to help with prayer and accountability- DON'T SKIP THIS!
Did you include any of the following on your lists?
Develop yourself as a leader?
Plan for regular rest?
Develop 1 person to take my place?
Disciple 1 person
Encourage 1 set of parents or a single parent
**You may be asking how am I supposed to fit these in. If you have the right priorities you will find these things happening and producing fruit for you.
I want to challenge you all for 2021- Let this be the year we get back to the basics of Kids ministry. Where we help them understand the gospel, how to have a personal relationship with Jesus and how to walk with him daily- Reading his word, praying, sharing faith with others so they too can make disciples.
Let’s make our environments fun and attractive but, Let’s make them be the tool, not the main thing.
Let’s use our curriculum to take kids deeper into God’s word so that they can see how it leads them to live in an ever changing world.
Let’s share our lives with others so that we are helping them walk with God in an intimate way.
Let’s take care of ourselves and operate at a sustainable pace of ministry where it's not about programming it's about people.
Lets develop a simple and effective strategy to reach those who come into the building and those who will stay at home.
Let’s develop a simple plan to take the good news into our community by serving them where they are not making them come to us.
Let’s have a solid plan to rest and restore so we can stay in ministry for the long haul because the world needs us now, more than ever to be healthy in our heart, souls and minds.
If you need help, instead of struggling, instead of feeling ashamed. Invest in yourself. Hire a coach/mentor.
I am determined that 2021 will be a great year for KMC Coaching. It’s my goal to help hundreds of ministry leaders in 2021. My plan is to continue to offer the best in ministry coaching/mentoring I can possibly offer.
I will work with any budget but will also not lower the standards that I have set to take care of my family while doing this. I’m not trying to get rich, but I’m trying to help as many leaders as who desire to grow themselves, who are teachable, humble and ready to make the most of the next season.
I have put in my work, I have mentored myself so I can be better at what I do. I continue to study and grow my skills so that I can design a path to walk along any leader who says, “I’m ready.”
I will also continue to push leaders to attend a Restoring Leaders Retreat or join an online connection group in 2021. I believe God has allowed me to walk many hard paths and experience the darkness, I’ve experienced and walked through it and become better for it so I can walk alongside leaders to keep them in ministry.
To help leaders remember their calling and their day one joy that they had when they first entered ministry.
I’m tired of the stats that tell us that leaders are leaving in record numbers. If we help each other we can beat this.
It’s time for leaders to lock shields and go shoulder to shoulder.
It’s time for leaders to stop being afraid to say, I’m not in a good place and I need help.
It’s time for churches to support leaders who are brave enough to say this and pay for them to get the help they need.
It’s time for restoration. It’s time for renewal. It’s time.
I’m going to be fully launching the Restoring leaders retreats and online groups in 2021. You’ll want to join our list at restoringleaders.org so you can get all the details and get your registration in for one of them. We will be keeping them small and intimate, the costs will cover your food, housing and resources and I can guarantee you will have time to rest, connect and be restored.
So Lets’ take 3 looks forward and 3 looks back and let's take more ground for the kingdom in 2021. Let’s not let anything stop us from moving forward, We have the God of the impossible on our side, let’s live and lead like it.

There are many things required of us in today's new now. We as leaders must learn to quickly reflect on what's happening and make the needed changes. As Craig Groeschel put it, "Feel the Fear, but lead anyway!"

If you are struggling with burnout, facing a ministry change and need someone to talk to safely and confidentially. I would recommend checking out Restoring Leaders

Join Tom Bump as he shares about a brand new ministry called Restoring Leaders
So many leaders are running on empty. Emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Because of this, they are leaving the ministry in high numbers. It's time to make it stop.
It's time to step out of pattern and into something that leads to restoration.
