You don't need to have it all together to lead a Small Group—you just have to be willing to let God use you. We believe God uses Small Groups to change people's lives, and as a leader, you get to be a part of that.
As an essential part of the Impact Leadership family, you have a responsibility to develop and exhibit mature Christian behavior. This should be the basic premise of your desire to work in a Servant/Leader position here at Impact. While serving the Body of Christ as a small group leader at Impact, you pledge to demonstrate Biblical standards in all situations.
As Christians, the way we present ourselves to others is of vital importance to the way others perceive Christ. Our conduct should never be an embarrassment to Christ, but should exemplify the best qualities of a mature believer and Servant/Leader.
“I pledge to exemplify the highest moral commitment and maintain a disciplined life of Bible reading, prayer, and fasting. I will refrain from such things as profanity, smoking or chewing tobacco, gambling, indulging in much wine, other alcoholic beverages, dishonest gain, illegal drugs, pornography, sexual immorality, and all behaviors which might cause Christ to grieve and others to stumble. My behavior will exemplify the principles of Christ in speech and action. I will encourage others to grow in Christ and become Servant Leaders. I commit to this as a way of life measured by the heart and commitment of each leader in the Impact Church family. I will regard this Honor Code as an essential part of development and not as an imposition or restriction.”
If you're a first-time leader or want to learn more about small group leadership, join us for Small Group training on Sunday, August 11th or Sunday, August 18th in the Office Green Room at 10:30am.
