用「起承轉合」講生命故事就是傳福音(第一部份)


用「起承轉合」講生命故事.....

-是傳神的創造 : 恩賜、生命資產、使命、召命 (在起、承、合)

-是傳基督的救贖: 心意更新, 舊事已過, 悔改 (在轉)

  • 人生最大的 「轉」就是跟從主耶穌! 從前是瞎眼, 現在可看 見前路(方向、目標)

-是傳聖靈的引導: 行動、神的帶領、警報、求救 (在合)
  • 人生路滿有轉捩點 . 信主後還是不斷地「轉」和「合」

-是傳今生至永恆的人生路: 運用生命資產、結果子、做忠心僕人、得神的賞賜 (在合)
  • 生命故事要繼續寫下去! 連結過去、現在 、 將來. 連結個人的故事和神的故事

-講述者不只是參加教會傳福音活動; 也不是只用口傳; 

  • 是相信活好自己的生命就是福音!

轉念事業, 解脫作業、職業、專業困惑 (第三部份)


打造個人事業 (Career)

-事業是生命 (life) 的一部份

-作業 < 職業、專業 (making a living) < 事業 < 生命 (making a life) (making a difference)

-為計劃自己的事業, 試用一至兩句, 連結作業、職業、專業....

      .....基本元素: (a) 為服侍誰 (和在那裏) (b) 怎樣用你的 「生命資產」服侍 (c) 支撐的金句

-好例子: "....用知識、技能, 在建築界做光做鹽...."; "...用心思和寫作技巧給讀者盼望..."

-差例子: "我要做一個成功的CEO"; "我要做一個高尚的企業家"

-事業計劃就是攪好自己的「一人企業」(錢北斗)

-有智慧地選擇、 集中, 投資在「生命資產」, 一步步打造 (可能不必要轉工轉行!)

-做事業計劃是屬靈的, 因為腦子是神的禮物, 要跟着神好好用它

- 相關思維: 什麽是「成功」, POST 模式, 定位, 塑造品牌, 定標竿, 內/外策略, 個人管理

反思、討論
  • "What is your business/career?" (你的業務/事業是什麽) ? 你通常怎樣回答別人? 如果是上帝問, 你的答案是否一樣 ? 為什麽 ? 
  • 怎樣可以從他們的事業路學習 : 一些信徒、職場老闆、政府官員、社會領袖、等?
  • 你計劃你的事業、人生路, 得到教會 (領袖、弟兄姊妹) 的了解和支持嗎 ? 為什麽 ?
