Help an emerging lay leader practice faithful leadership over the next 90 days. This printable workbook gives a developing leader and mentor a shared rhythm of exercises, conversation, prayer, and follow-through in a small or rural church.
What the 96-page PDF includes
- 12 weekly exercises across three themes: character and calling; competency and communication; ministry and multiplication.
- Six guided mentor conversations, scheduled after every two exercises, with space for notes, prayer, and follow-up.
- Three monthly checkpoints and a final reflection to review growth and next steps.
- Application and follow-through pages for each exercise, plus a reference appendix of 40 daily reflection prompts.
- A completion certificate and a short “What Comes Next” section.
How to use it
Choose one developing leader and a mentor. Work through the exercises in order, set a practical action after each one, and meet for the six conversations. The workbook leaves writing space for the leader’s own context. At the end, review readiness together before assigning new responsibility; completing the workbook alone does not qualify someone for a ministry role.
Format: one 96-page PDF available after checkout. Licensed for use by one church or ministry.
This workbook is also included in the Rural Church Complete Library.
