YOU ARE NOT JUST A VOLUNTEER !
Workbook: $19.99
Whether it be your role as a volunteer in a Church ministry, at a local Hospital, or associated with a Civic or Not-for-profit Organization, you are not just a volunteer! Your time, talent, passion, and presence have an impact on who you interact with. You can be the best public ambassador for your group, or their worst public image nightmare! You can add value to your organization by saving budget dollars that would need to be used to replace your efforts, or you can cause unimaginable waste and extra costs by doing your job/role poorly! Whether you know it or not, you are in the role of leader/ambassador and people are watching, making decisions as to the validity and public opinion of the organization you represent by your demeanor, actions, and words you share with strangers. It may be extra time you offer for free. It may be something to fill your time during the day. It may be fulfilling and feel like you are contributing something back to the public community. But You Are Not Just A Volunteer! Learn what that means, and become the best volunteer you can be!

THE SERVANT LEADER
Workbook: $19.99
Leadership is not about Titles, Status, Power, Uniforms, or the Office with a View and Big Desk! It's about Relationships, Relationships, Relationship, and Relationships! The Important Question is, "With Who?" To answer that sincere and important question you have to know, "Who are You?!" Who you are inside regarding Values, Hopes, Dreams, Vision, and Your Historic Story has a great deal to tell who you are and what makes you tick. After discerning that, the next question arises, "What are you being told, and are You listening to a Passionate Call?" From these points we are drawn into relationships and how we manage ourselves and the connections we have with others makes all the difference between our being perceived as either The Good, The Bad, or The Ugly; in the minds and perceptions of others. If Someone Leads, and Nobody Follows; They're Only Taking a Walk!

TESTIMONIAL
Epiphany had been a struggling mission in Burnet, Texas. We invited Steve Rottgers to lead us in "Ripe for the Harvest." As a result, we found increased awareness in local community ministries as well as in the ministry in the church itself. We have achieved Parish Status and we are blessed with many people giving of their time and talent in the community and in the Church. This program fired up many of the people in Epiphany!

TESTIMONIAL
Christ Church initiated the "Ripe for the Harvest" in 2007. We were looking for a particular program to help us brake out from a mold of being a pastoral-sized church and increase our overall total giving. We found "Ripe for the Harvest" to be a unique hands on program of complete congregational interaction. Through a process of a month, we were able to incorporate our past, present and future mission for our church. We have now grown in ASA past 150 and were able to prioritize as a congregation where we need to shape our budget presently and for future needs. It has been an exciting adventure in faith to chart and complete priorities on the Super List! Thanks Steve for this opportunity!
