Leadership
Preach, teach & model
> Our church support team will be journeying alongside you and your i61m Ambassador to help create the culture shift with catch ups, reviews and providing feedback on engagement with our app.
> Our creative team will produce resources for you to share with your leadership and church family, helping you to inspire your congregation and model what you preach - preach, teach, model.
Sundays
Launch, inspire & engage
> We have found that the most effective way to introduce the i61 Movement and begin the journey is to hold a launch service. We provide presentation and video content to help you inspire and inform your congregation.
> Our initial preaching series explains in detail why and how i61 works through ‘share life, share faith and share Jesus’. It establishes the biblical foundation that every Christian is commanded by Jesus, and anointed by the Spirit to preach good news.
> To keep up the consistent momentum we produce a 2 minute trailer for our small group series: i61@home that you can show each month on a Sunday.
> Working alongside this, leaders and members of the congregation can share testimonies from their journey. Be honest and open about challenges, celebrate small steps and growth in confidence as well as fruit in friendships. This must reflect that anyone can do it, it’s not just for church leaders, the Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news.
> We can send promotional and display materials such as posters and leaflets to keep a physical presence / promote i61m within your church.
> Regular prompting/reminding - social media, in app notifications, events, online groups, developments and news stories for you to engage with and share with your church.
Groups
Accountability, Encouragement & Action
Incorporate i61m into your small groups, prayer triplets or any Christian group. Regularly watch the Take 5 or full i61@home videos. Use the app and set acts to turn good intentions into actions.
> Share stories, encourage each other, celebrate success and discuss with your church family when things don’t go as planned, it will happen and that’s ok.
> Pray together for God to show you who he would like you to start sharing your life with.
> The option to host an online group for the approx 40% of congregations that dont attend a mid week group, we are happy to join your group to inspire everyone as you kick start your journey.
