Lesson Transcript
[00:00:00] Now that we've been through the mindsets. And I want to remind you, these are more important than behaviors, because if the mindsets and the direction that we're heading in is aligned then the behaviors contain a kind of take a back seat. We can actually get along with people that we may not like under most circumstances, and we wouldn't have dinner with every week, but we know we're headed in the same direction. So I want you to go to your study guide and go to the page there with the mindset across the page and the blanks to fill and fill in each level and identify your priorities as to whether you are an objective subjective or belief oriented thinker. That's going to help you achieve what has been ordained by God for you, and it'll help you better understand the joys that you will encounter with the kind of work that you do in the kingdom. Each of those blocks has a space below it. Plug in your number. Add those two numbers together in the space underneath it so that you can identify where your strongest skill sets are. In your mindsets. And then write down the jobs on the next page that you enjoyed. Two things that you liked about them and the mindset score implication so that it will help you better understand right in what you see is written on the page for that particular mindset objectively, and then subjectively put in what you think it means to you so that you can glorify God by becoming the person that he created you to be. You will see that in each of these three blocks. area service opportunities, two things that you liked and the mindset score implication. Write in there, what that means to you and it it'll help give you direction on how you can serve the body of Christ and the people that you come in contact with.
[00:02:40] Now, last but not least, we talked about this earlier, but. I'm going to give you an example. You remember the question I ask you to ask other people What do you enjoy doing in your off time? Or tell me about your hobbies or interest? And. I'm going to ask Ed. To tell me what he enjoys in his off time and his heart or his hobbies and interest. Ed, Would you share that with me so that I can show how we can come up with an 80% accuracy term? I enjoy going on bicycle rides. Do you enjoy that by yourself or with your family members with others? Okay. So what does that tell us about it? First of all, it tells us that there's a high social. He enjoys being with other people, but he also enjoys the exercise and being outdoors. So there's some aesthetic there also. But what is it also tells me that he has a very specific hobby or interest, that he goes back to time and time again, which is much more traditional. So when we think about that, we can see that situations and circumstances have an impact on him, but he enjoys the structure in life that gives him the security and the feeling of being in control of his life. Would you say those things are true about him? Yes. So I ask that question to new people that you meet, and when you do, you will be able to understand what's important to them, which is what is their mindsets. And then you'll understand what kind of ministry, what kind of focus and how to approach sharing the gospel with them can have a direct hit every time. May God richly bless you. As you work to understand your nature and nurture and how that will allow you to fulfill your purpose before God.
