MHPL Leadership workshop #3 - Forming Great Habits

In this leadership module, MHPL Youth Ministry Consultant, Peter Dutton will take us through the concepts of ‘Forming Great Habits’ .

MODULE OVERVIEW

Forming Great Habits is an essential skill of discipleship and leadership. If you’ve had an opportunity to develop a discipleship or leadership plan, it will almost inevitably include some element of habit-forming or habit-breaking. The Bible is full of examples of good habits for us to take up and bad habits for us to take off. It’s important for us as disciples and Christian leaders to recognise that minuscule habits can result in life-altering outcomes. This workshop focuses on the why and how of Forming Great Habits.
