Winning people to the vision.
In order to mobilize people you must first capture them. Casting Vision – Part 1 spoke of what to include in vision casting but this section will build on that and establish areas of a persons life that we need to speak to in order to win them to the vision.

1. Intellect
The vision needs to engage peoples intellect in order for them to give themselves to it wholeheartedly. It cannot be some crazy, out there dream that doesn’t seem rationally possible. It needs to be something they can engage with, wrestle with in their mind and come up with strategies to get there. It needs to be presented in a savvy way that does make people think about where you are going and what they could do to help take you there. You can do this by leaving people wrestling the problem claritin 10 mg you are trying to solve though your vision.

2. Heart
Make it personal for people! Put a bit of emotion into it and help them feel for the vision. If you get their heart to be in it then you are setting them up to make it for the long haul. Heart is the thing that will inspire people to go beyond themselves to see a dream come to reality. Heart inspires people.

3. Feet
It must contain something that has action to it. In your vision try to make steps and plans for how you can see it become a reality. Put job descriptions in place so that people can easily see what they could do to help achieve the vision. Vision takes an idea of where you could be and makes it a reality, its the plans that bring your dreams to action.

Follow these and you are well on your way to establishing a team that will run with you and the vision of your church.
