(3 credits) A WORD FROM DR. KARA POWELL . . . Its been said that if we measure it, it will improve. While that is an overstatement, it is nonetheless true that the more we strategically assess what we are doing, why we are doing it, and how it impacts others, the more we will be able to adjust our work to have greater effects. I look forward to our time together and want to be clear in advance about my expectations for our relationships: I promise to be well-prepared so that we all learn and grow as much as possible. I promise to help connect what we are learning to real life leadership and ministry. I promise to help create an environment that stimulates growth and provocative questions. I expect you to be well-prepared so that we can stir each other on toward more effective ministry. I expect you to treat each other in a spirit of love and respect. I expect you to take the materials we learn seriously, seeking to implement them so that the Kingdom of God is further advanced.
