Charting the Course
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on July 15th, 2026
Once a pastor has helped the church define who it is and has established a relationship of trust (see last article), he is ready to cast a vision. Proverbs 29:18 states, "Where there is no vision, the people cast of restraint." Leadership magazine says, "Every great work and every great person has come under the influence of a vision that changed them, and therefore, changes others."How important ...  Read More

رسم المسار
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on July 15th, 2026
بمجرد أن يساعد القس الكنيسة في تحديد هويتها وتأسيس علاقة ثقة (انظر المقال السابق)، يصبح مستعدًا لطرح رؤية. ينص سفر الأمثال 29: 18، "بِلاَ رُؤْيَا يَجْمَحُ الشَّعْبُ." وتقول مجلة القيادة (Leadership): "كل عمل عظيم وكل شخص عظيم خضع لتأثير رؤية غيرته، وبالتالي، يغير الآخرين."ما مدى أهمية الرؤية؟ أتذكر أن جورج بوش خسر محاولته لإعادة انتخابه رئيسًا لنا في عام 1992، لأنه لم يتمكن من التعامل مع "مسألة ال...  Read More

दिशा तय करना
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on July 15th, 2026
एक बार जब कोई पादरी कलीसिया को यह परिभाषित करने में मदद कर देता है कि वे कौन हैं और विश्वास का रिश्ता स्थापित कर लेता है (पिछला लेख देखें), तो वह एक दूरदृष्टि (विज़न) प्रस्तुत करने के लिए तैयार होता है। नीतिवचन 29:18 कहता है, "जहाँ कोई दर्शन (दूरदृष्टि) नहीं, वहाँ लोग निरंकुश हो जाते हैं।" 'लीडरशिप' पत्रिका कहती है, "हर महान कार्य और हर महान व्यक्ति एक ऐसी दूरदृष्टि के प्रभाव में आया है जिसने उन्ह...  Read More

Traçando o Rumo
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on July 15th, 2026
Uma vez que um pastor ajudou a igreja a definir quem ela é e estabeleceu uma relação de confiança (veja o artigo anterior), ele está pronto para lançar uma visão. Provérbios 29:18 declara: "Onde não há visão, o povo se corrompe." A revista Leadership diz: "Toda grande obra e toda grande pessoa estiveram sob a influência de uma visão que as mudou e, portanto, muda os outros."Qual é a importância da...  Read More

Stabilirea direcției
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on July 15th, 2026
Odată ce un pastor a ajutat biserica să definească cine este și a stabilit o relație de încredere (vezi articolul precedent), el este gata să transmită o viziune. Proverbe 29:18 spune: „Când nu este nicio viziune, poporul este fără frâu.” Revista Leadership afirmă: „Orice lucrare măreață și orice om măreț au intrat sub influența unei viziuni care i-a schimbat și, prin urmare, îi schimbă și pe alți...  Read More
