Novo has observed that there are 5 basic components of a movement. Last month we shared the third, Making Disciples. The fourth component is called Growing Leaders.

Unless leaders are developed intentionally, from within a gospel movement itself, the movement will inevitably collapse under the weight of its own success. Such movement leaders will exhibit a wide array of gifting, all of which are necessary to guide and build ministry momentum that will go far beyond themselves. It is imperative that these leaders know how to identify new leaders and how to appropriately coach, mentor, and launch them into ministry.

Novo Canada is blessed to have Lisa Oliveira and Allen Chang on the team. They both have knowledge and experience activating leaders, in churches and networks respectively.
