Principles

Empowerment

 & Jesus said, "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much" (Luke 16:10)

Leadership

 & Jesus called them together and said... "whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave -- just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." (Matthew 20:27-28)

Focus/Alignment

 & "..make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose." (Philippians 2:2)

& "Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be like-minded one toward another according to Christ Jesus" (Romans 15:5)

Teamwork

 & "Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work: If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up! Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken." (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12)

& "As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. (Proverbs 27:17)

Reinforcement

 & "An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a good word cheers him up. Do not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your power to act. To make an apt answer is joy to a man, and a timely word, how good it is. (Proverbs: 12:25, 3:27, 15:23)

& "Respect those who work hard. Hold them in highest regard in love because of their work. (I Thes: 5:12). Authorities sent ...for the praise of them that do well." (I Peter 2:13-14)

& "...he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed." (Proverbs 11:25b)

& "Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; someone else, and not your own lips. ... but man is tested by the praise he receives. (Proverbs 27:2, 27:21b)

Shaping

 & "Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things." (Matthew 25:21)

Planning

 & "And whatsoever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men: Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ." (Colossians 3:23-24)

& "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your paths." (Proverbs 3: 5-6)

"Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisors they succeed. Make plans by seeking advice." (Proverbs 15:22, 20:18)

& "Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails. In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps. There is no wisdom, no insight, no plan that can succeed against the Lord." (Proverbs 19:21, 16:9, 21:30)

& "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." (Jeremiah 29:11)
