The
Cost of Victory By Dr. Greg Wiens This
weekend we celebrated our independence. Anything of value costs
dearly. It was Thomas Paine who wrote: "What we obtain too cheap,
we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value.
Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be
strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly
rated." (The Crisis, December 23, 1776) He wrote this as people in
America were facing a challenge of fighting for their freedom or succumbing
to Britain's domination. Over 75% of the leaders to whom he presented
this lost their lives, fortunes or family members through the war that
ensued. They felt FREEDOM was worth giving everything for. As God's
Church we too have to decide what is our freedom in Christ worth? God
the Father paid for it with the inestimable price of Jesus' death on the
cross. What are we willing to pay so that those who live, work and play
around us also experience this freedom in Christ? To keep

"AN OPEN
CONVERSATION: PRACTICAL HANDLES IN EQ (EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE)
DEVELOPMENT" WITH THE HGC TEAM: GREG WIENS, MAX STROTHER,
KEN LOVE & SUSAN HOAK CONFERENCE CALL: AUGUST
4TH, 2009 AT 11:00 A.M.(EST) COACHING IS AS CLOSE AS THE PHONE This one
hour conference call will focus on practical handles in developing EQ.
EQ unlike IQ can develop and grow. Additionally, EQ is said to be an
important indicator of successful leadership. EQ is best developed in
the context of trust and transparent relationships. The call
will center around the "how questions" of EQ such as: á
How do I know my EQ? á
How do I read emotions in myself or others? á
How do we lead our staff in EQ development? á
How do we build trust so we can work on EQ? á
How do I manage emotions not control them? á
How do I leverage EQ in relationship management? á
How do I process EQ with my spouse? á
How do I know what I am feeling? The first
step in EQ development is to know what your EQ is. If you desire to
take the HGC online tool for EQ, we are making it available to those on the
previous call for $10 each. If you have staff members who were
not on the call or someone you think would benefit from our follow-up call,
they too can access the online tool for $15 each. This call is free
to covenant churches or if you were on the previous call.
Otherwise, this call costs $10. We would
like to integrate your questions for the call. In order to do that,
please email your questions here. To
register, click here for the call and to take the HGC EQ
tool. If you have additional questions, email Susan. Please
send checks to: Florida Church of God Ministries, Inc. Attn: Conference Call 5826 Hoffner Ave. #1001 Orlando, FL 32822 To pay by PayPal,
