We presented the Revolution 180 plan to a group of about 25 people last night. Probably 20 of them say they want to sign up for the Basic Training stint.
During the first initial two month stint, each participant will have obligations within each of the True North Principles that we are setting up. We probably should write a manifesto or something!
We base the True North principles on H.E.A.R.T. to God, H.A.N.D. to Man. Each letter stands for something - and that is what we use as our basis.
Each person will be committed to a specific community outreach (their choice), to participating in one of the weekly community meals (eating, cooking, and cleaning up), to a weekly time in the Prayer Room on Fridays or at 8:12prayer, to reading the Bible on a daily basis (saysoaps.com), to be in a weekly small group meeting, and to serve for two months in a specific area of church ministry (their choice). Church attendance is a given, as is being a soldier or an adherent of The Salvation Army. It sounds easy but it is not for the faint-hearted.
We will hand out Rev180 notebooks that they can keep their papers and notes and cool pics in - and at the end of the first two months, we might even give away cool T-shirts. (For now, we just tell everyone to go to SAYTUNES and win a free t-shirt . . .LOL).
This blog will be used as a progress report for what we are doing specifically in the Rev180 project. We also have a corps blog complete with podcasts, other blog sites for the pocket groups of the revolution, etc etc etc, yada yada yada
