"And he went into the synagogue and spoke boldly for three months, reasoning and persuading concerning the thing of the kingdom of God.
But when some were hardened and did not believe, but spoke evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them and withdrew the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.
And this continued for two years, so that all who dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks." Acts 19:8-10
Paul began a miniature seminary in Ephesus to teach students the ins and outs of the Gospel. For two years he rounded up men and trained them in the lecture hall of Tyrannus. As he mentored students, Paul remained committed to the people, to the process, and to the purpose.
Consider how we can do the same as we develop others:

Leadership Promises - As They are Training Others. |
Consider how we can do the same as we develop others:
- Be familiar with your strengths and weaknesses.
- Know the people you wish to develop.
- Clearly define the goals and assignments.
- Allow them to watch you serve and lead.
- Hold them accountable for their work.
- Give them the freedom to fail.
