==============

I see awardings in the BIBLE. 

Do you too?

-- pastor jr 

Here's # 1
1 Corinthians 9:24 (Amplified Bible) "Do you not know that in a race all the runners compete, but [only] one receives the prize? So run [your race] that you may lay hold [of the prize] and make it yours." 

Here's # 2
Hebrews 11:6 "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." 

Here's # 3
Matthew 25:23 "His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!' 

Here's # 4
2 Timothy 4:8 "Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing." 

Here's # 5
James 1:12 "Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him." AND on and on and on .... there are rewards, awards, crowns, "well dones", praises and congratulations in the Word of God! 

================================

The LTS G-AWARDS are given to people who have developed and released disciples under them to become LIFEGROUP Leaders.

• The G12 Award is the highest award - meaning: He / She has produced and released 12 LifeGroup Leaders under him / her. Others Awards are G1, G2, G3 and so on.
• Since LTS is for "GENERATIONAL Leadership", the passage of Paul in 2 Timothy 2:2-- "And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others", come to perspective during this "Awards Night".
• Notice:We are concentrating on the ability of the 3rd Generation to affect the 4th Generation in this passage of Scripture (2 Timothy 2:2). You would note that the "you" here refers to Timothy. While the "me" here refers to Paul. And the "reliable men" here are people who are qualified to teach "others" -- these are the 3rd and 4th Generations respectively from Paul. 
• During the Awards Night, we are awarding the "RELIABLE MEN / WOMEN". These are the folks who have been proven to be faithful and reliable towards the Vision of Disciple-making. They are people who have produced other LIFEGROUP Leaders under them. Well, this is at least how we would like to apply it at HLM. 

THEY (CANDIDATES FOR AWARDS NIGHT) HAVE:

1. They have produced or released at least one LIFEGROUP Leader/s under them.
2. They are meeting regularly in an L-Group set up. L-Group stands for Leadership Group. 
3. The LIFEGROUP  Leaders under them are enrolled in the LTS program curriculum.
4. The LIFEGROUP Leaders under them began leading a month previous to the AWARDS Night.
