Preparation that will Focus Your Campaign


After you register, you will receive a complete Campaign Resource Kit containing everything you will need to prepare for your Campaign. For a Campaign of this magnitude, it is ideal to have a three-month lead time for preparation. The registration for the Campaign is cut off 10 weeks ahead of the start date.

1. PRE-CAMPAIGN TRAINING
In three video training tapes and a detailed Training Manual (all included in the church resource kit), we'll walk you through the Campaign step-by-step. In ten sessions you'll learn how to:
  • Select a leadership team to shepherd the church through the Campaign.
  • Build momentum for the campaign through strategic communications.
  • Maximize your weekend programming to encourage commitment to the purposes.
  • Launch small groups and use the group curriculum.
  • Start building the purposes into the lives of your youth and children with specialized resources.
  • Organize a Ministry and Missions Fair which expands the reach of your ministries by energizing more people to serve.
  • Plan an end-of-Campaign Celebration Sunday to commemorate the 40-day journey.

2. SEVEN WEEKEND SERVICE PLANS INCLUDING SUGGESTED SERMONS
You'll be given seven worship service plans, which include the messages Rick Warren preached on each purpose at Saddleback along with his research notes. You can use these messages in any way you wish in your preparation to speak on each purpose. You will also have access to view all of Saddleback's Campaign services on the Internet so you can see how we designed each service to challenge our church.

3. ONGOING COACHING
Before and during the Campaign, you'll have the opportunity to connect with the Purpose Driven team on the web and by phone to ask your specific questions about 40 Days of Purpose. If you would choose, we'll also point you to churches who did 40 Days of Purpose earlier so they can give you their insights. The bottom line is that we won't leave you hanging!

Church Resource Specialties, our ministry partners in Australia, have a team of people who can advise you on all aspects of your campaign. Contact Us.

4. PRAYER EMPHASIS - Including a National Day of Prayer
Prayer is the most important component of this Campaign. Without God's power, our labor will be in vain. The Campaign must be saturated in prayer, so we'll share customizable ideas and tools to promote individual, group and corporate prayer. Often in the Bible, God's people fasted and prayed immediately before a major victory, miracle, or answer to prayer. It prepared them for a blessing! Join with other churches in 40 Days of Purpose for the National Day of Prayer and Fasting on Saturday, 11th February. This is a significant day of heart preparation and soul renewal that will release God's supernatural power for the next 40 days.

5. YOUTH AND CHILDREN'S MINISTRY CURRICULUM
The Campaign isn't just for adults! The purposes are applicable, regardless of age. For youth, you will receive the messages that Doug Fields, Student Pastor at Saddleback, taught during 40 Days of Purpose, plus all of our small group study guides. All of these materials will be provided on the Resource CD and on the website. For children's ministry, you'll receive several choices of curriculum, in-class activities and take-home materials for preschool through sixth grade.

RESOURCE CD-ROM
You will receive a CD with over 200 different resources that you can customize to fit your church's style and denominational distinctives. With the exception of the Purpose Driven Life book and the Small Group Videos, this CD provides you with all of the necessary Campaign materials and resources in Word, Excel and PDF formats.
