• Organizations are stuck: Borders, GM, UMC, Church of England as examples
• Churches are stuck too in areas like worship attendance, giving, discipleship, volunteers, outreach, leadership development, communications, etc.

• TEAM DISCUSSION: Where are you stuck?
• Churches continue to use their same systems, but they hope and pray for different results. The only way to get different results is to engage different systems.

• When there's a systems gap, churches end up just “doing church”; they do what churches have always done.
• "What makes people work is an idea worth working for, along with a clear understanding of what needs to be done." -Michael Gerber, The E-Myth Revisited

• “For God is not a God of disorder but of peace.” (I Corinthians 14:33)

Order turns chaotic situations the right way round
Our society is plagued with disorder
Signs farms etc have straight lines etc
![Page 23: Mensah Otabil on ORDER!](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052213/5a64b1d87f8b9a735d8b45fd/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Its human beings that refuse to exert order over the environment as God expects us
Poverty is a function of disorder in our lives. its not spiritual.

1 Kings 18:33 KJV:

So we use so much efforts and get little results
I believe the main thing is disorder
Bring order into our lives

• Exodus 13:18 (NKJV)
• 18 So God led the people around by way of the wilderness of the Red Sea. And the children of Israel went up in orderly ranks out of the land of Egypt.

• After being slaves for 430 years yet if there was a million on the lawn would our people go in order
• Japan after the tsunami or Singapore you cants spit not to talk of paper or refuse

Chaos is controlling us here
Children do they listen to their parents or wives their husbands etc order
We think being orderly is a weakness
It’s a discipline we need and I need
![Page 34: Mensah Otabil on ORDER!](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052213/5a64b1d87f8b9a735d8b45fd/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Chaos has become our normal
Put structure systems and processes together
We can own our own houses and land and empower each other but it can only come through order
![Page 35: Mensah Otabil on ORDER!](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052213/5a64b1d87f8b9a735d8b45fd/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
It’s a 20 year plan
You don’t start a work as the boss you work your way up and If you are 50 in 20 years your are 70 wether you plan or not
You can live behind assets not liabilities

Mandela 27 years in prison
And his last 20 years were impactful
Our goal and purpose to eradicate poverty
Each person, at least worth 1 million dollars
![Page 37: Mensah Otabil on ORDER!](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052213/5a64b1d87f8b9a735d8b45fd/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
I CAN CHANGE MY CHURCH AND MY PEOPLE
I AM PRESIDENT HERE AND GOVERNORS ETC
we need to take our lives seriously
We can build community by ourselves in an orderly manner
![Page 38: Mensah Otabil on ORDER!](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052213/5a64b1d87f8b9a735d8b45fd/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
I need to see some changes
If you are okay help others who are not okay
No welfare system or unemployment benefits nor your pension keep you in the next 20 years
Take radical steps than just depending on government and your children
![Page 39: Mensah Otabil on ORDER!](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052213/5a64b1d87f8b9a735d8b45fd/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
I don’t want to be 80 years waiting for my children to look after me and I want to be richer at 80
I want to be far better to visit by the grandchildren than their parents
![Page 40: Mensah Otabil on ORDER!](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052213/5a64b1d87f8b9a735d8b45fd/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
I can’t promise you anything much will change but as the years go by we would see many changes and your dream coming through
![Page 41: Mensah Otabil on ORDER!](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052213/5a64b1d87f8b9a735d8b45fd/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
