FIVE KINDS OF PEOPLE:
Adapted from Restoring Your Spiritual Passion by Gordon MacDonald
- PERSON #1 – VRPs – Very Resourceful People (Paul)
- PERSON #2 – VIPs – Very Important People (Barnabas)
- PERSON #3 – VTPs – Very Trainable People (Timothy)
- PERSON #4 – VNPs – Very Nice People
- PERSON #5 – VDPs – Very Draining People
NEXT STEPS:
- Identify 2-3 people from each category. Who are you spending most of your time with? What adjustments do you need to make?
- How can you protect yourself from difficult people without writing them off?
- Discuss how you process complaints, grumbling and rebels.
- Who is your Paul, Barnabas, and Timothy?
