The Performance KIT
"Do you best to present yourself as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth."
-- Apostle Paul, in his second letter to disciple Timothy, Chapter 2, Verse 15
Performance training not helps present the gospel more effectively, it improves the spiritual health of team members by encouraging Bible study and preparation.
