Each task is one twenty-to-thirty-minute action — the kind of work that ships before the day ends, not the kind that lingers on your todo list. Open it, do it, react ✓ in the cohort channel when it’s shipped.
WEEK 10 · TASK 1
The Watchman's Daily Devotion (Personal)
AI builds your personal devo. Run it seven days. Tune it.
Before you disciple anyone else, your own walk has to be fed. This week you have AI build a personal daily devotion tuned to where you actually are — a passage, a short reflection, a prayer prompt — and you run it for seven days. Then you tune it. Drop whatever doesn't feed you; this is a meal, not a performance.
Action checklist
- Tell AI where you are spiritually right now and what you want to grow in.
- Have it build a 7-day devotion: a passage, a brief reflection, and a prayer prompt each day.
- Run it for seven days — same time, same place.
- Tune it. Keep what fed you; cut what was filler. Build week two from what worked.
FEED YOURSELF FIRST
The watchman who never eats can't stand the watch. A leader running on empty has nothing to give — guard your own intake before you scale to others.
SCRIPTURE
John 15:5 — "He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing." The devotion is abiding, not box-checking. Stay connected to the Vine first.

WEEK 10 · TASK 2
Pastoral Counseling Prep Workflow (with Redlines)
AI assists the prep. Never the content of the conversation.
For the men in this cohort who shepherd others, this is the most important boundary in the course. AI can help you PREPARE for a counseling conversation — frameworks, relevant Scriptures, questions to ask — but it never touches the content of what's shared in confidence. This week you build the prep workflow and you practice the boundary explicitly, out loud, so it's reflex when the real conversation comes.
Action checklist
- Build a prep workflow: given a general situation (no names, no identifying detail), AI offers frameworks, Scriptures, and questions.
- Practice the redline explicitly:
- Never enter what a person shared in confidence.
- Never enter names or identifying details.
- The prep is for your readiness; the conversation stays sealed.
- Write your counseling redline down and keep it with your Week 11 Redlines.
- Use the prep workflow for one upcoming conversation — prep only.
THE SEAL IS SACRED
What's spoken in confidence is sealed, full stop — no model, no note, no exception. Break that and you've broken the trust that makes shepherding possible. The prep helps you; the secret stays.
SCRIPTURE
Proverbs 11:13 — "A talebearer reveals secrets, but he who is of a faithful spirit conceals a matter." Faithfulness here is non-negotiable. The tool never gets what the brother told you in trust.

WEEK 10 · TASK 3
Build a Discipleship Cohort Prompt-Pack
Ten prompts for a man you're mentoring. Test on one.
You're being trained to train others — that's the whole arc, and it lands next week. This week you build a prompt-pack you could hand to a man you're discipling: ten prompts that walk him through a life inventory, hard-conversation prep, a prayer rhythm, the watchman's posture. Then you test it on one real person and iterate on what actually hit.
Action checklist
- Draft ten prompts you'd give a man you're mentoring, covering:
- A life inventory across the five domains.
- Hard-conversation preparation.
- Building a prayer and Scripture rhythm.
- Adopting the watchman's posture toward technology.
- Test the pack on ONE real person this week.
- Watch what helped and what confused. Iterate.
- Save the refined pack — it's a tool you'll hand off in Week 12.
MULTIPLICATION STARTS WITH ONE
You don't disciple a crowd; you disciple a man, and he disciples a man. Build the pack, but test it on one real brother — the feedback is worth more than the theory.
SCRIPTURE
2 Timothy 2:2 — "The things that you have heard from me... commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also." Four generations in one verse. The pack is a tool for the handoff.
