People join organizations, they leave managers.
Don't get so addicted to vision that the people feel like equipment
The Church will never reach her full redemptive potential until men and women with the leadership gift step up and lead.
We live in a world that is crying out for better leadership.
Playing around is one thing; following an established regimen is quite another. It's true with exercise equipment and it is true with prayer.
Whenever you see something going well - whenever light begins to chase back the darkness that threatens to engulf our world - look closely. There stands a leader who is holding that candle.
It takes a great deal of courage to follow another person's lead.
God wants to father all of us until we're dead sure of his approval, his guiding power and his promise of heaven.
Leadership in church is one of the biggest challenges that the Church is facing because without strong leadership, the church rarely lives out its redemptive potentials.
Leaders need to have a ruthless commitment to resolving relational conflict regardless of how bad it feels.
The leader is the organization's top strategist... systematically envisioning the future and specifically mapping out how to get there.
Our conduct will never change God's character.
Legacy leaders are the only ones wiling to pay the price to fix a broken culture.

We should have gotten people, taught people, how to read their bible between service, how to do the spiritual practices much more aggressively on their own.
