What percentage should you give? I tell people to start with 10 percent because the Bible writers have a lot to say about the tithe, which means, "tenth." For some people, that's extremely uncomfortable. But so is a colonoscopy, and those save countless lives.

People pray in one direction but they walk in a different direction, and direction always determines where we end up.

We are not all leaders. We are called leaders.

If we want to reach the people that no one else is reaching, we've got to do things that no one else is doing.

If a leader goes with their gut, it should be after listening first to people they trust.

We always have more ideas than we can fund.

Any fear associated with giving to God's kingdom is irrational. It's on par with a farmer who, out of fear of losing his seed, refuses to plant his fields.
