This is the only leadership life I get, my one and only shot at following God the way I feel him prompting me to do so. This isn't some pre-game warm-up. It's the game, and the clock is ticking!

You can never underestimate the amount of energy and frequency you must give to vision casting. You can never underestimate it.

The heart and soul of the Christian life is learning to hear God's voice and then developing the courage to do what he asks us to do.

We made a mistake. What we should have done when people crossed the line of faith and become Christians, we should have started telling people and teaching people that they have to take responsibility to become 'self feeders.' 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.

The leader is the organization's top strategist... systematically envisioning the future and specifically mapping out how to get there.

If you lower the ambient noise of your life and listen expectantly for those whispers of God, your ears will hear them. And when you follow their lead, your world will be rocked.

The Church will never reach her full redemptive potential until men and women with the leadership gift step up and lead.
