You don't have to be any more talented, any richer, any slimmer, any smarter, any more or less of anything to partner with God. All you have to be is willing to be used by him in everyday way

Leaders, your God-given job is not merely to preside over something, not to pontificate to your underlings how smart you are, not merely to preserve something from its gradual demise; it's to figure out what God wants to get done in this world, figure out what role you play in that, and then to move something or someone from here to there.

It's incredible to realize that what we do each day has meaning in the big picture of God's plan

Destructive fear must be stopped in its tracks or it will undermine the life God invites us to live.

Authentic Christians are persons who stand apart from others. Their character seems deeper, their ideas fresher, their spirit softer, their courage greater, their leadership stronger, their concerns wider, their compassion more genuine and their convictions more concrete.

Nothing that matters in this world happens unless leaders lead it.

To be developed as a leader, failure must be allowed. Failure only helps us improve.
