Live each day with an open ear toward heaven, eager to respond to any whisper from God.

If you are too busy or too proud to pray with your children, you are too busy and too proud.

One of the greatest joys of leadership is assembling and knitting together teams of fantastic people.

God is looking for women and men who are full on for Him... people who have abandoned their own program and are just looking for how they can use their unique talents and abilities to further God's activities and programs in this world. These are the people God will tap on the shoulder and say, “Come with me and we're going to do something great in your lifetime. Come, we're going to do this together.

If you’re a serious minded leader, you will read. You will read all you can. You will read when you feel like it, and you will read when you don’t. You will do whatever you have to do to increase your leadership input, because you know as well as I do that it will make you better.

Wise leaders understand that the single greatest determinant of whether followers will ever own a vision deeply is the extent to which whose followers believe the leader will own it.

Leadership requires a non-stop demand of fortitude from Day 1 to the end.
