People won't give their best unless their leader challenges them to do so.

You're a leader. It's your job to keep your passion hot. Do whatever you have to do, read whatever you have to read, go wherever you have to go to stay fired up. And don't apologize to anybody.

Truly, spiritual courage is on the endangered character-quality list.

If the request is wrong, God says, No. If the timing is wrong, God says, Slow. If you are wrong, God says, Grow. But if the request is right, the timing is right and you are right, God says, Go!

Your energy and the ability to energize others is more valuable than your time.

It's a huge responsibility to have influence and to steward it in a way that leads to God-honoring leadership.

When you get to the end will God say, "Well done," or, "What was up with that?"
