John C. MaxwellWhen I had something I thought God was talking to me about, the first thing I did, before I ever talked to the congregation, was to sit down with the major influencers of the church and share with them what I thought God was speaking to me.

Other times they added value and helped make this vision better or more accessible to the people.
