In my leadership conferences, pastors ask, "Do you have a vision for my church?" Many times they want me to give them a picture of where they should go and what their church should look like. When these pastors do this, I always feel bad.

There was a very cautious man Who never laughed or played He never risked, he never tried, He never sang or prayed. And when he on day passed away, His insurance was denied, For since he never really lived, They claimed he never really died. (Anonymous poem)

The depth of your mythology is the extent of your effectiveness.

Never allow others to think you always have the best answers. This will only make them dependent on you.

I felt the hand and the call of God in my life that I would be doing ministry and trying to serve Him the best that I could.

Without leadership ability,a person's impact is only a fraction of what it could be with good leadership.

For the person trying to do everything alone, the game really is over. If you want to do something big, you must link up with others. One is too small a number to achieve greatness. That's the Law of Significance.
