- We don't need to fear power; we need to follow the example
of Jesus. By doing so, we break the power of self-centeredness in our
leadership. -Andy Stanley
- The impact you have on people you manage is probably
greater than your influence with anyone you will volunteer to serve.
When we manage somebody, we're ministering to them. -Patrick
Lencioni
- Christianity is like the ark. It stinks sometimes, but if
you get out you'll drown. -Shane Claiborne
- When I get to heaven, I don't want to watch Jesus spew my
sheep out of his mouth. No, I'd rather have a select few behind me and
be able to say, "Jesus, these are all I had left, but they are crazy in
love with you. The sacrificed all of their lives to serve you."
-Francis Chan
- Society can be divided into seven sphere of influence. If
you want to engage in society and shape it, you must take part in every
sphere. The church has made a mistake of being involved in only one
aspect of society-the spiritual arena, while abandoning the others like
politics, economics and business, education, media and entertainment,
and sports. -Pastor Sunday Adelaja
- If you want God's blessings and anointing on your life and
you want to be used in ways you never thought possible, then you have
to get with his agenda. He hasn't promised to bless your agenda. He has
promised to bless his purposes. - Craig Groeschel
- If I could ask for one thing in your life, I would ask that
you become a person who is intentional about adding value to the people
around you. -John Maxwell
- Learn to act your wage. The Bible teaches that a foolish
man devours all he has. If you spend all of your income, you're a
fool. -Dave Ramsey
- The human spirit cannot live in falsehood. We are designed
to live in truth. Our souls long for the authentic and the real. We can
give no greater gift than to help one another write an authentic human
narrative for our lives. -Erwin McManus
- The system you inherit, adopt, or create will eventually
impact what your staff and volunteers do. Because we don't understand
the nature of systems, we blame our people. In reality, it's not a
people problem, it's a systems problem. -Andy Stanley
