Whenever we are stalled in an area of ministry, I like to invite different voices to brainstorm and develop new ideas. Granted this takes creativity, especially when finances are stretched, but always hearing “we can’t afford that” or “we aren’t big enough to do that” is never motivating to a team. Burdensome bureaucracies.

We purposely developed some common language that would serve as rallying points for the church. I didn’t come up with those exclusively — we developed them as a team — but I led the charge and micromanaged to keep us on that track until it began to stick as our common vision. Bureaucracy and process we know well.

We purposely developed some common language which would serve as rallying points for the church in the years to come. I didn’t come up with those exclusively — we developed them as a team — but I led the charge and micromanaged to keep us on track until it began to stick as our common vision. New expenditures.
