“Leadership in church is one of the biggest challenges that the Church is facing because without strong leadership, the church rarely lives out its redemptive potentials.”

The grander the vision the greater the price tag.

Our conduct will never change God’s character.

You can never underestimate the amount of energy and frequency you must give to vision casting. You can never underestimate it.

I’m praying to the God who has always been faithful to me, who has never let me down no matter how frightened I was or how difficult the situation looked.

He [God] wants us to talk to him as to a friend or father – authentically, reverently, personally, earnestly.

And when enough churches are thriving, you can affect a region, a country, and eventually the entire world with the positive, life-changing power of Jesus Christ and the redeeming and restoring work of his people.

Most unmarried people have no idea what it takes to make a marriage work; they grossly underestimate the price people have to pay to build long-term, mutually satisfying relationships.

If you’re a serious minded leader, you will read. You will read all you can. You will read when you feel like it, and you will read when you don’t.

Nothing on earth has greater potential to change lives and carry out His kingdom work in your community, than your local church.

Our minds, like the needle in that compass, can focus on a variety of subjects throughout the day. But in the end, when they’re left alone to settle, they’ll focus on the objects of our greatest affection.

Don’t steamroll your way into a conversation before establishing any relational credibility.

Many leadership problems are driven by low self-awareness.

Leadership grit begets grit. Lead by example.

We live in a world that is crying out for better leadership.

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

And they fail to understand that the only people with the strength to pay that price are those who have plumbed the depths of their relationship with God, and have dealt with their own brokenness.

The church is not the way to heaven; the church is the sign that points to heaven.

Have you ever wondered what a church full of Pharisees would be like? 1. They would all attend every service 2. They would all tithe 3. They would all work in the church 4. They would all go to hell

I believe that a great number of people are going to die and go to hell because they’re counting on their religiosity in the church instead of their relationship with Jesus to get them to heaven.

A church is an incubator, a nursery, a grade school. You start where people are and move them to where they need to be.

The Church is not a showboat; it’s a battleship.

However, the assaults against the church will be turned around, and everything that the enemy meant for harm will ultimately be used for good.

Most problems in contemporary churches can be explained by the fact that members have never decided to follow Christ.

It’s just stunning to watch churches struggle to get mission statements when there it is, the Great Commission, and they should simply do what it says.
