As the saying goes, what got you here won’t get you there. The skills that got you to where you are today in church leadership won’t get you to where you want to be.
And that’s never been more true than it is now.

There’s a good chance that your church has core value statements. But whether they actually mean something to your staff, leaders, and members may be up for question.
And let’s face it, many core value statements sound so generic that they’re meaningless, if not also ironic.
Rather famously, integrity, respect and excellence were three of corporate fraudster Enron’s values before the energy company collapsed after it was discovered that their top executives laundered money, engaged in insider trading and embezzled tens of millions of dollars.

Working in ministry comes with a unique set of challenges when it comes to efficiency… and your never-ending list of responsibilities is just one of them.
