vision - in many churches, this can be the death nail. why? so many churches lose the vision they once had. or worse, they keep the vision, but add on to that vision to the point of creating an unwieldy monster where that earliest vision is nothing more than words.
so how does a church keep the vision simple and focused? it really boils down to leadership. if leadership vears off the vision or constantly makes changes, the vision dies.
so here we are. we know the vision. to reach people for Christ. so what else do we need to do? make sure we as leaders stay focused. in all we do, we have to ask ourselves, how is this helping bring people back to God?
one of the reasons we want to meet for our vip room is to keep us focused, but to also develop leaders. that is why we are also working on a coaching plan for our leaders. once we begin to develop leaders and have coaching in place, our vision will stay focused.
i want us to be a church that continues to impact lives long after i am gone! so let's start leading, let's start coaching, and let's start changing lives beyond anything we can imagine!
