I'm taking our board through the book, Good to Great, by Jim Collins. I enjoyed this quote from page 11, "Greatness is not a function of circumstance. Greatness, it turns out, is largely a matter of conscious choice."
I think I'm really going to enjoy going through this book with some of the leadership in our church.

ReplyDeleteKris,
ReplyDeleteit's a great book, but hard. we went through it as a staff here, but when we got to the hard part our senior pastor at the time shut down the study. if you work through it all, and do it honestly, you will really do well. just remember- a church is not a business, and great for us is different than it is for the world.....have fun.
Mike,
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to digging out principles and applying what we can. Thanks for the heads up.
