BEST QUOTES

“Even established churches have a lack of a structured leadership development pipeline.”

“Even though leadership development has components of discipleship, they are not the same thing.”

“For us, leadership is vision plus faith plus execution.”

“You’re not a leader if no one is following you; you are just taking a walk.”

“One of the ways we slow down leadership development is we want people to be able to do what we do at the level the we do it right out of the gate before they are ready.”

“Savvy people will always outweigh savvy policies.”

“Success is becoming who God has created you to be and multiplying yourself there.”

“There are far too many people who are planting churches who should not be planting churches.”

“Everybody wants to be finished product, but nobody wants to go through the fire.”

“Giving someone a job and giving someone authority are two very different things.”

“The first quality of a leader is being self aware. If you are not self aware, you are not a leader.”

“The church should be producing better leaders than anyone else on the planet.”
