    BEST QUOTES
    “We want to be sure our current campuses are healthy, bursting at the seams, instead of continuing to launch new campuses while our current campuses are struggling.”
    “We must shift from being staff-led to volunteer body of Christ driven.”
    “Hiring staff over raising up volunteers is a detriment to the body.”
    “People want to have purpose. People want to have impact. People want to be used. We’ve stolen that from people by paying positions.”
    “When volunteers carry the passion instead of just your staff, it’s uncontrollable.”
    “You don’t find great leaders. You create them and help build them.”
    “You have amazing people around you. Start pouring into them.”
    “I need to constantly be learning.”
    “I have something to learn from everybody.”
    “My dad was so quick to say “Thank you” and “I’m sorry.” That’s something I hope to pass on to my own kids.”
    “I want my kids to know I’m a follower of Jesus, not just a paid pastor. I want them to see my joy and my struggles in following Jesus.”
    “My greatest moments of leadership are singing worship songs with my kids.”
    “I want my kids to have no jadedness toward the church but a deep love for the church.”

    In this episode of the 5 Leadership Questions podcast, Todd Adkins and Daniel Im are joined by energetic couple, Bob and Maria Goff. You probably know Bob from is book Love Wins, and Maria from her book Love Lives Here. During this lively conversation, they discuss the importance of caring for people, being available to others, and how to keep your faith simple.
    BEST QUOTES
    “Keep your faith simple and keep your relationships simple.”

    “I’ve always looked to the people who are out in front of me as well as looking over my shoulder at who is coming up behind me.”

    “The people in front of me give me hope for what is to come and the ones behind me keep me motivated to keep going.”

    “We need to keep our eyes on our own paper. We need to figure out who we are, and how God has made us and wired us.”

    “What happens in leadership is that you become less and less available, and you become less and less imitators of what Jesus did.”

    “I tend to be in proximity to people rather than being present.”

    “Be all there, wherever you are.”

    “I haven’t had a quiet time in 20 years. Mine are super loud.”

    “If you want to find out what’s actually true, listen to Jesus.”

    “She is not trying to be like me. I’m not trying to be like her. We are trying to be like Jesus.”

    “How is your life working for the people around you?”

    “If someone give you advice that rhymes, run.”

    “Surround yourself with people who make you feel hungry in your faith, strong in your resolve, and more available to your family.”

  • 5LQ Episode 174: Designed to Lead – Practical Takeaways –
    This week we are doing something different – we are walking through the book Designed to Lead, with the authors Eric Geiger and Kevin Peck. Over the course of the week, we will release a podcast each day. If what you hear interests you, make sure to order the book here. To learn more about developing leaders in your church, check out the Pipeline conference with Eric Geiger and the Lifeway Leadership team.

    In this episode, Todd Adkins, Eric Geiger, and Kevin Peck discuss some practical takeaways from Designed to Lead and answer the following questions:

    * What is the net result when one of the three pieces of the framework of Designed to Lead isn’t working?
    * What’s the best response if one of the 3 areas of the framework is lacking?
    * Which of these 3 areas (conviction, culture, or constructs) is the best place for a church to start developing leaders?
    * Can this framework of leadership development be implemented in a single ministry area, or does it have to be church wide?
    * How can a church continue as a leadership development locus over time?

    QUOTES
    “The result at the end of the day is you just aren’t going to develop leaders over the long haul.”

    “In the long run, if you lack conviction, culture, or constructs you are not going to get a sustainable model for leadership development. If you lack any of them, the system falls apart.”

    “If you have conviction without constructs, not only are the people frustrated, but really the ministry leaders are.”

    “Constructs without culture leads to exhaustion.”

    “The harnessing power of making a culture change is going to be a convicted leader.”

    “You want to win quick and win obviously and that will help people around you see the value of what you are trying to accomplish.”

    “There is no one in God’s church who doesn’t think we ought to be producing leaders.”

    “You never want to rush through a pipeline.”

    “So many times we forget the why and forget to tell the stories and really celebrate what has happened.”

    “There’s two things we know that take a lot of time: changing a culture and leadership development.”

    “Leadership development is a long run play.”

    “When we look at the church as a whole, we have tons and tons of dollars invested in performing ministry, rather than preparing people to do ministry. That shouldn't be so.”

    “We are a microwave culture, and we want to see things happen quickly.”

    This week we are doing something different – we are walking through the book Designed to Lead, with the authors Eric Geiger and Kevin Peck. Over the course of the week, we will release a podcast each day. If what you hear interests you, make sure to order the book here. To learn more about developing leaders in your church, check out the Pipeline conference with Eric Geiger and the Lifeway Leadership team.

    In this episode, Todd Adkins, Eric Geiger, and Kevin Peck discuss the importance of helpful constructs to systematically and intentionally build leaders. During their conversation, they answer the following questions:

    * How do you ensure steps not programs?
    * How do constructs fit into a spirit led ministry?
    * What are some of the pitfalls of being overly construct focused?
    * How can a leader determine if their church has effective constructs in place?
    * How do you use case studies to help with constructs?

    QUOTES
    “The construct is not the end game. It is simply the tool to help the building happen.”

    “The construct of leadership development, like a leadership pipeline, is not about having a pipeline as much as it is a tool to help get to the end result of people being built up.”

    “Constructs are important, but they are the third thing we talk about.”

    “God has chosen throughout history to work in systems.”

    “Not only do you form culture, but culture is always forming you.”

    “A construct can either enable a desired piece of culture, or it can resist a desired piece of culture.”

    “Be shaping culture because culture will always be shaping you.”

    “You always have to repent and come back to the sacred why of you do. Otherwise a construct can just be mindless execution.”

    "However if you don’t have a construct, you’ll have a conviction and won’t have a tool to help build it.”

    “The processes are for the people. The people aren’t for the processes.”

    “Find what kind of leaders you want to develop and then measure over time if you are getting them.”
