Podcast Episode #198

Will Mancini joins us to discuss his latest book, God Dreams, and talk about how church leaders can effectively cast vision.

Some highlights from today's episode include:

* We shouldn't relegate the idea of being visionary to "superstar" pastors and leaders.

* Visionary leadership is accessible to all church leaders. Vision is for everyone. Vision is for every day.

* Visionary leadership is about serving people with a simple picture of where you're going next as a church.

* Clarity isn't everything, but it changes everything.

* It's not about what vision you choose, but whether or not everyone is on the same page with the vision that is chosen.

* We don't need to be afraid of having a vision for our church.
