We aren’t in charge of the mission 

• That is the burden of leadership. That is directed by scripture. 
• If you can’t accept that, you either need to do the work to be in leadership, or move on to a place where you are on board with the mission.

You are stalling the mission if you are:

• Spending your time defending your trade over the mission
• Verbalizing disagreement with the mission 
• Arguing against on mission decisions that require more work or aren’t exciting 

You are supporting the mission if you are:

• Spending your time figuring out how your trade can support the mission 
• Asking questions about clarifying the mission
• Defending the mission even when it means more work for you or unexciting projects 

You can the power to spread the mission by:

• Helping others make these pivots 

Bottom line:

Each of us has been hired to move the mission of the church forward, not turn the church into a playground for our industries.
