But as I poured out my anger on the world, Jesus was waiting to pour out his perfect love.

People are not on the bus to get you to your destination; they are the destination. People worshipping Jesus and sharing His love with others.

"You are the green berets in the Kingdom. You're on the frontline. You're doing the job that is often thankless but is perhaps most important."

“It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that if you’re maximizing growth, you’re also maximizing success.” (Bo Burlingham, in Small Giants)

It’s better and easier to encourage a servant to lead than to get a leader to serve.

Rick Warren, Matt Chandler, and other Christian leaders share how the innovative Leadership Network founder influenced their ministries.
