Leadership Thoughts

• It takes time to clean people up. Many churches don’t make them comfortable or accepted enough to hang around that long.
  
  
• If we can create places where hell-bound people feel welcome, they will come and hang out… eventually meeting Christ.
  
  
• It’s easier to get to heaven than it is into some churches.
  
  
• Serving people and being a ‘people pleaser’ are two different things.
  
  
• The more God does through you, the more critics will come after you. You have to be okay with that.
  
  
• Fear of God is the best remedy to overcoming the fear of people.
  
  
• Everybody wants to reach people until you actually start “reaching” people. It’s messy.
  
  
• If your church is an Acts chapter 2 church, it should be 1/3 sinners, 1/3 new believers, and 1/3 maturing believers.
  
  
• I know a lot of guys who love their theology or methods more than they love Jesus.
  
  
• If you are not reaching people for Jesus and discipling them, we must have different Bibles.
