“I realized that something crucial was amiss…. I saw the same people rotating in and out of leadership positions. I realized that my church had a glaring absence of fresh faces, young leaders eager to step into roles of influence.” - GARBC Blog

Many people hold back, fearing they can’t perform perfectly. I realized the significance of setting a new standard of service at my church. That new standard focused on people doing their best within their spiritual journeys and with the wisdom God was cultivating in them. Asking for people’s best is about guiding and empowering people to make sound decisions and relying on the leading and wisdom of the Holy Spirit.

By lowering the bar of leadership expectations, my church made leadership accessible to a broader spectrum of people in the congregation.

I now understand that the key to developing leaders is investing in people who wholeheartedly pursue Christ.

Those who live out Christ’s greatest commandments are the ones truly prepared to humbly lead people.
