‘Creating Personal Spiritual Momentum’
- “The way I was doing the work of God was destroying the work of God in me.” – Bill Hybels (via Craig)
- The single greatest thing you can do to create momentum in your church or ministry is to bring about spiritual momentum in your personal life.
- I will do TODAY what I can do TODAY, to enable me to do TOMORROW what I can’t do TODAY!
- Four things to do today:
1) Do something to defeat your dark side (your sinful self).
2) Create artificial ministry deadlines.
3) Delegate what someone else can do.
4) Do something only you can do.
- (On delegation) You can have high control and low growth, OR you can have low control and high growth.
- Pastors who don’t take time off do so for two reasons: Pride & Poor Leadership.
- If you come to these events, and see these big churches, and think that all of this success comes from anything other that a deep burden born in the heart of a leader to see people enter into relationship with Jesus, then you are severly missing the point. (WOW)
*Craig knocked it out of the park on this talk. He closed by saying: “If you have put the success of the ministry above your relationship with God, and/or your family, then you need to repent today.”*
