John C. Maxwell quotes about
selfish making-a-difference church
If the church is going to make a difference, it will need to go through the "big give-up" stage. Churches will need to quit being selfish and become relevant.
community vision church
Without a vision our community will perish without Christ, but without a vision the church will perish as well.
brother community church
The key word in the church community is relationships, you know brother and sister in Christ.
giving-up church realizing
The church that will not give up will be outdated and passed by, quicker than they realize.
vision church pastor
Vision is something pastors and churches cannot afford to live without.
church
The church will not stay the same. It will either blossom because someone understands the season the church is in, or it will wither very quickly.
church
Anytime a church squabbles over minor things you can be certain they do not have a clear picture of what they need to be.
leader church realizing
It was while I was pastoring that I began to realize that pastors were not growing churches because they didn't understand leadership because they were not trained, adequate leaders.
teenage moving someday
I really didn't settle stuff spiritually until I was 17 years of age. But through my teenage years I just knew that someday I had to settle accounts and get things straightened up and move in that direction.
passion thinking discipline
I think passion and discipline are wonderful, complementary things.
college good-times pastor
I started out in the ministry, went to college, started as a pastor, pastored for basically 25 years. That was a good time, I really enjoyed it.
hard-times leader vision
Most pastors have a hard time grasping a vision. But vision is the indispensable quality of a leader.
good-day people secret
When I made that statement that the person discovers the secret of their success by their daily agenda, all of a sudden it hit me that if I could teach people to make today count; if I could really teach them what they need to do today to have a good day, that tomorrow would really take care of itself.
dream people giving
Why would God send people to our church if we don't have a great dream? Why would God give a multigifted, multitalented, and multifinancially wealthy person to a church if the biggest thing you are going to do is paint the restrooms next year? That's bad stewardship.
