We have been blessed beyond belief when it comes to finding mentors & leaders who will speak into our life at Centerpoint. We’re a part of the ARC network & the guidance there has been a tremendous asset in terms of how to lead, what to do, and on and on and on…
But a tendency can occur when relying on such guidance. At times you can aspire to be so much like your mentors & their churches, that you sometimes forget where God has called you. You can put all your efforts into creating models & systems that mirror those of great leaders you’re connected to. And the trap comes when you try to do everything they do and you can miss the mark.
Let me reiterate, having this guidance in my & our life has been amazing and we wouldn’t be where we are without that influence. But we need reminded that God has called us to our unique place & community.
Remember:
1. God called your ministry, your pastors, and your team for a unique calling – We can learn & adapt from other leaders but God wants to do something special in your community.
2. Find your rhythm – Your town, your ministry has a beautiful harmony that can only be found by listening to the voice of God.
3. GO! – listen to God, listen to others, and go for it. Don’t hold back. Don’t look back. Trust what God has called you to do!
