Pull the TRIGGER!

By -
PULL THE TRIGGER is a common expression meaning to make a decision that causes an important action to take place. So what decision have you been toying with making that just needs to be made? Here are some thoughts about making decisions...

1. DECISIONS are necessary for the dream of Jesus to advance.
2. DECISIONS are not about being popular, they are about doing right.
3. RIGHT DECISIONS will make a ministry, WRONG DECISIONS will break a ministry.
4. DECISIONS should be made in light of WHAT SHOULD BE, NOT WHAT IS
5. DECISIONS force us to think forward
6. DECISIONS are what leaders do
7. DECISIONS should be well thought out

These are just some random thoughts off the top of my little brain. What DECISION do you need to PULL THE TRIGGER ON?

One of the things I have been encouraging our MINISTRY LEADS in 2011 is to GET YOUR HANDS OFF THE MINISTRY AND ONTO THE MINISTERS. As a HIGH LEVEL LEADER you cannot afford to get bogged down in programs and must stayed focused on people, your ministry people. Eph. 4:11-12, encourages us to EQUIP SAINTS, not to run programs. Programs are important but they do not warrant our attention tot he point of neglecting our teams. It will be our team members who will provide healthy programs, as we pour our lives in maintaining healthy leaders. So lets make this post a little more interactive than usual and throw out some ideas on how to LOVE ON

FOUR BIG QUESTIONS

By -
At GRANITE moving the ball down the court means we are moving people into BIBLICAL DISCIPLESHIP.  And since we know PROGRAMS DON'T MORE PEOPLE but that PEOPLE MOVE PEOPLE we have FOUR BIG QUESTIONS we constantly ask in regards to those who are either NEW TO GRANITE or CALL GRANITE HOME.  What are those questions?  Well I'm glad you asked! Who are they? Where are they? What's their next step? Who's leading them? The bigger question is what do each of these questions men?  Well I'm not going to tell you that right now!  HA!  Sorry not sorry.  I'll post about each question separately in the next few days!   Until then...
