When 20% of the people do 80% of the work in a church, the
church leaders usually think that they have an 80% problem. But, in reality
they have a 20% problem. Obviously the 20% who are the power brokers have
designed the ministry of the church in such a way that the 80% are not
interested in participating. The 80% are not interested because churches are
designed so that only the 20% can be a Somebody. The secret is to encourage the
80% to pursue their calling to ministry and design an infrastructure that
is capable of recognizing their calling as the work of the church. Not very many churches have the nerve for this.

About Me

- I am a slave to no man or institution. I have worked with Frank Tillapaugh for thirty years and most of the ideas are work we would like to share.
The next generation
God thank you for two amazing young leaders
Looking Forward
Each year I get to spend time with young leaders and the gap is growing between them and my generation, why?
