Hey, Friend!

If you have never thought about your fairness as a leader, or if you are convinced that you are fair, then this episode is for you. In it, I suggest a self-assessment that you should do periodically to determine if you are fair or not.

Fairness is more than equitable treatment. As you will hear in the suggested self-assessment questions, you will need to dig deep into various ways you interact with others.

And if you really want to know if you are fair, you will ask some trusted friends, co-workers, or a mentor what they think as well. Then you will get to work celebrating what you do well and working on what needs attention.

I pray this blesses you,

Hey, Friend!

Ministers depend on volunteers to help a church run smoothly. We literally cannot do our jobs without them. Our job is to pour into those volunteers our time, our attention, our resources, and any training they might want or need.

In fact, we have the responsibility to lead by empowering our team members, fostering their trust, and building a culture of collaboration and accountability.

In today’s episode, I share some strategies for doing so.

I pray this blesses you!

Hey, Friend!

If you are a minister, then you know that volunteers are worth their weight in gold. As a minister, you are a leader and it is the responsibility of every leader to develop those under their leadership. This includes developing both the capacity of your volunteers, as well as a healthy dependency on you for the vision, the mission of the church as it translates to your ministry, and all the support you can give.

In today’s episode, I focus on creating a healthy dependency. In next week’s episode, I share some ways that you can create capacity in your volunteers.

There must be a balance between dependency and capacity in order for your volunteers to feel both valued and necessary, while also building their ability to take ownership and grow in their roles.

I pray this blesses you!
