::: Being a Releasing Pastor

From being general controller to being primary releaser.
From being the hero to being the hero maker.
From focusing on just their needs to focusing on their call.

So so good. Personally, I believe the primary challenge of the church of the future is releasing, mobilizing and catalyzing their talent.
