@innoutburger_ We certainly made a mistake by prioritizing quantity over quality.

We had promoted 350 In-N-Out Burger burgers to students at one of our services in Houston, only to discover that we could only order 75 burgers at a time every approximately 30 minutes.

Would it be possible for you to assist us with this request, just this once? 🙏

You are only as mature as your ability to rejoice when others get what you wanted.

@lukedsimmons I don’t like this post because it’s too true. 😂

@treywallace Sounds like something an insecure Lead Pastor would say. You don’t own your staff.

Leadership is disappointing people at a rate they can stand!

[blake stanley @blake_stanley]

There are two types of leaders!

F-16 Fighting Falcon

This is a highly agile, multirole fighter known for its ability to make tight turns, rapid adjustments, and recover from risky maneuvers. It's not the fastest, but it's incredibly responsive, adaptable, and forgiving of course corrections. It thrives in dogfights and changing conditions.

MiG-25 Foxbat

This is a Soviet-era interceptor built for straight-line speed (over Mach 3), but it's heavy, less agile, and struggles in close combat or rapid maneuvering. It has to stay on a steady, predictable path and can't adapt quickly. Once it's off-course or engaged in a dogfight, it's at a major disadvantage.

Some leaders are like the F-16, they're not perfect, but they can adjust quickly, recover from mistakes and poor decisions, and stay mission-focused. Others are like the MiG-25 - they might look powerful or impressive at first glance, but they lack the agility to adapt, pivot, or recover when the mission demands change

Which one are you?

Just got a phone call from a phenomenal Lead Pastor who is looking for a Campus Pastor. DM me for details - if you’re interested - or know of someone that may be interested.

A prayer life without a work ethic is wishful thinking. Faith without sweat is just noise.

Saying — “I don’t get paid to do that” is one of the reasons you’ll never be paid “to do that”.

TWO of the best questions to ask when developing young leaders:

What do you think?

How can I help?
