Your value isn't about inherent worth, but about the problems you solve for others. Joseph went from prisoner to second-in-command in 24 hours by interpreting Pharaoh's dream. #ProblemSolving#Value#PersonalGrowth
Remember: “My irresponsibility will always become someone else’s responsibility.”
Exceptional leadership begins with exceptional self-leadership. When we drop the ball, someone else has to pick it up. Take responsibility for your part first.

Eschatology, rightly understood, is not antithetical to ethics. It generates them. When the kingdom comes, the will of YHWH will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
-Jesus and the Victory of God
Once we see sacramental grace at the intersection of the homecoming of God in Jesus and the homecoming of God in the spirit, it isn't the baptism that might have failed. What may be lacking is the theological understanding, fellowship, and encouragement. I suspect that our cultural and philosophical climates have made it more difficult to see that grace confers responsibility, a responsibility that includes the challenge to seek the further infilling and enabling of the spirit.

Great leaders don’t avoid conflicts, they manage it.
Conflict is inevitable. In life, in business and in the arena you compete in.
Choose and learn to confront respectfully.
Worship is central to Christian living. Actually, it's central to all human life: "without worship you shrink," wrote the play-wright. "It's as brutal as that." This is a general truth: human flourishing depends on looking up, looking beyond, looking deeper, and responding with gratitude, admiration, and aspiration to the vision one has glimpsed. By itself, however, this wide meaning of "worship" can lead in many different directions, some of them dangerous or even destructive. Humans are designed, after all, to reflect the true creator God into the world. But if humans worship idols, the god-reflecting vocation is not canceled. It is distorted, so that we reflect into the world some aspect of, or some force within, the created order. The classic ones are money, sex, and power. We become like what we worship. Instead of shrinking, we are shaped by it: into monsters, if we are worshipping idols, or into truly human beings, if we are worshipping the true creator God. We grow into the likeness of who or what we worship, and we display that likeness to the world.

Jesus doesn't condemn us. He doesn’t use our situations against us. He simply brings truth to life and asks us to align with it.
"There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." Romans 8:1
Bach, like John, wants us to gaze through the lens of glory. God’s glory is displayed, not despite the trial, the mocking, the beating, and Jesus’ death itself, but in and through it. And if that seems too ridiculous – if, like Pontius Pilate, we find it all beyond us – Bach might say: listen to the music, and I’ll show you how it makes sense.

The gospel is not about our feelings, our imaginations, or our sense of what people will or won't like. It's about truth; about the reality of God's good creation and his purposes unveiled in Jesus. And truth remains God's, not ours.
