Getting the wrong people on your team (or leading it!) can be one of the most expensive and stressful issues you’ll ever face. I was thrilled to hear wisdom from my friend William Vanderbloemen on how we really can do so much better at this. He is an entrepreneur, pastor, speaker, author, and CEO and founder of Vanderbloemen Search Group, which has helped thousands of churches, ministries, and faith-based organisations create a great culture and find people who will consistently make it better to achieve their God given goals. We looked at many issues on the Future Church podcast here including:

The fights that are just distracting, and could even be destroying your ability to really do what you’re made to do and meant to do?

FOUR MARKS OF THE POST-CHRISTIAN MIND. Dr James Emery White
The culture that has lost its spiritual roots is a dying culture… however prosperous it may appear externally.
Steve Addison – MIND THE GAP!
What if the gospel is NOT about ‘cities being transformed..’ We talk as if the gospel is here to change the city, socially, politically economically and so on, neglecting what the mission of God really is.
JOSH HOWARD, Practices, Pitfalls and Principles for multiplying movements
“You don’t have to have BEST practices. Just be okay with ‘good enough’ to do something. Then practice! Innovation means it doesn’t have to be perfect yet.”
FOUR LEVELS OF LEADERSHIP – DON’T SKIP ANY!
You may know already I’m on sabbatical and you’re thinking, ‘Why’s he going meeting with people?’ but I had a dream just the other week where pretty clearly God was telling me I needed to go and connect with Ken Gott, and I know he likes quick obedience – so we did it.
Moving Toward Becoming A Coaching Leader
For years, decades, I said to myself ‘I’m too young, nobody will want to learn from me.’ Now it won’t be long before the lie becomes ‘I’m too old, nobody wants to listen to me!’
