Being a part of a solid team is a great thing. Last night most of our 180 adult team was over at the house talking about the 180 ministry. Even though we come from different backgrounds and perspectives we can come together for a common purpose. It was encouraging to me to listen as we went around the room hearing how each of us had gotten to know a student better this past month. God works in a lot of different ways and through different people in crazy ways. I put a high value on this team. They are more than people that help make the 180 ministry happen at Southridge, they are my friends, my encouragers, and people I value the most. Good teams are tough to find and difficult to create and maybe even more frustrating to maintain. I believe teams need to have a common value, a purpose that we can unite around, and maybe most importantly a desire to encourage and serve one another.
Adult team: keep praying for the students, some of us who have some health issues, and that we can continue to encourage you.

Brad,
And, thanks for letting us be a part of a team.
And, thanks for enabling us as leaders to re-see, re-define, and re-invent our purpose and our mission.
As leaders, we have to question the same old same old, the deja vu all over again. Cuz stuff keeps changing. Like the kids who keep developing, the students who are different than last year's, the community, the parents, the spouse. Leaders watch. Leaders keep noticing what's different and encouraging their teams, followers, kids, colleagues to see what's really here right now, and whether yesterday's solutions really work.
We here to make a difference, thanks for not settling and just having us "tweak it". I don't think you can just keep tweaking last year's agenda in this fast-changing world. Not if you're going to...
Lead.
