		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;The Church may be the most leadership intensive organization in all the world.&#8221;
I&#8217;ve been reading John Maxwell&#8217;s 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership and that quote stuck out to me&#8230;and I completely agree with it.

		<description><![CDATA[In production leadership, and ministry in general, it’s not uncommon to fear not having enough volunteers. In fact, you may have already noticed something: we’ll never have enough volunteers.
At least not enough to make us comfortable.
Confident, yes.
Effective, yes.
Comfortable, probably not.
So what do we do? We set the bar low and beg anyone we can to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had a great lunch today with Kent Boyd, my production director at our Dalton Campus. We got together to talk about something that I&#8217;ve noticed in the past few weeks. 
As I&#8217;ve moved from leading volunteers directly into leading leaders (who lead volunteers), I&#8217;ve become more disconnected from the daily lives of the volunteers.

		<description><![CDATA[Pete and Repeat got into a boat, Pete fell out. Who was left?
The key to successful vision casting is repetition.
Repetition is annoying though isn&#8217;t it? It gets old being told the same thing over and over again. Many times I take it as an insult to my intelligence.
But it must be done.
