I have been in the graphics / print industry since 1995 and involved in ministry since 1992. I am just now starting to see how the two have pushed me in the direction I was ultimately supposed to be in. Thanks for the encouragement, Robert Wow, I am sitting here this weekend realizing what God has been calling me to do for all these year and reading your post just really hit home.

]]> Comment on Step On Some Toes by Richard Peck http://www.createlaunchlead.com/step-on-some-toes/comment-page-1/#comment-253 Richard Peck Mon, 11 May 2009 02:49:54 +0000 http://www.geoffwasserman.com/?p=503#comment-253 Geoff, With no personal harshness intended, if I understand your point, I think "Step on Some Toes" is one of the most conceptually wrongheaded approaches possible. The attempted transfer of knowledge between the business world and Christ's Church is a largely failed experiment. Given time together and a cup of coffee I'd be happy to have with you, I could recount the damage this experiment did in a denomination I was once an active part of. More than that, however, what did Christ say? "My kingdom is not of this world" (John 18:36). Context matters, so we could argue about the applicability of John 18. It's also possible we may differ on the nature of interpretative authority (i.e., how do we decide who's right? Your church? Mine? The Church?). But surely John 18:36, alongside the condemnations of unbridled business instincts through the Old and New Testaments, should at least give us pause. Most of all, how do we square stepping on toes with The Good Shepherd? "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, AND THEY FOLLOW ME" [John 10:27, emphasis mine]. Based on having led businesses in NY, CA, and SC, “get your toes out of the way” sounds more like a problem with leadership, than followership. As leaders, we flatter ourselves that others’ reluctance to follow is their lack of vision and defense of turf. But is it also possible that sometimes we don’t have “ears to hear”? Surely step on some toes vis-a-vis God's work deserves a second look. But I’d also be happy to hear your side of things, if I have completely misunderstood you. God’s peace, Richard Geoff,

I can't stress enough the importance of clarity in leadership. If a leader is unclear the group or followers will be unclear also. I appreciate your post.
