Church is a team sport. Gone are the days of the solo leader that stands up to the plate and with one solitary swing of the bat hits a home run for the organization. That's a tired metaphor that no longer resonates with current culture that values teamwork. Instead, today's leading churches are team led and work the ball down the field - passing and setting picks for each other - prior to kicking a goal. Here are some reasons benefits of working with a team:
1. Teams have more fun.
2. Teams accomplish more.
3. Teams generate higher quality - they bring internal accountability.
4. Teams are more creative. Gotta love the synergy.
5. Teams make life easier - it's better to work together and cover each other's back.
6. Teams allow each person to operate in their giftedness.
7. Teams create conflict. Conflict, when handled correctly, yields greater opportunities for growth and success.
I thank God for the our team at PCC. It's such a blessing to work with such committed and creative people that give their all everyday for the vision. You're awesome PCCers.
