"You must learn to lead yourself and others"

"You are the most difficult person you will ever lead"

"A leaders most valuable asset is their energy, NOT their time"

"God, what would be the greatest contribution I could make?  You can sprint for 6 weeks, you can't do it for 6 months"

"God didn't build us to lead responsively but proactively."

"The greatest plan a pastor can put together is a succession plan"

"Leadership is a privilege and a gift from God"
