Innovation3: Shaping the Culture — John Jenkins
Here are some key points from John Jenkins out of First Baptist Church of Glenarden:
- “I want to talk to you about courage to change.”
- “People are creatures of habit.”
- “Change scares people.”
- “All real leaders have to face the fact that people don’t like change.”
- “If we continue to do what we’ve always done, we will always get what we’ve always had.”
- “Some churches are so set on doing things the way they always have that they would rather die than change.”
- “All over this country churches are dying because people refuse to change.”
- “How many churches are dying because they refuse to deal with the root problem and only deal with symptoms.”
- “The greatest hindrance to the next great move of God is the last great move of God.” (we keep trying to do the exact same things that gave us a result once — waiting for the same results)
- “We had been doing church work but not the work of the church.”
