During their conversation, they discuss getting to know your congregation and the importance of growing leaders.<br> <br> <br> BEST QUOTES<br> <br> “You don’t want to just read from one stream.”<br> <br> “You want to eat the fish and spit out the bones. You have to discern the difference.”<br> <br> “God convicted me a few years ago, “Why are you reading books about what I say, when you can just read what I say?”<br> <br> “Healthy things grow. If we could create a top down healthy staff it would trickle down to the congregation.”<br> <br> “The overall process of our disciple making strategy is both inviting people to church and then investing in those we invite.”<br> <br> “A good leader is a leader who is raising up and developing other leaders."<br> <br> “I think developing leaders who come after you is a stewardship issue that Jesus is going to hold us accountable to.”<br> <br> “There’s no impact without contact.”<br> <br> “Most pastors stop learning as a leader the day they finish school.”<br> <br> “Information without application is useless information.”<br> <br> “We tell our kids all the time, “We want you to have a love for Jesus and His word that you have and not based on what Mom and Dad have.”<br> <br> “I emulated before them what I would later expect from them.”<br> <br> “Discipleship of both husbands and wives exponentially changes the home.”<br> <br> “Leaders are learners. You are never learning for yourself, you are actually learning for the guy who is coming behind you.”<br> RECOMMENDED RESOURCES<br> <a href="http://myleadershippipeline.com/learningcommunity">Leadership Pipeline Learning Community</a><br> <br> <a href="https://www.lifeway.com/en/product/walking-with-god-through-pain-and-suffering-P005760287">Walking With God Through Pain and Suffering</a> by Tim Keller<br> <br> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Companion-Textbook-Discovering-Historical-Nazareth/dp/B000TJLPVA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1522719476&sr=8-1&keywords=behold+the+man+dwight+pryor">Behold the Man!</a> by Dwight Pryor<br> <br> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Poet-Peasant-Through-Eyes-Literary-%20Cultural/dp/0802819478/ref=sr_1_4?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1522719509&sr=1-4&keywords=kenneth+bailey">Poet & Peasant and Through Peasant Eyes</a> by Kenneth Bailey<br> <br> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Jesus-Through-Middle-Eastern-Eyes/dp/0830825681/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1522719509&sr=1-1&keywords=kenneth+bailey">Jesus Through Middle Eastern Eyes</a> by Kenneth Bailey<br> <br> <a href="https://www.jcstudies.com">Jcstudies.org</a><br> <br> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Walking-Dust-Rabbi-Jesus-Jewish/dp/0310330009/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1522719595&sr=1-3&keywords=lois+tverberg">Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus</a> by Lois Tverberg<br> <br> <a href="https://www.lifeway.com/en/product/reading-the-bible-with-rabbi-jesus-P006175300">Reading the Bible with Rabbi Jesus</a> by Lois Tverberg<br> <br> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Our-Father-Abraham-Jewish-Christian/dp/0802804233/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1522719655&sr=1-1&keywords=our+father+abraham">Our Father Abraham</a> by Marvin Wilson<br> <br> <a href="https://www.lifeway.com/en/product/growing-up-P005663922">Growing Up</a> by Robby Gallaty<br> <br> <a href="https://www.lifeway.com/en/product/firmly-planted-P005765912">Firmly Planted</a> by Robby Gal...
