3. Failure to exercise faith.
“At some point in my ministry, I started playing defense and let the status quo become my way of doing church.
I was fearful of taking steps of faith, and my leadership and churches suffered as a result. Not only was I too cautious in the churches I served, I was too cautious in my own ministry.
I really felt God calling me to plant a church at one point, but I was just too fearful to take that step.”
