ANDY STANLEY
- Andy is doing a talk on "Healthy Staff Culture"
- I think the church should be the greatest place to work on the planet!
- Northpoint Community Church came in 3rd for the BEST place to work in the Atlanta area.
- I want to talk about something (one thing actually) that I've learned that drives healthy staff culture at churches more than anything else!
- I believe this is the most contagious thing!
- Mark 10:32-45
- Whoever wants to be out front must serve.
- Mark 10:45 -- this is why Jesus came!
- Healthy and productive staff cultures are characterized by "mutual submission."
- This is a game changer!
- The question mutual submission asks: "How can I help?"
- There is no one in this room that is above this.
- There is also no one in this room that has a special anointing.
- There are 2 people you can ask to see if you have an anointing: your doctor and your wife.
- Catch this: even the Son of Man did not come to serve but to be served!
- Even IF you are anointed, you should be the BEST servant on the planet!
- Here are some best practices:
- Do for 1 what you wish you could do for everyone.
- Systematically develop (from the top down) service in your church or organization.
- Create and maintain a sustainable pace so you can serve others!
- Ask yourself "Does your availability squeeze out your serve-ability?"
- Reward mutual submission when you see it!
- Remember: what is rewarded is what gets repeated.
- Confront your ego!
- Your staff is not your cast of characters.
- Drop the term "loyalty" from your vocabulary. Loyalty didn't even make the list in the fruits of the spirit.
- Follow the example of Christ: serve!
