Don’t Rely Totally on Meetings

Most leaders love and enjoy people.

Since people are key to all God wants to do, that’s a great thing.

Unfortunately, if we let “love for people” be our only assessment, we will hinder all God wants to do. The hardest lifts in my ministry and leadership are the emotional ones.
