It
I finished Craig Groeschel’s book recently. Phenomenal book really. In It, Groeschel tries his best to describe how ministries can get and keep it. You know, it. That in-categorizable thing that some ministries and leaders have and others don’t. The it factor that helps some groups explode with growth. No matter what they try, when leaders have it, it works. So many times, we as leaders like to look to cool graphics, great communicators, big budgets, buildings, etc. as the catalyst for it. But that couldn’t be further from the truth and Groeschel breaks it down in an easy to read manor that puts a spotlight on key areas in ministry. (including several key areas i need to help fix in my sphere of influence.)
What really pushes this book over the top for me occurs in the final 2 chapters (don’t skip to them, just keep reading). Groeschel makes it personal at the end and lets just say I felt quite a bit of conviction from the Holy Spirit as I read through some of his experiences and challenges in his own life.
I eagerly recommend “It” for any church or ministry leader- lay or vocational. It is a challenging and practical, yet quick read (read most of it at jury duty) that God may very well use to impact you in a powerful way.
Congrats Craig, your getting added to the books page!
