  5. 97% of the world has heard of Coke 72% have seen a bottle or a can of Coke 51% have tasted Coke

  6. Failure to recognize a compelling, outward focus as a key to church health and leadership typically results in what I would refer to as… “mission confusion”

  7. When pastors and boards take an external/macro approach to church leadership, it will lead to the inevitable discovery of a common, overarching mission “The Mission of God”

  8. “I will look on you with favor and make you fruitful and increase your numbers, and I will keep my covenant with you. You will be eating last year’s harvest when you will have to move it out to make room for the new. I will put my dwelling place among you and be your God, and you will be my people.” Lev. 26:9-12

  9. I will be your God You will be my people I will dwell in your midst Lev. 26:9-12
