Let’s be honest, it’s flattering to be asked to serve on the Board of Directors of a Christian ministry, especially a large one.
I know how easy it is to be seduced into serving when men or women you respect, call on you to serve. I’ve fallen for it. To my shame, I’ve served on a few boards simply because I didn’t want to disappoint a friend who asked. Sound familiar?
And almost all board members are chosen for one or more of these reasons: Their affluence, their influence, their spiritual maturity or experience.
So, next time, before you say “yes” ask yourself and them these important questions.
