None of us in church leadership get the luxury of a single-focused call, no matter how important we think it is. None of us get to handpick our own Corps of Discovery with nothing but the best, bravest, faithful, loyal and mature. Every church and Christian organization I know is filled with people of varying degrees of competence, courage and capacity to embrace change. As leaders, our calling is to further the mission of the kingdom of heaven, to expand the proclamation and demonstration of the gospel, with the very people whom God has given us.
