but they're great in different seasons.

Some don't know how to scale, they just really don't.

But you put them in an established church, they can love on people and care on them better than you could ever imagine.

So what you wanna do is make sure you put the right people in the right seat with the right boss in the right season.

Now, let's say you wake up and you realize something's not right.

whatever it is, we're not getting the outcomes that we want and everybody's frustrated and we need to make a change.

This is where so many leaders hesitate and we think this is gonna be so hard, it's gonna be so hard, and it can be really hard because you do care for people.

But think of it this way, and I apologize for too many sports analogies, but it just fits.

If you've got a football team that can't move the ball, can't get first downs, can't score, what do you do?

you make a quarterback change.

It may be that the quarterback is still really good, but he just can't move the ball against this type of defense or it's late in the season and he's fighting an injury.

So what do you do if the offense can't move the ball?

You make a quarterback change.

You may take a passing quarterback out and put a running quarterback in.

It's not a reflection of the quality of the quarterback.

It's just the type of the quarterback you need in the moment.

And so that's what you do.

You do the same thing in business and the same thing in ministry.

It's not emotional, it's not critical, it's just wisdom.

If you find that you got the right person and they're in the wrong seat or the wrong pairing or whatever it is, you tell yourself three things, and I wanna drive these in.
