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.

I'm gonna tell them to you, then we're gonna talk about them.

You're gonna tell yourself, clarity is kindness.

You're gonna tell yourself, delay compounds the damage.

And you're gonna tell yourself, placement is stewardship.

Let's talk about it.

Clarity is kindness.

You will never lead anything great when you don't tell the truth quickly.
