Working the edges of Faith!

"Work around the edges of your religious group (denomination, association, or network) because innovation has less resistance there. You will never find the status quo at the edge, nor will you hear "we've never done it that way before." Maximize your edges by reading in areas outside of your discipline, attending events not put on by your denomination, networking with pastors in other traditions, talking with your kids, visiting new web sites, or going places you would not normally go. Challenge your leaders beyond what they think they are capable of achieving. Innovation is often the result of an over-sized vision or goal. Another way to think of this is to think, "The only place to find God working is among the impossible." ~ Bill Easum
