Preachers Trained Buy Social Media?

"Where will the next generation of leaders find this deep biblical grounding? So many potential next-generation leaders have been discipled by social media, the public education system, and even the modern workplace to think in unbiblical ways.
For our movement to stay healthy, we must develop leaders—in our youth ministries, colleges, church internships/residencies, elder-training programs—whose minds are so thoroughly drenched in Scripture that they even dream biblically."

Stiffy Spines Versus Iffy Spines

"When cultural tempests buffet, believers are tempted to bend on biblical truth, “blown here and there by every wind of teaching” (Ephesians 4:14). We need leaders with Scripture coursing through their veins to teach it boldly, stiffen our spines, and keep us faithful to God’s Word."

There Ain't No "u" In Team

Things only poor controlling leaders say.

The guys complained to Shaq, 

"Kobe ain't passing the ball."

So Shaq said he'd talk to him.

Shaq "There is no 'i' in team Kobe"

Kobe "I know but there is a 'm' , 'e' in that mother f@@er..."

------------------------------------------------

To quote a cartoon..... 

"There is no "i" in team!

There us no "u" in team either!

So if i ain't in the team and u ain't in the team, there is no M F-ing team."

Do what you know is right to do, or has integrity. 

You don't have to agree to mediocrity, nor serve mediocrity to be a team player. 

There are many terrible teams. Teams that will have you wasting your life in tasks that are fruitless, or even worse, a concession to something you shouldn't conceed to. 

Bluntly, I've fround the leaders who would use this phrase (no i in team) are the least likely to be the ones I want to emulate or follow.

If being on a team requires that one must agree to time wasting fruitless activity that bothers your conscience, then that team demands to much. 

Don't agree to mediocrity, don't agree to violate your conscience.
