Over the next few days, INJOY Stewardship Solutions has dispatched me to attend the 2021 Reach Conference followed by the Southern Baptist Convention. My objective here is to bring you the top leadership lessons and quotes from the event.
Send Conference is a gathering of pastors, families and churches across North America learning and celebrating what it means to be on mission together, for the sake of the gospel. With specialized tracks for every member of the family, you’ll gain the tools and connections to become a movement of people — the Church — sharing the gospel with a world in need.
Before getting to the content, I want to make you aware that this Thursday, June 17th at 11:00 AM EST my friends Joe Sangl and Michael Lukaszewski are hosting a FREE webinar entitled How Pastors Can Earn Extra Money. Currently over 700 pastors are signed up!!! This webinar is for pastors or church leaders looking to make more money on the side and have multiple streams of revenue while still serving their churches. This teaching will help you relieve stress and focus more on your calling. Click HERE to register.
The following are 8 leadership quotes from Pastors Conference David Uth of the First Baptist Church of Orlando. This is significant because during 2020 he had a brain tumor removed, open heart surgery, five broken ribs from a bicycle accident, hernia surgery, and led city of Walt Disney through a pandemic and unemployment crisis:
- “I learned we were not passionate about our mission. We were passionate about our agendas.”
- “I never dreamed we would not pass the plate in a Baptist church.”
- “COVID changed all of us. What it didn’t change was the mission Jesus gave. We just needed to figure out the best way to do it.”
- “I value every day more than I’ve ever valued any day in my life.”
- “I’m done with stuff that really does make an eternal difference.”
- “This is one of the greatest times to be a minister of Jesus Christ. We know where hope is. We know where meaning is.”
- “We baptized 141 folks at the beach the other day.”
- “This is our time. These are our days. We want to be the best we could be because He is worthy.”
