Go With What You Know

Mark Riddle points out this email from the CEO of Starbucks talking about how they have lost the idea of the Starbucks experience. Mark points out how this relates to megachurches, but I think it relates to all ministries regardless of size. We all have numbers in our mind that make us feel good (when 50 people show up on a Friday night, I'll feel good). But we can't ever be like that. It sets up a sense of entitlement and arrival. It doesn't leave you hungry for more. We have to be motivated to see life change by always staying hungry for more. God doesn't ever want us to coast. JM
