SHOW NOTES:
Several years ago, my wife Karen and I planted a church near downtown, Fort Worth, Texas. Well, a few years after planting the church, our building reached a tipping point. Our auditorium was full, our kid’s space stretched thin, and we knew we needed to either renovate or relocate.
After careful consideration, we decided to renovate the building. Here's the framework we drew from to make the decision.
1. PRAYER: Have I Asked for the Holy Spirit’s Wisdom?
2. DNA: Does the Decision Support Our Organizational Identity?
3. RESEARCH: Have I Done My Homework?
4. EXPERIENCE: Do Lessons from Past Experience Support the Decision?
5. ADVICE: Does the Wisdom of Others Affirm the Decision?
6. RESOURCES: Can We Get the Money to Start and Sustain the Decision?
7. IMPACT: Will the Decision Deliver a Good Return on Investment?
8. INTUITION: Is My Gut Telling Me to Proceed?
9. INFLUENCE: Are My Key Leaders Receptive and Supportive?
10. TIMING: Is the Timing Right for the Leader, Team, & Organization?
