The 80/20 Factor

Based off the Pareto Principle we understand the law of the vital few, that in just about any church, twenty percent of the people do eighty percent of the work. How do you move people from the serve-us mindset to a service mentality; from being a spectator to a participator? That is the struggle for many of us in ministry leadership. This podcast episode not only poses the problem, but provides some answers on what can be done.

Poitras Ponderings

Pause, Ponder, and Project

The Poitras family has many things in common. We speak. We write. We teach. We preach. We mentor. We lead. We counsel. We pray. We listen. We read. We learn. We encourage. We serve. We love. We interact. We enjoy. We hug. We each specialize in one or more of those areas but haven't got everything together. We strive! It makes for brilliant dynamics and a lot of fun. We are strong because we do life together.

But, in addition to all that. We pause. We ponder. We project.

It's a great mix we have in our lives. One more thing: we share. It's our joy to share the Poitras Ponderings!
