Breaking Out of a Rut

Craig Groeschel of Lifechurch.tv has some great insight on the why behind making change in ministry.

"The longer we do ministry, the harder it is to be open to change. And the more success we’ve had recently, the more we’re tempted to trust the model… instead of the Giver of the model."

Another observation... when you're in a rut, you're often dealing with a lot of sludge at the bottom, and you occasionally get filled up with mucked up, dirty water. Changing things up is healthy.
