Michael: How important is the mission God has given your organization?

Bob: It’s really important. God gave it to us, asked us to carry it out, and used it to impact the lives of others.

Michael: How does knowing that your God-given mission is really important impact you?

Bob: It helps me intentionally focus—on mission and only on the mission. This means saying “no” to certain requests. Saying “no” can be a challenge, but saying “no” is saying “yes” to the mission.


Your turn: Take a 3-item self-assessment, using the following scale:
4: Strongly agree • 3: Agree • 2: Disagree • 1: Strongly Disagree

1. I believe the mission God has given our organization is important.
   
2. I focus on achieving the mission.
   
3. I say “no” to certain requests in order to say “yes” to the mission.

How can you use your self-assessment data?

Focus on your mission. Today.
