All In!

Leadership is hard. Every decision a leader makes can either help or hurt the organization. Each decision carries significant weight  and the outcomes can carry positive or negative results that can either stall, trip up, or move the organization down the field. There are no insignificant issues or decisions as every consequence, good or bad, has meaning.

A leader who is "all in" must have a sense of calling and purpose. While some leaders cannot specifically articulate why they sacrifice so much for the organization, it is definitely there. These types of leaders are willing to give up on, or let go of, those little issues that are frivolous and don't help the organization. They have the ability to stay the course especially in the midst of adversity. 

I had the opportunity to be with some leaders who are "all in" when I visited Village of Hope in Guatemala last month. The Blocks and Uchereks have sacrificed so much in order to provide faith, family, and a future to special needs and HIV children. I encourage you to check out the links below and follow these families and their ministry. How "all in" are you?
