This is my dad…
This is me…
Funny, because I swore up and down when I was younger that I would never be like my dad. He was strict or at least I thought so at the time. I now find myself calling him often for advice and his opinion.
I am skimming through the Catalyst Groupzine, volume 1. (Its one of the items I picked up yesterday at STL.)
Here is Andy Stanley’s opening quote for which I relate:
The instinct to challenge the process is a fundamental quality of every leader. When God created leaders, He equipped them with an unsettling urge to unpack, undo, and unearth methods. This explains your tendency to question everything around you. It’s the reason you have such strong opinions – And such a strong desire to share them. God wired you that way.
I can’t wait to read through it…right now I’m just skimming.

Great quote. Happy reading!

The older we get the wiser our dad becomes. I too found myself calling my dad when I wanted advise. Call often, someday the line won’t be there.
