THIS WEEK’S MINDSET INVENTORY: Which mindsets are we leaning toward?

Our Church has aSelf-First Mindset – The people whose needs are prioritized are the ones who speak the loudest and give the most. -OR – Others-First Mindset – The people whose needs are prioritized are the ones who do not yet know Christ.

I have aFollower Mindset – It’s safer to blend into the background and follow others. – OR – Leader Mindset – When prompted, I’m willing to risk failure, step out and lead others into new areas of growth.
