Are we getting too good at ministry?

Here's an excerpt:

The whole concept of excellence is limiting. The rule of excellence states that we should do nothing until all the research is complete, the money is available, the people are in place, and we have a head for it. Until we can operate that program in excellence (in other words look good doing it), we must table it. In golf we have a saying, "its not how but how many." We feel as if we can't just run with it and figure the rest out as we go. BUT WHAT OF OUR IMAGE? The hungry and needy do not care. They want dinner and they will take it anyway they can get it. I say bake some chicken and serve it. If you make a mistake learn form it. Face it - you will never be perfect anyway so let it go. more
