Learn the Principles
People in the faith community are often nervous about putting business language on the process of creating a new faith community. But it’s important to look at the principles and see what we can learn.

- Have one clear goal. Rally the team around one clear idea and win at that one idea as fast as possible. If we can do this well, we can prove that we have what it takes and move on to other goals.
