It’s interesting to me, how much of a secular author’s rants on marketing apply to our activities as saints. Seth Godin is spot on again in a recent post titled “Would we miss you?“. He of course asks the question with respect to business/client relationship to demonstrate the importance of being exceptional in what we do. I can’t even believe how much more important the work that we’re doing is from an eternal perspective, and yet for most of us our efforts in ministry are so terribly “back burner.”
I’m reminded to be more concerned in my life with missional living than I am with vocational living.
If I were gone tomorrow, would the kingdom lose a strategic warrior of great import? Geeez… I’m embarrassed to even think the answer.
Go on folks, make yourself irreplaceable.
