We live in a world that loves to tell everyone else how to live their lives. And while we judge others by their actions, we tend to judge ourselves by our intentions. The result is that how we see others pales in comparison to how we see ourselves. Its just not a fair standard. David and Katy discuss how to create proper expectations by first looking at ourselves with this simple idea: If we model it, they will do it.Questions, comments, or episode ideas?Text us at (605) 250-1224Get The Book - davidkinnan.comFountain Springs Church - fs.churchInstagram:@davidkinnan@katykinnan@fschurch@offthefencepodcast

If you could have all of your needs and deficits met, but the only condition was to fully identify them and understand why they are there, could you do it? It's a fascinating scenario that begs the question, do we really know what we want? It seems like we can focus so much on the symptoms but never identify the root of what causes them. And to take it further, we can easily get caught in trying to help others without a full understanding of what it is they need help with. David and Katy discuss our deficits and insecurities and how we can identify them to find freedom and position ourselves to be a sold help for others around us.

David and Katy discuss how we can shift our lens to be more like Jesus and sacrificially serve those in our lives.

Asking yourself the hard questions...it's what great leaders do. David & Katy breakdown a well known bible passage to discover the questions that every leader should be answering.
15 GUT CHECK QUESTIONS FOR A LEADER
1 – “Love Is Patient” Am I giving others the same room to make mistakes as I want them to give me?
2 – “Love Is Kind” Do the people I lead actually like being around me? (If you want to know the answer to this question just ask yourself how much they ask to hang out with you outside of work!)
3 – “It Does Not Envy” Am I automatically jealous of anyone who has a great idea and constantly perceive others as a threat to my position? (Another leader struggled with this...it didn’t go well with him...see I Samuel 18:6-9).
4 – ‘It Does Not Boast” Do I feel like I always need to remind people of my previous victories? (If we are obsessed with the past then we’re not advancing towards the future!)
5 – “It Is Not Proud” Do I feel that I am the only one in the organization that has all of the answers?
6 – “It Is Not Rude” Am I always cutting people off mid sentence as soon as I discover that I do not like their idea...or am I willing to hear them out? (People don’t always have to be right as long as they feel like they’ve been heard.)
7 – “It Is Not Self Seeking” Who is this about–really?
8 – “It Is Not Easily Angered” Are people afraid to bring me information that is true and accurate because they know I will lose my mind and begin to yell? (Don’t shoot the mailman!)
9 – “It Keeps No Record Of Wrongs” Do I remind people of their past failures or encourage them in their current condition?
10 – “Love Does Not Delight In Evil But Rejoices In The Truth” Can people be honest and open with anyone in the organization, including me?
11 – “It Always Protects” Do I have the back of my leaders? It’s very discouraging to work for someone who demands loyalty but will not extend it.
12 – “Always Trusts” Do I believe the people who lead their assigned areas can make day-to-day decisions without my input?
13 – “Always Hopes” Do I always automatically assume the worse or the best about people? It is amazing what can happen on a staff or in a ministry when the leader believes in the people he/she leads.
14 – ”Always Perseveres” Am I quick to give up on people after they make one mistake... or am I willing to teach them through it?
15 – “Love Never Fails” Do I have a high turnover OR a low turnover in the number of people who work/volunteer with me/for me? (If the number is high then maybe it isn’t the people failing...)
