Quotes from the Episode:
“An adventure is an inconvenience rightly perceived.” ~ G.K. Chesterton [00:01:17]
“Hindsight is always 20/20. When you are in leadership, it is hard to say that and justify it.” [00:06:05]
“Sometimes our leaders may do things that we think are really strange and we don’t understand but to some extent a good follower trusts that their leader has the best thing in mind.” [00:07:01]
“Often times inconvenience creates the biggest opportunity.” [00:12:05]
These were very thoughtful questions. I am encouraged to keep on learning that there are good things that come out of situations even if I don't understand why. I need to keep trusting my leader, God, who chooses others in leadership sometimes, to make choices out of my comfort zone and control .
