Time management. Crucial phrase, since you can make more of everything except time. Being effective with time also prevents wasted effort. For example, I read a lot of different blogs, as long as they actually have descriptive content and are not a stream-of-conscious blurb. I don't have time to read two sentences about an experience walking down the street. I do have time to read a outlined process for focusing efforts to accomplish goals.
When I read this (go to 9/14), I was wondering, how would some people view the statement of #5: "Oh, in case you're wondering, I just did the math yesterday. We have 72 full-time and part-time staff members at NewSpring. And, we're averaging 7,300 people in attendance for the year. That means our attendance to staff ratio is about 100:1. How does that compare to your church?"
I think that this statement would be awesome as a full blog posting, or blog series, because some people may be wondering what Tony is saying. What does a staff-to-attendee ratio really mean? For number crunchers, a high ratio means lower church overhead. Or is the staff overworked trying to minister to a high ratio? Is there an "optimum" ratio?
