"The truth is that when we are not operationally excellent, we expend a lot of time, energy, and sometimes money on things that take away from being kingdom minded, being missional, being invested in discipling, being relational with our leaders. Being operationally agile, being able to respond quickly, having operational and administrative tasks handled well within our churches—and more broadly within our diocese—ultimately supports the fulfillment of the mission of the gospel."
In this last installment of a four-part series, Bishop Alex explains the importance of the fourth pillar in his vision for the diocese: prayerful, relational, kingdom-minded, and agile.
