Erosion of Excellence

Gabe Baker Season 1 Episode 115

Today, I'm joined by Aneisha & Shaylee, and we're talking about excellence and how easily it can deteriorate.

Let's be honest - we've all been there. That moment when you think, "Maybe I can skip the prep work just this once" or "Nobody will notice if I cut this corner." It seems harmless at first. But here's the thing: those little shortcuts have a way of snowballing into bigger problems faster than we'd like to admit. 

What begins as a minor compromise in effort often cascades into a pattern of mediocrity that affects every aspect of our ministry. Like a small crack in a foundation, these seemingly insignificant choices to give less than our best eventually threaten the entire structure of our work and witness.

Some of the things we try to cover:

  • Slow Fade
  • Preparation Sets the Tone
  • Kids Notice
  • Small Choices Add Up (bad and good)
