Circle of Trust by Doug Talley
|
When it comes to behavioral profiles,
I tend to be more task oriented than relational. That's in my wiring, and I've come to accept
that is how God has created me. However,
I value relationships and realize they are extremely important in my life.
 For the last
eight years or so I have been part of a group of six guys (all pastors) who
meet at least annually for a retreat in which we process life together. When the group first started, I knew one of
the guys pretty well, three of the guys casually, and one not at all. We have different personalities and our
ministries look different. We have
different behavioral profiles, personalities, gifts, preferences, etc... but we
share a common commitment to support and bring out the best in each other.
The group started
because we were all nearing midlife and wanted to finish our lives and
ministries well. We'd heard too many
stories of people in ministry who got knocked out in the last half of their
ministry, and we wanted to guard against that.
So we made a commitment to help each other finish well. Read more...
