Volunteerism in the Church

I am impressed with the volunteers Calvary generates every year. We're kicking off Confirmation next Sunday, a four-month program that will involve the coordination of more than 30 volunteers and leaders. That's more people than worked at Google for its first five years.

My education background is in business, and that comes in handy. In my position, I will attempt to work with more than 100 different volunteers this year. And while I wish I could claim credit for an awesome group of leaders, I can't. All I really do is identify the good people and try to make sure we're all moving in the same direction.

I find good people. Then I point. Not a bad gig.
