Here's some simple management philosophy from Mark Cuban. When asked why he fired Avery Johnson as coach of the Dallas Mavericks, Cuban said:
"There's just times when things work until they don't."
I love that. Things change. Honeymoons end. Life marches on.
- We had many great years pastoring our first church, but it ended badly. Dad always said he stayed one year too long.
- Parachurch ministries come and go, and that's okay. They serve an needed purpose in the body of Christ. But many need to accept when it's time to close shop, rather than go into self-perpetuation mode.
- Local church programs lose effectiveness. Can them.
Just because something no longer works, it doesn't invalidate the thing while it lasted. Just means the world has moved on, and so should you.
Unless we're talking about marriage. Or the church. There are absolutes to follow.
Career-wise, I've been hanging around and writing about and cheering on churches and pastors for the past 25 years as my denomination's Communications Director.
