Leadership is an expensive calling. It will cost you time that would be easier to waste.

LK 14:28-30
“Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Will he not first sit down and estimate the cost to see if he has enough money to complete it? For if he lays the foundation and is not able to finish it, everyone who sees it will ridicule him, saying, `This fellow began to build and was not able to finish.’

“Counting the cost” is a biblical idea that applies to every area of the leader’s life. Whatever you do is going to require some energy, and life is too short to focus on ideas that don’t matter.

Building the house of God matters — it’s as simple as that. Sow your life into it.
