Chuck Smith was 45 before Calvary Chapel took off. Great fruitfulness came after many years of faithfulness. http://jesus.to/VWhCbi
Too many young leaders start off strong but don’t finish well. http://jesus.to/VWhCbi

Young leaders, don’t just focus on results now. Learn and grow to get ready for your later years of ministry. http://jesus.to/VWhCbi

Older leaders, your most fruitful years might be your latest years. Stay faithful. http://jesus.to/VWhCbi/textarea>
