Vision vs. Execution, pt. 1
I shared these thoughts with some of our team this afternoon. People are usually good at one or the other. But what does it take to capture the vision of what you’re trying to accomplish AND execute that vision? Here’s part 1:
Vision
Vision is seeing the big picture.
Vision can take the form of:
*A statement – FC’s vision statement is to “lead people into a
growing relationship with Jesus Christ.”
*A goal – “We want to see people _____________ people in
attendance for our Easter service.”
*A drive – “I will do whatever it takes to make this succeed.”
Another definition – Vision is seeing something that you want to see happen even when it hasn’t happened yet. (this resembles faith, doesn’t it?)
-If you don’t have a vision or a passion for your
ministry/work/innovation, get one, get out, or be looking forward
to having someone else lead the way.

My vision is actually the execution. as long as someone else has a cool vision, I really love to execute it to perfection, thus accomplishing both our visions.
However, sometimes life seems better when the vision is never really reached, but rather we approach it until infinity. If we accomplished all our visions, then we’d be visionless, or at least we’d have to find a new one.
