15. As you experience success don’t forget about the things you did that caused you to gain success. Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water. Don’t quit doing what has worked for you. |

9. Support and encourage those who help you. It is imperative that you build a support structure around your volunteers. This might sound wild but the best way I know to show others you believe in them is by releasing them to do the work of the ministry.... |
