This leadership portrait features Jeff and Kari Patterson. Together, they are the leaders of Renew Church in Oregon City, Oregon. Jeff is the lead pastor at Renew Church and also a triathlete.

Quotes from Jeff Patterson:
"People like to follow a leader who doesn't have it all together."
"Our title should follow the character we have."
"If I think of others as lesser than me, I will not elevate them."
Quotes from Kari Patterson:
"What men do in private effects every relationship they have."
"Public dishonor is chipping away at people's ability to follow that person."
Building and protecting trust:
-Never embarrass or make another person uncomfortable publicly.
-Create safety to fail in private by never misrepresenting your spouse/team in public.
-Ask for permission before sharing private stories in a public setting, and only if they will be helpful for others to know.
-Make role/job decisions based on gifting rather than tradition.
-Look for and act on opportunities to honor each other in public.
-Don't advertise a private disagreement into a public setting.
