106. Purpose over pride: Why collaboration is crucial for faith-inspired work – The Polished Network Faith Inspired Podcast

    • Christianity

Community and unity are, in essence, a part of Christianity’s DNA. So collaborations and partnerships should come at ease for Christians. However, that's not always the case. Pride can often rear its ugly head, creating strife and tension in areas where unity is desired. Amy Cedrone and Catherine Gates are no strangers to collaborations. When God told them a permanent partnership was needed through the merger of their two organizations, they knew the first step they needed to take to have prayer and peace trump pride each step of the way. In this episode, Amy and Catherine share their story of combining their two organizations into one, how they have managed to tame the messy parts along with their pride, and how they’ve put unity and shared values first to create a partnership like no other. So listen in if you want to hear the impact collaborations and partnerships can have on your mission and goals, the benefits of collaboration and working together as a body within the Christian community, and the practical steps to initiate collaboration with like-minded organizations or individuals.
