Some key takeaways from this conversation:
Rich Stearns on success-driven culture: "We are breathing this colorless, odorless gas of success that we almost don't even notice, because it's just everywhere. And then you have to ask the fundamental question, Does God care if we're successful? Does he want us to be successful? Or is there something else?"
Rich Stearns on trusting God with the outcomes: “Once you've surrendered the outcomes...it's very liberating. It's very freeing, because it no longer depends on me. God is just calling me to be faithful, to take the gifts and talents he's given me and to use them with diligence, and do the best I can.”
Rich Stearns on balance in life and ministry: "You need balance in your life. You need time with your family, you need time to recharge your batteries, you need to delegate things to other people made in the image of God who are gifted and called. You have to extract yourself from certain decisions and certain meetings and say, I'm just going to trust the people around me to do it."
