What drives you?

I have noticed that the way you tell who is passionate about what…  If someone stays on top of things or is very proactive in a specific area, then its a good sign that they are passsionate in that area.  Not always, but for the most part this is true.

This is really helping me determine if the right people are in the right seats on the train.  The train is big and there are many seats, but certain seats require the right person.  I like the train analogy, because Canvas is a train with several cars…Elevate, Journey, Action, Admin, etc.  Each train car has someone tend that particular car and that seat is specific.  Those people have to be passionate about that car and the other people riding in it.  There are other seats too, some are general seating, but some are specific with decending responsibility.

When people are passionate about an area of the church or ministry, they rise to the top and are noticed becuase God has given them a calling and desire to fill a seat on the train.  What drives you in the church…on Sunday…during the week?  God may be leading you into something.
