What the Church Should Learn from Google (3 of many)

Think Big!!!!

What the Church Should Learn from Google (3 of many): "

3. They haven’t arrived.


Most of us would say Google is pretty big. Just 11 years after they launched their search engine, they are one of the top ten most well known brands in the world. But despite how big they’ve become, they continue to think bigger. Instead of looking back at what they’ve accomplished, they look outward and to the future.


For example, with Google Translate they are aiming to break down language barriers across the globe. That’s a pretty ambitious goal, but it’s just the kind of big vision that helps propel organizations to go further.


As churches, it’s really easy to look at what God’s done–our history, heritage, or recent success–and become more focused on that instead of the big opportunities for what could be.


Is your church as big as Google?


No? Great, there are a lot more opportunities for your church to reach this world.


Yes? Great, there are a lot more opportunities for your church to reach this world.
