One of the blogs I like to follow is Craig Groeschel's at LifeChurch.tv: Swerve.
Recently he posed some challenging self examination questions:
Are the people closest to me in ministry lifting me higher or dragging me down?
How have I intentionally developed the leaders around me in the past week?
Am I speaking transparently with at least two other close trusted friends on a weekly basis?
Am I submitting myself to the correction and coaching of at least two mentors?
Am I holding a grudge against someone?Am I speaking well of other ministers?
Am I falling for the temptation of comparing, complaining, criticizing or gossiping?
Are my words and relationships characterized by words of faith or negativity?
Do people enjoy being around me or am I often “down”?
Have a made at least three new ministry friends in the last year?
Some of the responses are good too.
