It's impossible to have a healthy church that experiences multi-dimensional growth without trusting people enough to delegate leadership to them. Having said that, this remains one of the greatest bottlenecks to growth for thousands of churches. And delegation remains one of the hardest challenges for pastors and church staff members.
One of the reasons we fail to delegate leadership is our fear of wildfire. We're afraid things will get out of control—and indeed they will—but limiting control is actually what often fuels growth. We often encumber leaders with too much red tape. Policies and procedures have their place, but we can easily add so much structure that people don't feel free to lead and make decisions.
