PIN Blog

One of the things that I have been praying for a long time is that I would be replaceable. Not at my house, but at PIN. When you start a non-profit it is really good to have a strong leader to get things started. Early in the formation of the organization too many leaders can hurt the organization. So in the beginning the founder/first leader of a non-profit usually is not easily replaced and I don't think that is unhealthy initially. As time goes by if there is not a shift of leadership to more than one person and the founder/first leader maintains that some position as early on it will become unhealthy for the leader and the organization. In the past if I was out of town it was very difficult to make everything run smoothly and I kept praying that God would provide the right people.

So this weekend I'm going out of town and PIN will be running completely with people who are core to PIN. Not only that PIN has a great board of directors who leads the organization now and into the future. This is an Awesome day for PIN that I had been praying for this day for a long time. If I were to get hit by a bus (I don't know why I use that example all the time) and were unable to run PIN, I believe it would continue on without me. Sure there might be some bumps but I think there is now a structure in place that PIN would continue without me, and that is SO AWESOME. What God is doing and will continue to do through PIN is way too important for one person to be able to stop, and it would really make me sad if I were the person that stopped PIN.

Someday I'm going to be in heaven, and I can't wait to look down and see all the lives that are still being changed by PIN.
