Do You Want To Be Great?

From Tim Suttle’s book titled Shrink:

Great is not necessarily good. The enduring power of greatness is its ability to entice human beings to trade the good for the great.

Your conscience for a fortune.
Your honesty for a kingdom.
Your friendship for a championship.
Your integrity for a big church.
Your soul for a chance at ministry greatness.

According to Suttle, the difference between Great and Good is often the difference between pragmatism and faithfulness. Between what works and what’s right.

Between short-term success and long-term contentment.

I want my work to be great, but never at the cost of good.

You?
