We've always done it...

I was listening to a minister today speak about a fundraising program at his church. He wanted to lead them to change a particular aspect of the event. "But this is the way that we've always done it."

Pretty common response.

As I was riding the shuttle through Alexandria the other day, I noticed this Starbucks. Look how old the building is. Old. And yet there is a Starbucks inside of it.

Think that is the way they've always done it?

No. What are the possibilities if we trust God a little more and let go of "how we've always done it?"

Of course, I'm guilty of this, and I need the reminder, too.
