What is my church's greatest need? When Bob asks himself this question, his first vision is of a church with more members. He works hard to understand the dynamics of growing a church and to make inroads. He knows that Christians are wisest to promote their Faith by going forward together with two or more. Yet, he doesn't find even one ally when trying to get other members excited about his ideas. In reflection, Bob grasps that his vision was too narrow. Expanding, he asks himself about the central aspects of collective well-being within churches. How are we, individually and in community, mutually dependent? And, more and more, Bob sees the importance of a special skill-that is, a skill driven by values. He realizes the skill must not come from just a few, but from each of us-from everyone. Bob recognizes that he is obligated to develop talent in using the new skill and to help others do the same. All faithful must be partners in this endeavor-religion's greatest need.
