Their team dynamic has changed quite a bit over the years as Ross has sought to make the best of the team that he has.

"You can have control or growth, but you can't have both." Leadership can become a blockage for growth.

It took 3 years to move from rosters to teams, because change takes time.

The importance of understanding pain of changing needs to be less than the pain of not changing.

How they started moving to teams with pre-existing teams like youth ministry.

The importance of clarifying expectations of people on teams.

Obstacles that needed to be overcome, like people not believing that a teams mentality would work.

While they have grown from 100 to 300 people in their church they have not felt the need to grow the staff team.

Giving people responsibility is the key to growth.

Change happens slowly, one thing at a time.
