The significant problems we have cannot be solved at the same level of thinking with which we created them.  – Albert Einstein

Albert was a pretty bright guy and I think he hit the nail on the head with this quote.  I think this idea is particularlly true for churches.  There are many times in the life of a church where a new level of thinking must be used to get past obstacles and become everything God wants the church to be.

The cool thing about all this is that God is THE source for new levels of thinking.  You can’t just make something like that happen on your own.  You need God’s help to “renew your mind” and thankfully He gives wisdom to everyone that asks “without finding fault.”
