As creatives we always are measuring ourselves. Measuring against other churches, against measuring against other creatives and sometimes we get stuck because we feel we don’t measure up. Our lives are shaped by how we choose to spend our time and energy each day. Measuring can help us spend that time in better ways, more consistently. But we must measure the right things. Greatness in any field comes from taking a novel idea and pushing it to its logical conclusion, redefining the medium in the process.
