Today I am being dispatched by Injoy Stewardship Solutions (ISS) to attend the Chick-Fil-A Leadercast.  In an effort to grow in my skills to better add value to pastors and church leaders, I will be live blogging throughout.

The third speaker was author and Navy SEAL CMDR Rorke Denver.

Before getting to CMDR Denver’s thoughts on being a brave and bold leader, INJOY Stewardship Solutions is offering a FREE download of Church Branding 101.  In this resource Ken Wilson, Director of NewSpring Creative, will be walking us through NewSpring Church’s recent rebranding process.  Click here or on the image above to sign up.

The following are  16 Leadership Lessons And Quotes From CMDR Rorke Denver:

  1. This stage makes me better. It demands more of me.
  2. Bravery seems like something we exhibit.
  3. The counterpoint to bravery is fear.
  4. Fear and bravery are dependent on each other. You can’t have one without the other.
  5. The response to fear is to face it. It is to immerse yourself in that which you fear. It is the inoculation of fear. That’s where you find bravery.
  6. Limit your field of view and you’ll see more.
  7. Make bold corrections. If you make little shifts you will get little results.
  8. Bravery doesn’t have to be a solo experience. Make bravery a team sport.
  9. Choose your ruck (backpack) wisely. No matter what size ruck you pick, you will fill it.
  10. Choose the amount of work you’re going to take on wisely.
  11. A harmonic gate is when an animal is in a series of movement for which God intended it.
  12. We have set everything up in our lives to avoid pain. And it’s a mistake.
  13. Physical pain has the ability to fix the physical and transform the spiritual.
  14. I’m in charge of two things in my household – security and maintenance. My wife is in charge of everything else.
  15. Lean into the pain. Recognize pain is a growth opportunity.
  16. My buddies advanced on fear and found bravery most people will never know.
