In My Recent Trip to Kansas City…

----Bart, Kim (far right) and three of the KC pastors (Chris, Golden and Eric) they are serving----
I met a tribe leader. Seth Godin would define a tribe leader as someone who is leading a group of people by serving their needs. In and around the geography of Kansas City, Bart Nill, and his assitant Kim, are tribe leaders for pastors in the area of stewardship.
How has Bart won over their trust? He genuinely cares about them, and tries his best to help them achieve the goals and vision God has given them for their local congregations. Bart regularly meets with pastors in groups of 4 and pours his life out for theirs.
And they love him for it.
It’s really incredible to watch. Bart invited me to an event the night before Crown ignite! was held in KC. He was presenting the case for the ministry to several friends and supporters. Several of his pastor friends were there.
More than anything else I was struck by how much they loved this guy. I mean, I really believe that they would take a bullet for him. And when they need something in the area of stewardship, guess whose opinion they’re gonna seek out?
