Team

Team. Many thoughts and images come to mind when I think of "team" and also many questions.

  • what are the key ingredients of a team?
  • how big or small should a team be?
  • what personalities/experiences/spiritual gifts are required for that team?
Watch this video and think of all the elements of team that you see. This video is of a barn being built by the Amish from the foundation to completion. It is a 10 hour job time-lapsed in to a 3:30min video.

Here is what I see:

  1. they have the right resources for the project.
  2. they have the right materials to accomplish the project. Foresight: someone organized the materials and the workers to be there for that day
  3. they even take a meal break showing there are other people working behind the scenes to assist the build team. The team is much bigger than shown.
  4. they picked the right day to accomplish this project.
  5. they finished the project. 
Share what others things you saw about team from this video in the comments. 

Many Hands Make Light Work: Amazing what can be accomplished in a 10 hour day.everyone knows what they are to do on this project.
