Facing down the giants in the church
I often think of the account in the Old Testament where Moses sent twelve spies into the land that would one day become their home. The vast majority of the spies came back and reported to the nation that "there are giants in the land" and that it would be impossible for them to prevail.

The unique fingerprint of your church
God's creativity is amazing. With 7 billion people on our planet, no two fingerprints are alike. No two people are alike.And, no two congregations are alike.
