ANECDOTE

Misbuttoned Shirt Example

  • Mark Jobe compares misbuttoning a shirt to starting a project wrong and needing to redo everything.
  • He uses this everyday example to stress the need to identify the correct 'first button' God is asking you to take.
INSIGHT

The First Step Determines The Outcome

  • A false or wrong first step forces you back to square one and can disqualify progress.
  • Getting the 'first button' right determines whether the whole rebuilding will hold together.
ADVICE

Delay Speaking Until You're Ready

  • Do wait to speak about a rebuilding plan until your faith and plans are confirmed and you're ready to follow through.
  • Do simmer on God's calling and avoid impulsive announcements that erode credibility.
