Hedgehogs and Foxes

So, I plagiarized the title from Jim Collins' book Good To Great, I don't think Jim will ever notice!

In the book, Collins describes how some people/organizations are like foxes, they are constantly trying a new, cunning way to accomplish a task. While others are hedgehogs. The hedgehog has a clear, definable set of abilities and recognizes that consistently reproducing successful results makes you successful. This whole notion got me thinking. Did Jesus have a "hedgehog concept"? What was the unifying driving force behind what He did while on earth? Was it love? Was it to seek and save the lost? Was it to heal people? Just a question for consideration.

Then I got thinking about my personal "hedgehog concept" and that of the church network I am involved in. I started thinking, are we focused on one unifying goal? Are we all working like we know what that goal is? Do we have the right people on the bus? Is the goal achievable and consistent with our passion? If we continue to take the best people we have and move them out to other areas before we have accomplished our initial goal have we sold ourselves short? What would the wisdom be in keeping the best people in one area until we had sufficiently made inroads into our community? What would "sufficient inroads" be defined as? I have a whole lot of questions and hopefully there will be some more clarity.

What is your "hedgehog concept"?
