Today, I am going to really do a 180 on you, because I am going to talk to you today about some 7 TAKEAWAYS FROM THE 2026 SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION. While events began on Saturday, both Sunday and Monday were full as well. All was pointing to last Tuesday and Wednesday in Orlando, Florida. These two days, Tuesday and Wednesday, are traditionally reserved for the Southern Baptist Convention's Annual Meeting.

The summer season is completely different from the other seasons of the year. At times, it seems summer slows life down, so you can breathe, take some personal time, and renew yourself physically, emotionally, and spiritually. At the same time, summer can be very busy, filled with extra activities, days of travel, and perhaps even many different experiences. Parents with kids at home still have to navigate personal schedules, plus camps, perhaps Vacation Bible School, and other special opportunities children are afforded today.

One of the most important duties of a leader is to build a self-sustaining culture that builds teams and mobilizes people. Otherwise, the leader spends their time and effort going uphill endlessly, relying on their own leadership ability. I want each of you, as leaders, to build teams that mobilize people toward a common vision and mission. So, tell your friends and colleagues about this episode and its subject, and we will all grow together. My name is Ronnie Floyd, so stay tuned right now for the For Leaders Podcast 95th episode titled: LEADERS BUILD TEAMS AND MOBILIZE PEOPLE.
