DAY 2: Learning Through Failure

 

 

 

Failure is often something understood as something to be feared. But does it have to be?

 

In this video, Craig and Andy are asked: If you’re embracing ideas from another church and it doesn’t work, how do you recover from that and not let a defensive mindset set in?

 

Andy and Craig reframe failure not as something to be feared, but rather as something to be understood in the context of a bigger vision and as an indication of innovation.
