3Culture is the strongest force in an organization; not vision or strategy but the culture. The culture is what holds all other components of the organization. The answer to why your church is not where you think it should be could absolutely be because of the culture. It is my apostolic mandate to empower the body of Christ to develop a culture of excellence in our churches globally. Excellence is not the ultimate goal. Changed lives are the goal, but excellence merely describes the way we plan to achieve the goal. This book "Culture Shift" will teach, motivate and equip you to develop a powerful and trendsetting culture of excellence in your church. Shifting your life, ministry and church from where it is into the fullness of what God desires for it to be. The culture of excellence is the culture that allows you to be liberated from the prison of antiquated thought processes and not perform "behind bars" as usual. The culture of excellence becomes a leader's oxygen. Shifting the culture of your church will push you further into the purpose that God has designed for your community, city and region. -Aaron McNair, II
