Quotes from Jared:
There is no quick fix. You can't build a volunteer base quickly. You have to put in the time.
Cast a big vision. Never sell volunteering based on need. You're here to change lives.
We can get so caught up in the work of ministry that we forget to pour into people.
Create high-capacity roles for your high-capacity volunteers. Let them own it.
