A simple story that communicates the spirit of eleve8… A couple of years ago, one of the RMI pickup trucks pulled into the parking lot at the office.  As the driver exited the vehicle, he started talking with another team member there by the side of the truck.  That other team member immediately noticed a wet rope that was left in the bed of the pickup overnight.  It had gotten wet from the rain the previous night as it laid disheveled in it’s place.  Here in RMI, we value order and stewarding what God has given us.  The rope should’ve been wrapped up and put in the back of the truck so it was ready for it’s next use.  Once he noticed the rope, he reached in and grabbed the rope to put it away. The driver who was ultimately responsible for that rope, asked, “Wow, why can’t I see

Is our eleve8 initiative new?  Definitely yes, but not really… Why isn’t this new?  For a long time, our desire has been to have a multiplication culture.  We’ve talked about empowering the team, raising them up, releasing them with authority to changes lives.  On a regular basis some of us have used the language “we are a teaching mission”.  We truly value our team members and believe in their potential.  Frankly, we’ve at times purposefully, strategically and patiently sacrificed short term excellence and expediency in order to generate long term personal and professional development and impact by our team members.  We’ve provided tools and some training to our team members, even if they’ve had little experience using these tools because we respect everyone’s ability to learn and grow into their roles.  We’ve started a learning resource library. We often choose to use the inexperienced because we believe in their God
