Interesting Facts About Sand Hill Cranes

Bruce Larson, in his book “Wind and Fire”, points out some interesting facts about sand hill cranes: “These large birds, who fly great distances across continents, have three qualities. First, they rotate leadership. No one bird stays out in front all the time. “Second, they choose leaders who can handle turbulence. And then, all during the time one bird is leading, the rest are honking their confirmation. “That’s not a bad model for the church. Certainly we need leaders who can handle turbulence and who are aware that leadership ought to be shared. “But most of all, we need a church where all are honking encouragements.” (Encyclopedia of Illustrations #8989).
