  1. The Corinthian team was made up of those who would (divide<\/span>) into camps based on personalities.<\/li>\n
  2. They cared more about their own (individual rights<\/span>) than they did about the reputation of Jesus.<\/li>\n
  3. A team that fights with another discredits the Prince of Peace, and no one will (believe our message<\/span>).<\/li>\n
  4. So few are willing to step out of their comfort zone to see people come to know Jesus.<\/li>\n
  5. A failure to see people as (God sees them<\/span>).<\/li>\n
  6. Some of the teams have decided not to use the Head Coach\u2019s (playbook<\/span>).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
