Let them go!
They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us. But they went out, that it might become plain that they all are not of us.
1 John 2:19
I heard T.D. Jakes say it first, but “When people can walk away from you: let them walk.” It’s easy to become enamored with the one that got away. This is especially true in the early days of starting a church! Keep in mind that your destiny is never tied to those that leave.
Let them go.
It doesn’t mean that they are a bad person – it just means that their part in your story is complete.
Stop begging people to stay. If it’s time for them to go – Let them go!!
