Raisin Culture (And How to Avoid It) Step Two

Culture doesn’t drift in the right direction—it gets defined.

In this episode of Speak On Purpose, we move to Step Two of The Great Church Culture Blueprint: Write It. Because if your culture only exists in your head, your team will create their own version—and it won’t be the one you intended.

Using a simple (and slightly painful) family fudge recipe story, we talk about why culture has to be written down before it can be repeated. Hope isn’t a strategy, and clarity isn’t optional. When values stay vague, behaviors get inconsistent.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why culture that isn’t written gets rewritten
• How to turn values into clear, repeatable behaviors
• What “Culture Commandments” look like in real life
• How clarity creates confidence for your team

If you want a culture that lasts beyond you, it has to be defined—clearly, simply, and intentionally.

Because culture isn’t mystical.
 It’s a recipe.
 And recipes only work when they’re written down.
