Coach Tommy Bowden developed a system to help shape the character of his football players called CARDS. Today I want to talk about the A for Accountability.

Tommy points out that some basic skills that used to be taught in the home, like time management, are not as prevalent today. Many young people today are raised in undisciplined homes with little accountability.

Whether it’s a football team or a workplace, accountability is critical if you expect to get the most out of your teammates and reach your goals.

Jesus promoted accountability when he told the Parable of the Talents. In Matthew 25:28 we read, “Therefore: take the talent away from him, and give it to the one who has the ten talents.”

Are your team members held accountable for their responsibilities?
