TweetTruth: Your Pastor is weak. He’s flesh. He’s human, frail, and doesn’t always have it all together. He may be faithful to God and thereby filled with the Holy Spirit, but there’s always a secret side to him. He will probably never mention it in a sermon or a Deacon’s meeting. Chances are, he won’t [...]

Unleash Ministries: A Great Church Helping Church Leaders
TweetWhen I find a great resource for Pastors and church leaders, I love to pass it along. Perry Noble and Newspring Church have just tossed up a pretty awesome little site devoted to connecting with leaders and providing resources. Go check out Unleash Ministries.
Lessons On Community from Huntington Beach
TweetHuntington Beach represents authentic southern California beach culture. You’ve got bodybuilders working out on the sand, skateboards and bikes covering the boardwalk, and street performers driving nails up their noses for tip money. My family and I visited there yesterday with the Krumm’s, friends of ours here in Orange County. It was a fascinating taste [...]
Take the Gospel to Your City
TweetI’ve been writing a few posts about our recent road trip in east Texas and introducing you to a few of the people we met and interacted with along the way. On Friday of that trip, we made our way to Austin and met up with some folks who are absolutely on fire to saturate [...]

TweetAs I chronicle some pieces of our recent road trip to Texas to meet with Pastors around the southeastern part of the state, I’m sharing some of the tidbits of wisdom we picked up along the way. We had eleven meetings over three days and essentially tried to drink all the advice we could from [...]

I’m going to take a few days and blog some of the highlights – [...]
My First Article for Pastors in Rick Warren’s Ministry Toolbox
TweetIn today’s edition of Rick Warren’s Ministry Toolbox I’ve written an article for Pastors about how we get to serve as examples to the people whom we lead… We’re all probably familiar with the old adage, “values are more caught than taught.” And no doubt, if you’re in ministry, you are guided by Peter’s words [...]
Pastor, Don’t Forget Your Soul!
TweetThis is the age of innovative ministry techniques and methodologies. We’re mad with creativity, which I love, but at times we can be right in the midst of innovation and be missing out on developing something so much more vital – our souls. I went through a period quite a few years ago in which [...]
Committees Don’t Do Ministry, People Do Ministry
TweetCommittees meet. They schedule a meeting to talk about all the stuff there is to do and who could possibly do it. I was reading this morning from John Maxwell’s Leadership Gold: Lessons I’ve Learned from a Lifetime of Leading. In chapter 18, entitled “the secret to a good meeting is the meeting before the [...]
