Today is my sister Jes’ birthday so I thought I would take the chance to tell you more about her and share some pics. Hilda, as I affectionately call her, has always been the bright, cheery, outgoing one of the two of us. She loves people and is a loyal friend. She encourages me more than she probably knows and I’m […]
I’ve discovered that being with family can bring out some of the best and worst of my leadership. Here’s a couple of notes from my journal: In the absence of leadership I step up to lead. It can be something as simple as making breakfast, but if I don’t feel like anyone is taking control I […]
So, I have been overwhelmed by the comments and responses to Pete’s blog yesterday about women finding their voice. Thank you Pete for your support and encouragement and thank you to those of you who posted a kind comment about me or told me so personally. Women in leadership has been a passion of mine since […]
Pat spoke today at Cross Point about Influence. It was a great message that caused me to reflect on the last few days. I flew to Wisconsin on Wednesday to celebrate my grandparents 50th Wedding anniversary and it involved a lot of reminiscing with people I haven’t seen in many, many years. Here are some […]
Every Thursday morning for the past several weeks I have been attending the Young Leaders Council class. This is an organization in Nashville that trains and develops leaders for non-profit boards. It’s a great program that I am excited to be a part of. The information that I have been learning has been really helpful […]
I’m a notorius multi-tasker. It’s like a game to me to see how much I can cram into a day and how much I can do at one time. This morning in my typical multi-tasking, I was blow drying my hair while reading from 2 Timothy. (I actually keep a Bible tucked in my bathroom cabinet […]
In case you missed church today, we announced that we’ll be adding a third service at 6:00 p.m. on Sunday evenings beginning February 24th. There will be a lot to do in just three short weeks to get ready for this new service time. The great thing about expanding ministries is that it gives more people a […]
Since Pete‘s message on Sunday I’ve been really giving some thought to more clearly defining what is my driving God-given passion. There have definitely been seasons in my life where I have been more in tune with this than others and it seems that the timing of this reminder was important for me. I’m an “achiever” by nature (see […]
It was another great day at Cross Point yesterday! We are continuing to have record attendance each weekend. As a result we are investigating options for a third service. At this point it’s not really a matter of if we’ll do a third service, it’s about what time. We’ve talked about adding a 12:30 p.m. […]
My good friend Kat Davis has been doing this thing called The Daily Verse for years now. We were just punk kids working at ForeFront when she started emailing her friends a verse for the day with her commentary. Well, her list grew and now has over 2000 subscribers through www.thedailyverse.com. Here is today’s verse. I encourage […]
