Life has seasons. Some good. Some bad. Some slow. Some busy. Ministry also has seasons and I’m in one of those really busy ones. The season where you hold on for dear life and pray that you don’t steamroll everyone around you in your haste and intensity. Most of the time I really thrive in […]
I’m still trying to catch my breath from a great week at Catalyst. I left immediately from Atlanta to join my extended family in Orlando for a week of family vacation. Can you say W H I R L W I N D? And although a few days have past, I would be remiss if […]
Along with the majority of the Christian universe, I am at the Catalyst Conference in Atlanta this week. This will be my 9th time to attend Catalyst – that just seems ridiculous. Ridiculous because when I starting coming to this conference for “next generation leaders” I actually was a “next generation” leader. The startling reality […]
If you were to walk into my home on any given day you would start picking up on some clues about what makes my family tick. Our family values begin to surface pretty quickly. Whether it’s the tennis rackets or gym bags indicating a value of fitness, or the stacks of books on shelves throughout […]
So after three weeks I don’t think I’m going to get a pass any week of this series. It appears that I wrestle with all the idols thus far [sigh]. The Illusion of Money by Pete Wilson No one thinks money is an idol in their lives. Luke 12:13-15 Greed comes in so many different […]
I’m in Dallas this week learning from the amazing women who have been a part of the Leadership Network Women Executive Pastor Community that I’ve been a part of for the last 18 months. This trip is bittersweet because it’s the last of our group meetings. To be honest, I was skeptical about joining this […]
As a student of leadership, I’ve been wrestling with a question for some time… What’s the real difference between management and leadership? Leadership has become such a glamorized word in our culture. It feels so much nicer and more inspiring than the often derogatory connotation that comes with the word management. But the longer I […]
I was really hoping I was gonna catch a break this week on the “Empty Promises” series… you know, take a little breather since last week’s message about the idol of success was such a kick-in-the-pants for me, but N O P E. No. “Addicted to Approval” hit me right between the eyes, and so… […]
I’m in beautiful Chicago this week hanging out with a bunch of amazingly creative people at the Story Conference. While I’m not usually described as a “creative-type”, I love being around the energy of creative people. I love how they process and view life. I love how they dream big ideas that would never occur […]
