A Constant Journey

I’m kind of a geek for self-discovery.  I love uncovering the layers of who God has created me to be.  I love deciphering what is authentically me and what has been shaped by my life experiences. I love personality profiles, self-help quizzes, spiritual gifts tests and just about anything that helps me “make a careful […]

Catalyst Junkie

I remember the first time I attended Catalyst. It was Catalyst’s 2nd year. I’d heard crazy good things about the first year and I was hungry to soak myself in an environment that would feed the leadership development monster that was growing inside of me. Over the last 10 years, Catalyst has become a staple […]

Peanut Butter Days

I was 20 years old.  The world seemed big and bright to this wide-eyed small town girl from Northern Wisconsin.  I had already spent two years 1000 miles away from home beginning my education and now was taking one of the greatest risks yet.  I was loading up my 1992 4-door burgundy Saturn named “Alice” […]

Clearing through the Clutter

One of the challenges I find as a leader is sorting through all of the great resources out there for equipping yourself and your team.  There are so many GOOD books, articles, blogs, etc. that sometimes I feel like all I’m doing is reading or studying rather than applying anything that I’m learning. I also […]

What’s the Measure of Your Love?

I’ve been reading through I Corinthians lately and this morning I stumbled upon the “love” chapter.  I started to quickly skim through it since I can recite this chapter with little effort.  I’m sure my good Christian school education made me memorize this chapter one February long, long ago. 🙂 But as I began to […]
