Shane Arnold: Someone Must Lead: Part 1
http://shanearnold.blogspot.com/2010/05/someone-must-lead-part-1.html
Thursday, May 20, 2010. Someone Must Lead: Part 1. In our day words like "leadership" and "authority" are dirty words. We are individuals. No one tells us what to do. We have no authority, and we do not like to be lead. From the cradle we made demands and attempt to chart our own course, and we expect others to see it the same way. To make matters worse, we witness abuses of authority that makes us resist all leadership. The banker who abuses connections, the politician. So what is a spiritual leader?

Shane Arnold: August 2009
http://shanearnold.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 29, 2009. A Mission that Matters. A stirring reminded of the urgency of the task. What a Way to Start the Day. What do you say when you first wake up? Are you one of those rare persons who go into the day singing? Or are you like most of us who wake up thinking: why does that clock ring so early? We wake up worried about the mountain of work; dreading some uncomfortable part of the day; or nervous about it all. Before he died John Newton, the man who wrote the beloved hymn. It is no secr...

Shane Arnold: October 2009
http://shanearnold.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 29, 2009. Christians were never meant to sit and soak. We are meant to go and tell. That means a change in mindset and methods if we are going to be on mission. Watch and enjoy. We Need a Barnabas! But in the crucial moment Barnabas stepped up. He put himself and his reputation on the line and "took him and brought him to the apostles (v. 27)." When everyone else was afraid of who he used to be, one man was embraced who he could be in Christ. We Need a Nathan! Tuesday, October 13, 2009.

Shane Arnold: A Follow-Up

Tuesday, June 8, 2010. Have you ever read something and thought, "That's just what I was thinking? I had one of those moments today. One frustration that many leaders have is the foreboding. Sense that you spend most of your time oiling squeaky. Wheels. From time to time you think, "Just let the wheel squeak. I have work to do." While reading the book. By Larry Osborne, I came across this quote:. The fact is, oiling squeaky wheels can be hazardous to your. They ask, 'How will the squeaky will react?

Tuesday, June 30, 2009. Sanballet or Barnabas: whose voice do you have? On one level it seems silly. Talk should not stop construction. But for anyone who has been hurt by the words of another, we know how a well-timed insult can lay us on the floor. Even though we know this, this kind of talk still fills our relationships and hinders our families and churches. We get angry; we lash out; and the work of God in our lives suffers. How much better would it be to follow the pattern of Barnabas? Entities to c...

Shane Arnold: Artifical Rest and the Peace of Christ
http://shanearnold.blogspot.com/2010/08/artifical-rest-and-peace-of-christ.html
Monday, August 2, 2010. Artifical Rest and the Peace of Christ. Something similar often happens in our souls. We found ourselves in a world of evaluation. People judge; people watch; people talk. All of this conspires to rob us of rest. In response we often live the life of a performer. We forget authenticity and play for the camera. All the while peace is gone while we put on the show.

Shane Arnold: Someone Must Lead: Part 2

Thursday, May 20, 2010. Someone Must Lead: Part 2. Of course not. The rubble was there for decades. The problem was that they got so used to seeing the mess that they no longer yearned for a better day. They adjusted to the statues- quo. And needed a leader to call them to a better future. That is why there is a real need in the church for proactive leadership. All too often leaders are reactive and are moved only by complaints. Thus leaders spend most of their time putting out fires instead of l...Churc...
