Can church really help us? Friday, June 25, 2010. Many today are seeking a rich spiritual life. Unfortunately many of these will never consider looking to church to find it. There is an intentional aversion to all things “churchy”. So it seems logical to ask this question: “Can church really help us? Taking Communion: Living Thankfully. Going to Church: Committing to Community. Singing the Doxology: Radiating Glory. Listening to the Sermon: Learning Obedience. Giving Church Another Chance. 1 “Three...

Leadership First: March 2008
http://leadershipfirst.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 31, 2008. Links to this post. Friday, March 21, 2008. THE SURPRISING SIDE OF LEADERSHIP. Servants of Jesus are not to be motivated by the lure of control or power, or by the need to fill a personality self-worth deficit-disorder. Beware of those dark sides of leadership. Surprisingly, a true leader finds joy and fulfillment in empowering and equipping others so they can contribute in service – you can read about it in Ephesians 4:11-13. Links to this post.

Leadership First: February 2009
http://leadershipfirst.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 14, 2009. Again I am indebted to Carey Nieuwhof for drawing this next point to our attention. "You can tell people they are significant, but until you give them something significant to do, they won't feel significant. Maybe the problem of burnout in churches is not that we have given people too much to do; maybe it's that we've given people too many insignificant things to do.". Links to this post.
