Jesus was constantly attacked and criticized by the Pharisees. They viciously condemned his theology, doctrine and lifestyle. Blasphemy was there battle cry against Him. But, have you ever asked "why were they really so worked up?"
I've always lived by the thought, "begin with the end in mind" -- I apply this to many areas of my life (from sermon prep, to ministry focus, to financial planning, to exercise objectives, etc)…
God is bigger & better than just a ‘church Santa Claus!’
Life is like a hallway with many doors — it's important not to hang out in the hallway for too long — but choose a door. Open it. And, enter whatever’s NEXT!
I want to see the CHURCH, that Jesus set in motion, RISE UP and RETURN to being a community-shaking, Holy Spirit powered, world-changing, enemy-crushing, non-stop-smiling, servant-warrior family who are super courageous and explode with crazy love!
Do you know why God made you? Have you asked Him? Maybe this blog will help you?
To the Christian leader, influence isn’t leverage to be exploited… it’s an earned opportunity to gracefully advance, encourage and become!
The best leadership ALWAYS begins and ends with the Lord. That's right, He MUST be Lord (not just Savior). When He's in charge, we are always suited to serve at the highest level.
IF it’s going to take a punch in the face (or worse) to get you moving? Call me, I’ll punch you! Anything to get the Word out! Chilly
