Why the Ideal Church Size Debate Is Unhelpful

Church size alone is not an indication of health or unhealth.

Leading With Kindness

Kindness isn’t weakness, it’s the expression of strength from someone who has something to offer. Kindness is not automatic, it’s a gift that you must choose to give.

Evangelism and the Privatization of Faith

Make friends, in your own way, and avoid isolating yourself—be open to show and share the love of God.

Does God Exclude Some From His Work?

The Lord’s best servants are the congregation’s best leaders. Those who lead best are humble servants willing to stoop and wash the feet or rise and lead the charge, whatever the situation requires.

When Small Churches Play Dress Up

Sure your communications, media, and tech teams want to do amazing things. So they bring out the fog machines, fancy lights, and the worship leader reaches far beyond the capabilities of the choir or worship team.

Why Churches Should Consider Inviting a Vocational Evangelist

A significant number of churches have never invited a vocational evangelist to speak. Why not?

That’s Not in the Bible!

When someone is going through a difficult time in life, whether they are feeling overwhelmed, stricken with grief, or just generally burdened, they are often encouraged that though their challenges are considerable, God would never give them more than they could handle. This is not a biblical concept.

Should My Church Launch a New Location?

Reproducing campuses is not the same as adding another ministry to your church. Moving from a “mono-site” to a “multi-site” church mentality is a major paradigm shift.

Defending Marriage

It takes courage to stand with Scripture in a culture hostile to its moral compass. Sometimes it takes even more courage to stand up to your own religious peers when they are the ones capitulating to that culture.

A Beautiful Reunion

If discipleship does not lead to evangelism, we should ask ourselves, "Who am I really following?"
