TiltTilt:
Small Shifts in Leadership That Make a Big Difference
By Erik Rees and Jeff Jernigan (Abingdon, 2010)

“Once you have understood who you are—and aren’t—in ministry and gathered around you a ‘dream team’ to collaborate with you, the time has come to give away the ministry so the entire congregation can share the experience of seeing God’s ‘infinitely more’ vision become a reality in your community. … It is not enough to build a great team, mobilize a following and plant them in your ministry. The harvest is so much bigger than a single ministry. We must empower people to respond to what God has called and gifted them to do inside and outside our own particular team, church or ministry.” –Erik Rees and Jeff Jernigan, from the book

What Does It Mean That We’ll Still Be Finite in Heaven?

The promise of Heaven is not that we will become infinite—that would be to become inhuman. It’s that we’ll be far better finite humans than we have ever been.

When Christian Leaders Crash and Burn

When we hear of leaders falling, we must take a look in the mirror and remind ourselves to live holy lives.
