Leading people, or promoting vision?
I’m learning something new about leadership. If you’ve been around leadership material and if you frequent conferences, then you’ve read and you’ve heard a lot about “vision.” And while vision is an awesome thing, and we quote the scripture…”the people perish for lack of vision,”….is vision what retains leaders?
I’ve been under almost every kind of [...]
How do you find your identity?
Living a life in Christ is an adventure for sure and I’m slowly learning that the process of discovering myself is an ongoing one. This past weekend, I was able to be part of the worship experience here at Cross Timbers where I currently serve as the Technical Director. I realized something for the first [...]
The truth…it’s really simple.
We refuse to wear masks and play games. We don’t maneuver and manipulate behind the scenes. And we don’t twist God’s Word to suit ourselves. Rather, we keep everything we do and say out in the open, the whole truth on display, so that those who want to can see and judge for themselves in [...]
Inspired to keep pushing
Drew Brees and the Saints go on to win over the Miami Dolphins 46-34 in the 4th QTR. Truly, this game today was one of the best football games I’ve ever seen. In this moment, I feel inspired to keep pushing by a man who himself just did not give up in the face of [...]
Leadership lessons from a choir room
Above is the image of two signs posted on the wall of a local church choir room. I look at these signs and I do two things. First, I laugh. Then secondly, I hurt for the guy or gal that put these signs up on the wall. Here’s a question for you, how many people [...]
Something about leadership
I have a question for you. Are you a leader or do you just like to be seen as a leader? One thing I’ve learned about leading is that it’s not about me, but it’s all about others. I remember a long time ago reading through some John Maxwell material and several things stuck out [...]
Humility goes a long way…
I was so glad that I got to watch the press conference on ESPN this morning announcing that Michael Vick is back and signed on for a year with a two-year option for the Philadelphia Eagles. Whenever I first heard of him coming back to the NFL, I really didn’t have an opinion. But after [...]
WHY do you do what you do?
I was watching the Presidential Address to the nation tonight about Obama’s healthcare reform bill and something caught my attention. On Fox News, there’s this ticker at the bottom of the screen that continually scrolls other news stories while you are watching. And one of the news flashes was of a story released today by [...]
Are you leading or observing?
Had the opportunity to attend the Catalyst One Day event in Dallas this past week. Great day. The big takeaway for me was a simple leadership lesson. You’re responsible for those that you lead.
I can’t even tell you how many conversations I’ve been a part of where someone says, “well, our church just doesn’t _____.” [...]
