You can either hate life or become a leader

November 2, 2010

I have this written in the front of my Bible but I’m sorry to say I don’t know who said it or wrote it: “You can achieve a large vision only through explosive growth.  Anything less will leave you far short of your dreams.  Becoming an explosive growth leader requires more than a change in […]

Remember, Repent, Return, Refocus

July 13, 2010

Lately, God has been taking me down a path of remembrance.  He is stressing upon my thoughts the importance of remembering where I’ve been, what I’ve seen Him do and coupling that with what I’ve learned recently in the past few years.  It takes both to move ahead in His plan and to see Him […]

Authentic Impacts

July 1, 2010

I read an article in Charisma recently called “Stop the Ego Show” by J. Lee Grady.  He talks about how we’ve created a monster – a version of Christianity that is slick, marketable and event – driven but lacking in authentic impact.  A total turnoff to people who are starving for genuine relationships. Authentic Impacts. […]

According to dictionary.com, reverence is having a high opinion of something.   It’s not a word we use in our everyday language too often, however we do use it’s counterparts:  to respect, esteem, approve, adore, be loyal to, delight in, appreciate.  I think Integrity fits into this as well.  Integrity is to be sincere – genuine, […]

Dare to be a little more average

May 13, 2010

I’ve always heard “dare to be more than average” and have taken it to heart.  Average is something anyone can achieve… or so I thought till today. Being a highly driven with a  perfectionist foundation I tend to set the standard too high for most others to reach.  Then periodically let the guillotine drop on […]

Recently I was asked the following:  “I need your ideas on how to get the team involved more.  So far we are the only ones working on it!” I have to admit I giggled at first.  I can relate to what she was saying.  I’ve been there – feeling like it was all up to […]

Here he is again – my favorite man in the whole world, John Chappell – ___________________________________________ Spring is a time to go outside and do those projects around the house that we avoided during the winter.  It is a refreshing time of year where we can pull out our power (and manual tools), proving to […]
