needs want problem
I've talked to many individuals who want to discuss their problems. But they don't really have problems. They have chosen to live in the wrong direction. They don't need a solution. They need a new direction.
mean giving goal
As you give to fund God's needs, are you forced to trust Him to provide for yours? That's what a growing faith is about. And over the long haul, it's not enough just to commit to a percentage. Growth means reviewing your giving goals and occasionally increasing the percentage you give.
people priorities vision
What people pray for will tell you more than anything else whether they are locked into the vision and priorities of the church.
lying believe want
We begin selling ourselves on what we want to do rather than what we ought to do. We listen to ourselves until we believe our own lies, and the we opt for happiness.
insecure thinking leader
The insecure leader will interpret critical thinking as critiscism.
heart home buckets
[God] wants you to go home, look at your bucket of seed, and determine in your heart how much you'd like to sow. He wants you to consider thoughtfully your current circumstances, your life, your potential, and your finances. He wants you to involve your family. He wants you to pray about it. And then He wants you to come up with a plan.
character leader scare
Your talent and giftedness as a leader have the potential to take you farther than your character can sustain you. That ought to scare you.
decision wake-up quests
Most of us wake up every day and make decision that will make us happy, and generally decisions that will make us happy right then in the moment or that day. We are not really on a truth quest.
jesus heart secret-places
Just as Jesus predicted, what originates in the secret place won't always remain a secret. ... How do we guard -- or maybe it would be more appropriate to say, guard against -- our hearts? How do we monitor what's going on in that secret place that has the potential to go public at any moment?
leadership christian dream
"How" is what kills vision and dreams. Don't ask "How" until we figure out the "What". The "How" can kill the "What".
leadership christian vision
Resources follow vision.
leadership christian people
If a leader goes with their gut, it should be after listening first to people they trust.
leadership christian home
If you want to know if I'm a Godly man, follow me home.
leadership christian church
Charisma on stage is not necessarily evidence of the Holy Spirit.
