“The signs of outstanding leadership appear primarily among the followers reaching their potential. Are the followers reaching their potential? Are they learning? Do they achieve the required results? Do they change with grace?” - Max DePree #leadership

“What would you say to a young Christian who is nervous about the future?”
I love @TimKellerNYC’s answer. I think about it every Easter.

When I teach on Spiritual Gifts I share: 1) God gives people as gifts (Eph 4 - people gifts APEST); 2) God gifts people with gifts (Romans 12 skill gifts); and God gifts /empowers people for a given moment (1 Cor. 12 manifestation gifts).

When you start blending the gospel with nationalism, you don’t just confuse categories—you corrupt the message. The gospel isn’t about reclaiming a country; it’s about redeeming people.
This kind of distortion doesn’t stay contained. It ripples out—generation after generation—leaving behind a trail of disillusioned people who think Christianity is about moral superiority and cultural dominance instead of forgiveness and grace.
Lord have mercy.

“You know, the Yankees are not a good team. I don’t care what their record is. They have a lot of wild pitches. They make a lot of mistakes in the field. They don’t run the bases very well. And if they don’t hit home runs, they don’t have a chance to win.”

The biggest ministry resource your church needs isn't money.
It's the time and ability to be strategic.

Growth can feel like a death - Stepping into new places and leaving behind familiar or comfortable practices, habits or mindsets can feel like you are loosing a part of who you are but such an important step to take for growth to happen.

The most reliable way to change your entire life is by not changing your entire life.
If you try to change your life all at once, you will quickly find yourself pulled back into the same patterns as before. But if you merely focus on changing one specific habit, work on it until it becomes part of your normal day, you will find your life changes naturally as a side effect.
