soon and very soon
So I just checked my blog stats and was shocked to see that I still have followers! I haven’t updated my blog since March 19th! My sincere apologies. The silence should be over in about one week – when 99.9% of my seminary work will be completed for this semester.
Blessings, friends …

Yearning for change
“People yearn for change, they relish being part of a movement and they talk about things that are remarkable, not boring.”
- Seth Godin in his latest book, Tribes

Law of the lid
Years ago when I first read the 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership by John Maxwell, I rejected his idea of the law of the lid. Who did I think I was?? But now after observing leadership structures for a few years, I now see that it seems to be true.
In essence the law of the lid is that great leaders do not follow good leaders and that good leaders do not follow bad leaders. At least they don’t for very long. So if I can’t find good leaders around me, it may be an indication of my own leadership faults.
Pretty brutal.

Vision to die for
In 2007 I heard Bill Hybels give this quote:
“Are you willing to die for the vision that God has given your church? Are you a hired hand or owner?
Your congregation knows which one you are.
Own the vision.
