Facing Today's 800 Pound Gorilla by Marc Stein
By Marc Stein ~ The trend is unmistakable. The American Church is waning and few among us are even talking about it. It’s our 800 pound gorilla.

Passing the Baton By Wess Stafford
I can’t wait for next year’s Summer Olympic Games in Brazil. I love track and field events, especially the exciting relay races — often won or lost in the split seconds of passing the baton from one runner to the next. Do it with excellence, and the whole team will prosper. Fumble or drop the…
This is the Day by R. Scott Rodin, Ph.D.
By R. Scott Rodin, Ph.D. ~ I am a lover of anticipation. I enjoy the days leading up to a vacation almost as much as the vacation itself.

By Janet L. Stump ~ Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. If anyone…
Developing God-First Leaders by John C. Reynolds and Andrew Barton
By John C. Reynolds and Andrew Barton ~ Frequently, ministry leaders see succession management as the domain of well-funded corporate entities with complex HR departments and elaborate leadership development strategies. However, to do so misses a critical element of a ministry’s future. The goal of an intentional organizational succession management process — whether sophisticated or…
The Power of Positive by Rich Kidd
By Rich Kidd ~ Have you ever had the cubicle next to a complainer? You know the type… the one who thinks the office has only two temperature settings… “Too hot” or “Too cold?” The one who thinks the boss is either “a micro manager” or “never available?” They take up your lunch break and…
