Shared by Darren
What a powerful story of what God is doing in this girl's life!

Few things are as thrilling as having a front row seat to watch people take steps of faith and trust God in new ways.  Here’s just one of many incredible stories from Faith, Hope and Love.

Anti-Consumerism: Worst Church Outreach Strategy Ever?

Live Intentionally

church sign stole mowerIn yesterday’s post, we looked at how some churches are trying to attract people and asked the question:

Are churches essentially bait-and-switching people when they say “come to our church because of what is in it for you” to get people in the door and then turn around and say, “Christianity is not about what’s in it or you but it’s about loving, serving, sacrificing, and giving to others?”

Why We Miss Opportunities

Perry Noble | Leadership, Vision & CreativityPerry Noble | Leadership, Vision & Creativity

Last month while reading the book of Jeremiah God slammed me with Jeremiah 46:17

Pharaoh was a leader…he had potential…but for some reason he MISSED his opportunity.

It wasn’t that the opportunity wasn’t there…it was that he missed it.  AND…the same thing CAN happen to us if we are not careful.

I began thinking about why we, as leaders, miss opportunities…here are a few reasons.

#1 – Laziness ...

#3 – I Spoke In Absolutes, Saying That We Would Always Do Certain Things and “Never” Do Other Things.

If you want to make God laugh…tell Him about all of the things you will and won’t do…and watch over time how He will cause you to eat your words!

When we first began NewSpring I said that I would never teach on giving…because it made people uncomfortable.  Until I actually begin digging into...

How'd You Get In Here?

Mark Beeson

POSTED No Hunting Sign 111609 blog 

Earlier this week I was sitting in some weeds enjoying a crisp fall morning. At sunrise I looked up to see I was perfectly secreted on the fence-row. I was directly under this sign.

The sign clearly states no one can get in here. No one can trespass here. No one can hunt here. It may as well read, "Don't Even Think About It." If you aren't family you have no business here. You can't walk...

Training and Education Must Be Part of Your Strategy

ChurchCrunch


dilbert-jobs

It honestly amazes me how many people still tend to forget that part of the strategy in terms of moving an organization forward technologically must be education and training.

In fact, for many organizations it’ll be the most significant part, requiring the most time, attention, and focus.

Most organizations have one or two people that “get it”; all the rest need to be trained and/or educated...

Five Mistakes I Made As A Young Leader–Part One

Perry Noble | Leadership, Vision & CreativityPerry Noble | Leadership, Vision & Creativity

One of the questions most often asked of me by pastors when we meet is, “what are the mistakes you made when you were a young leader that you wish someone would have talked to you about?”

Five always come to mind…

#1 – I thought that people who did not believe just like me were stupid, ungodly and should be avoided and rebuked.

This attitude stems from pride and arrogance…which is a danger with a...

Holly Answers: Our weekend schedule

Pastor Steven Furtick

Many of you ask specifically about my role on the weekends. This is a complicated question because my role has changed so much as our church and our family has grown. However, even though my role has changed, my objective on the weekends has remained the same. My primary goal is to support my husband on the weekends.
