Moving toward something bigger than myself.
Welcome. I write for church leaders on topics like strategy and communication. Since this is your first visit, don’t forget to subscribe to my RSS feed.I posted a short article last week about risk and maintaining a risk-taking culture as your church grows. Over the weekend, I realized my own inexperience and lack knowledge disqualify [...]
Here’s a quick-list of some of latest and greatest in my life in the past couple weeks. They’re random, but this post isn’t a top ten list or a how-to article anyway, so I feel like it’s okay to be random today.
Erica and I bought a new camera yesterday. It’s a Canon Powershot G9. We [...]
I was going to title this post “How to be a To-Do Ninja,” but then realized my own distaste for the hyper-use of the word ninja. The way this system works is like magic. You’ll find yourself thinking, “How did I accomplish anything before Scott changed my life with his ‘How to be a Task [...]
Tim Stevens wrote, and will soon publish, a book on church strategy and its relationship to pop culture called Pop Goes the Church: Should the Church Engage Pop Culture?. I received a pre-release copy to review and return for revisions before it went to his publishers. Here are my thoughts.

If you’re a Digg fan, check out her tribute song.

Granger Community Church is a pretty cutting edge church. They set the bar high for other churches that try to use technology as a medium for presenting the Gospel.
Last week, the pastor spoke about loneliness and people that are around us that we ought to be helping. The intro to the sermon can be seen [...]
If you need a good laugh and you have a minute or two, please go to Ask A Ninja. It’s stinkin’ hilarious. I first saw this guy about five months ago. My brother had a few of these videos on his iPhone and used them to show off the video quality on the device. I [...]
I just posted a video to my tumblr page that deserves checking out. It’s thoroughly entertaining.
By the way, if you’re looking for a way to share ideas and thoughts more fluidly than what a blog can offer, check out tumblr. It’s like a more powerful form of twitter and better looking and customizable and less [...]
