Pastors

One amazing way churches can live out the gospel is by offering recovery ministries like support groups and counseling.

Equip your leaders to reach out to men and women suffering from addictions.

People who don’t attend church aren’t as angry as we think. They’re apathetic. Anger would be easier to deal with.

What two reality TV shows taught me about bringing innovation, health, and joy to broken churches and pastors.

Small churches need to be innovative because we don't have the resources to be normal.

Gimmicks are like candy. They're fun for a moment. But you can't build a steady diet – or a strong church – on them.

A pastor who stops learning, stops leading. And a pastor who stops leading, stops pastoring. Even if they stay on the job.

How will we know when the next great move of God happens? Because it will be felt outside the church, too.

When was the last time you felt really, truly refreshed? Between late night committee meetings, weekends of services, and round-the-clock availability for counseling and crises, the demands of ministry all too often leave leaders feeling physically exhausted and spiritually limp. While we all know the importance of rest and renewal, it can be difficult to allow ourselves to take time out of our day to rest and renew our bodies and souls.
