I help growth-minded pastors lead through ministry pressure with clarity and confidence.

FOR PASTORS: Proximity creates empathy. It also creates paralysis. Today's conversation is for every leader stuck inside a decision they're too close to.

FOR PASTORS: The pressure you feel is the gap between what you know and what you're willing to do. Today's conversation gives you a question that closes the gap.

FOR PASTORS: Most stalled decisions are proximity problems. You know the families, the history, and the cost. Today's conversation shows you how to lead with all of that instead of hiding behind it.

FOR PASTORS: The decision sitting on your desk right now has already been made. You made it internally months ago. Today's conversation is about the five words that will finally get you to act on it.

FOR PASTORS: Every leader I coach has a decision they've already made. They just haven't said it out loud yet. Today's conversation is about why, and what to do about it.

@JeffSmithGolf He broke a rule. Not intentionally perhaps. But a rule nonetheless.

Do we believe that DeChambeau is a decent guy or just a YouTuber presenting as a good guy for followers?

[Dr. Gavin Adams @gavin_adams]

FOR PASTORS: Most debriefs ask whether it worked. A leadership-level debrief also asks what it cost the people who made it work. Today's conversation gives you both questions.

The question is "why" this is true. I pose that pastors/ministers see up close and personal the reality of ministry. It's not just an idea, but a reality. The opposite is true for the average congregant. Like it or not, left-of-center tends to be a bit more loving and empathetic. Not extreme left, but just left of center.

[Ryan Burge 📊 @ryanburge]

The average member of a mainline church is a political moderate.

The average mainline pastor is left of center.

This is an empirical fact.
I will make this point over and over again until it sinks in.

[Dr. Gavin Adams @gavin_adams]

@howertonjosh So long as we don't equate "polite" with love and grace. Let our conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, right? You can be polite and tell the truth.

Legit question... how much money would it take for you to become the face of Depends?

[COACH PRIME @DeionSanders]

#ad Had to check out the new @Depend packaging myself. Now it's your turn to win. Head to https://t.co/bbxD0UuSpP through the end of the month for a chance to win a year's supply of Depend and Walmart+.

FOR PASTORS: Every heroic save is a design flaw wearing a cape. Today's conversation shows you how to spot the flaws hiding inside your wins.

FOR PASTORS: Your last event may have succeeded while the process failed underneath it. Most leaders only count one of those. Today's conversation is about the other scoreboard.

FOR PASTORS: Your manuscript is a security blanket that's holding your focus hostage. The fix is less to track, not more to say. Today's conversation has the move.
