Okay, as I am painting the old texture is falling off. Which means I am going to have to texture again. 🤦‍♂️

I made a mess, doubled the estimated time, and am still not happy with my work. I am pretty sure that makes me an official contractor now.

Anyone else blessed with the “I got this” mindset? I decided to retexture a ceiling today after walking by it for many weeks.

Pictures will be shared later … after I successfully clean everything up and make it look right. 😂

Know who you are working with and let them work to their strengths. They won’t last long if they are a encumbered by the wrong expectations.

https://t.co/tzuKek4F65 This lesson will change the way that you lead people. Both racehorses and plow-horses are needed and well-loved.

However, if you try to make a plow-horse race, it will fail miserably. Alternatively, if you try to slow down a race horse to plow, it will fight you because it wants to run.

Dear friends, if you don’t know what to say, just show up. Your butt in the seat is worth more than 1000 words perfectly planned. (2/2)

[Phillip Dow @PhillipDow]

I heard a pastor say, “everyone wants to show up for a wedding, no one wants to show up for a funeral.” I have learned that one of my most profound and impactful parts of ministry is showing up to funerals even if I am not preaching them. (1/2)

Be cautious around people that want to tell you their favorite restaurant, but when asked what they order, it’s vegetarian. This kind is not to be trusted with your taste buds.

Have you ever noticed, those who aren’t doing the work know how the work should be done. Time is short. The Lord is coming back. Give yourself fully to expanding the kingdom of God...lead someone to Jesus this week.

We were not intended to experience the massive flood of emotions that comes from tragic situations around the world constantly.

To serve my community well, I must trust that there are others serving their communities well and praying fervently for them.

Have you ever searched something on Google and been almost positive that you are now being watched by the FBI? 😬 I just needed a source document from the 16th century!

If I disappear, just know it was for research and refutation, not because I believe these things!

Crazy night in Springtown, Texas. Lightning struck a house up the hill from us. The fire trucks were very quick to respond and had it under control very quickly.

To say “yes” to some things is to say “no” to many other things. Often the “yes” costs us more than we anticipated in the short-term, but yields multiple dividends in the long-term.
