@MoneySavingExp Ordered a MacBook Air from Amazon received a box of kids bedding and books inside the exact all equaling the same weight as the laptop should have been.
@jackskett Agree completely Jack it’s really poor leadership
to give no clarity when clearly he must know what the next step is… people want honesty… just say “it’s under review”
Pastors are not CEOs.
Churches are not corporations.
Members of the community are not investors.
We are shepherds.
We are a new family.
We are a community of servants.
Saturdays’ silence was palpable, weighty, oppressive. I imagine the disciples sitting with each other but absent, lost in their own state of numbness. It was the first Sabbath they observed that lacked joy. It felt like a funeral. Saturday hurt, but Sunday was on the horizon…
If your church seems loud, because it’s full of young people… be sure to praise the Lord for that!
Because, a quiet church with no young people is deafening.
Leadership isn't pretending everything is perfect when it isn’t. It’s about acknowledging reality but choosing to show up anyway because you believe in what could be.
Have the vision. Do the work!
It’s incredibly important to take our children to Church on Sundays.
And, it’s even more important that our kids see us live out on Monday through Saturday - what we said we believed on Sunday.
