Love these 7 common traits the giants of our faith possess by @cnieuwhof.

[Carey Nieuwhof @cnieuwhof]

In an age of striving celebrity and instant internet fame, never forget that purpose can give you a platform, but platform will never give you a purpose. On losing Eugene Peterson and so many other giants: https://t.co/7QQLdVHk2v

@MichaelPechar @marcuslemonis @CampingWorld That's amazing! Congratulations. Best thing we did with our family while kids were young = camping!

[Mark Riggins @markriggins]

@dankimball I'd love to hear your sermon, Dan. Accessible somewhere?

[Mark Riggins @markriggins]

@markpatt @Cisco Congratulations Mark!

[Mark Riggins @markriggins]

One of my favorite @cnieuwhof episodes. @johnortberg breaks down the divide between leadership & spiritual formation. Thank you Carey & John! https://t.co/exVNPRlAZr

@MichaelPechar Haha! Every time a cowbell rings in church, another southern angel gets its wings.

@gavin_adams I bought it @gavin_adams and already reading it. I keep thinking, "Where has this book been for the past few years?" 😂 So insightful and practical. Thanks Gavin.

@lukedsimmons These questions are great, Luke! I'm curious about your strategy for question #1. Why have the pathway for a 1st-time guest land at a "committed volunteer" vs a small group?

[Mark Riggins @markriggins]

@MichaelPechar Ha! I guess this means update + message . . . still out on "time." 🤔 😆

[Mark Riggins @markriggins]

@pastorjeremyd @gavin_adams It's a humbling thing to walk with families. It's an honor, isn't it? Blessings on your ministry my friend.

[Mark Riggins @markriggins]

@lukedsimmons Gotcha. Our team has been wrestling with this & we believe Sunday am service fosters a level 2 relationship. We're organizing block parties & all-church social events that we believe are level 1-2 while we simultaneously double down on small groups that we believe are level 3.

[Mark Riggins @markriggins]

@lukedsimmons Agree completely. As a ministry, how are you fostering #1-2?

[Mark Riggins @markriggins]

@MattBeard @lukedsimmons "Organizing angle" = love that phraseology. I often called it the "through thread" tying the sermon together. Often emerges unexpectedly like a whale from beneath the ocean: unmistakable. 🐋

@steveryancarter Thanks, Steve. Oddly, though we don't know each other, I immediately felt a connection to you after reading this post. My Dad died 9 yrs ago. I still feel the void (sometimes a tinge of guilt for "moving on"). I enjoy telling ppl about him in honoring ways & stories to my kids.

There’s of course more to this story, and I hope you’ll read it, and enjoy the beautiful photos by Jesse Barber. Here’s a no-paywall link to my reporting from Wilmore: https://t.co/pkHoYN9D9l
