  • The Narrative Of An Anti-Hero
    Mar 4 2024

    So, you've been going along quite nicely in your leadership walk and then all of a sudden, BOOM! God asks you to do something. However, you're not keen and it's making you want to run in the other direction! As leaders, we want change, we want to see change, and yes, we want to be the change. And yet, God will send a storm and a whale to change us from the inside out first so that the chaos inside of us develops into peace.

  • Then There Was The Voice Of God
    Dec 25 2023

    We pray and we listen. We position overselves to hear the voice of God. We feel His presence when He speaks to our void, vacant spaces. He takes us on a journey and shares His dreams for our lives. He takes our inadequacy, our loss, our sinful ways, and moulds them into something beautiful and good.

  • Ten Degrees
    Dec 4 2023

    Understand that the vision you carry, the blueprint for seeing your dream come to pass is your prized possession. Sharing this prized possession with the wrong people can sterilize your dream causing you to go off course by ten degrees. Doesn't seem much, however, stroking egos rather than stoking the fires of a dream can lead you into trouble. Just ask king Hezekiah!

  • Unhurried,Uncomplicated,Undone.
    Nov 5 2023

    Where do you need to stop striving and doing things in your own strength?

    Spending some unhurried, uncomplicated time with God causes you to become undone, as those subtle cues He laid out previously that you either ignored or were totally ignorant and unaware of have now become as obvious as an elephant sitting in the corner of a room.

    I know what you're thinking, an unhurried, uncomplicated, undone life?

    Who are you kidding?!

    But Jesus says, "Come to Me, get away with Me, walk with Me, and work with Me, and you'll learn to live freely and lightly."
