Do you ever feel like you’re carrying more of the ministry than you should…but still not seeing the kind of multiplication you hoped for? Been there. That's why I’m putting together a small 90-day coaching group to help pastors: - get healthy again - simplify their leadership - build a real team - and create momentum toward multiplication This is not a course. This is not theory. This is real-time coaching. If this strikes a chord for you, comment “interested” or DM me. I’m keeping it small.

If ministry feels like a NASCAR race right now… you’re not wrong. Fast. Loud. Constant. After Easter, it’s go-time—more people, more needs, more opportunities.And while that’s exciting… it’s also dangerous. Because if you don’t build pit stops into your rhythm,you won’t just slow down…you’ll crash. Here’s how you know you’re running too long without a stop: * You’re more irritable than usual * Your prayer life has quietly shrunk * You’re reacting more than reflecting * You’re leading… but it feels like it’s on fumes That’s not just a busy season.That’s a warning sign. In Mark 6:31, even Jesus pulled His team away in the middle of momentum to rest.Not after it was all done. Right in the middle of it. Because rest isn’t a reward…it’s a requirement. In this video, I break down 3 simple “pit stops” every leader needs: * Daily * Weekly * Seasonal Nobody plans to burn out.They just stay out one lap too long. If you’re leading in a fast season right now, this one’s for you. Watch it here + tell me: what actually refuels you right now?

Most churches are tracking attendance. Let's focus on fruit instead...

Here's a quick hit on how to maximize your Easter Momentum this week.

It's Easter week and I just sat down for my weekly review. I'm coming out of a very busy weekend - 4 services, a board meeting, a worship night and a vision casting tour. This coming weekend our church is doing 7 Easter services (the most we've ever done). Feels like we've been pushing hard for quite a while. But I got some very good advice from a pastor friend a while back about the week before Easter. He said, "Clear your personal calendar." And for the most part I did. That leaves me with a full day off on Monday, a meeting day on Tuesday, followed by 3 full days with no meetings. I can't even remember the last time that was true in my calendar. But I'm excited about it! That means I can hit Saturday and Sunday FRESH for 7 Easter services. Those 3 days will give me room for prayer-walking (or driving), deep study, family connection, reflection, rest, and planning. It hit me as I was looking ahead: The secret weapon of spiritual leaders isn't productivity or tools or notoriety or any of the stuff you might automatically think of. It's MARGIN used well. I, for one, am going to do my best to use this margin well this week. Can I challenge you - like my friend challenged me - to clear your calendar in every way possible this week? What would that look like for you?
