Introducing a New Resource

-


I'm excited to announce that I have a new e-book available as a free download on my website. It's called, "Fostering a Positive Ministry Environment: Encouraging Deep Roots Series."

A positive ministry environment doesn’t happen by chance. It is the result of intentional effort from every member. So many leaders forget the importance of creating an environment where team members feel affirmed and valued.
This little book will help you begin to intentionally think about your leadership style and your team and how to foster an environment of growth where team members can thrive.
At the end of each short chapter, I have added questions for reflection. Take time to prayerfully answer them and you can also use them to facilitate discussions with your team.
35 pages
Downloadable e-book
You can find it here:

I also updated my website and added a shop so people can purchase any of my books directly from me rather than have to go through Amazon.

We are on vacation at the moment, but I've been enjoying having uninterrupted time to write each day. I'm thankful that I've been able to combine my many years of ministry with my love of writing and teaching. It's been fun!

Dan and I have also had some really deep and meaningful conversations about life and ministry and our future. These conversations don't always get to happen because we are busy so it's been nice to have a slow-downed pace.

We are headed out on Sunday to have a fun week with Emily and my son-in-law's family and I'm looking forward to that.

When the Unexpected Pops Up

On Thursday afternoon, just as Dan and I were getting ready to leave for a meeting, we received a phone call from our son. He was sitting on the side of the road with a blown engine in his car. The problem is he lives 3 1/2 hours away. After back and forth phone calls he called a tow truck and got it towed to a garage. He ended up renting a car and headed here for the holiday. We've been working with him to figure out his next steps because he still owes thousands of dollars on the car which will also take a significant amount to replace the engine. His rent is going up in the new year. His seasonal job ended and he is trying to find something else, but needs a car for that to happen. His car still has not been looked at by the mechanic. It is all more than a little overwhelming. Long story short, we extended an invitation for him to live here temporarily so he can get out from under all of this. It would save him money on expensive rent and utilities.  The timing was right since h...

Vacation - Week #1

We are on vacation for the next few weeks and have been trying to do a few different things than our normal hiking trips. We love to hike and will still incorporate that into the weeks, but also wanted to do a few fun things that make it actually feel like vacation. We started the week by driving 2 1/2 hours to go to The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Now to be honest, I actually thought I wouldn't enjoy this as much as the guys did. I was wrong. This was 6 floors of exhibits, music, and memories from my growing up years. I loved every minute of this place and it was well worth the money. Dan and Stephen loved "The Garage" which was a floor dedicated to instruments and being able to play them all. They had a studio where you could play with a live band and they jumped right in to play. Of course, they have both played for years so did great. It was so fun! On Tuesday, Dan and I went hiking on a local trail and did a 6 mile hike on a very hot and humid day. I love that there ...
