    Do You Need to Be Seminary-Trained to be a Spiritual Leader?

    Do You Need to Be Seminary-Trained to be a Spiritual Leader?

    There are a number of ideas that are bantered around so much within our Christian culture that people assume they are unquestioned truth, when they are anything but that.  Here’s one such idea:  Spiritual leaders must be seminary-trained pastors.

    That idea is non-Biblical, serves to hinder the growth of the Kingdom, and discourages thousands of Christians who would otherwise take on leadership roles.  Let’s unpack this.

    Are You Too Busy to....?

    Are You Too Busy to....?

    Good time management recognizes the universal temptation to do more and become ‘too busy. Unfortunately, to continue to try to do “more” is a frustrating strategy that eventually causes great pain:  strained relationships, health problems, a sense of helplessness, less effective work, and, in some cases, emotional and physical burnout.

    Who is to Blame for the Muddle We're In?

    We all know that the country is more divided than at any time in recent memory. It seems like the shared values that have defined the America that used to be a light to the world are no longer in play.  How did we get here?  More importantly, how do we get out of it?  How do we adjust our careers and our businesses to survive and thrive in this muddle? Here’s one person’s opinion.

    Are You Giving Scripturally?

    Are You Giving Scripturally?

    Every Christian understands that there are certain fundamentals of the Christian faith, and that ‘giving’ is one of them.

    And while we have all heard lots of sermons about the need to give, and give generously, very few of us have heard any Biblical teaching on an important aspect of that giving – “To whom should we give?”  And “How should we give it?”  We’re looking more closely at those questions.

    Are You Too Comfortable in The Marketplace to Be Effective in The Kingdom?

    Are You Too Comfortable in The Marketplace to Be Effective in The Kingdom?

    One of Christianity’s greatest failures has been the separation of the church from the world of business and commerce – acting on the premise that there are some things which are secular, and others which are sacred.  Christian companies and their owners and executives must share some of the blame, as they have been comfortable following the worldly approach to business.  As a result, countless millions of people around the world and across generations have never known the touch of God’s love expressed through a relationship with a Christian company.

    Three Misconceptions about Christian Business

    Three Misconceptions about Christian Business

    Most Christians are woefully misinformed when it comes to understanding the role of business people in the Kingdom. They often have misconceptions about what is expected from a Christian in business.  As a result, they compartmentalize business from their Christianity, and rob themselves and those around them of a more fulfilled life.
