“Skyrocketing college costs in the U.S. are more than just a financial burden; they’re a crisis. With student loans ballooning into a national nightmare, countless graduates find their futures held hostage by debt. We must rethink higher education funding and the necessity for college in the first place.

Ahh… the DMV. The only place where the service is so bad you line up early for it.

You’ll never stop chasing what you think others expect of you.

A little peek behind the curtain: I'd say that of my initial conversations with ministry leaders, 80% come to me because of a problem. "My church is dying!" "Our school enrollment is down." "We just seem stuck." "I'm so stressed out."

That's great; I am happy to help in those situations. Here's the rub - I can also help the 20% who approach me when there is no crisis (actually, I can probably help them more!). I can help when things seem good because even healthy ministries must change. Here are a few reasons why healthy churches need to change and should be proactively planning for it.

1. Blindspots. We all have them. Many healthy ministries are good at what they do, but that success can give you a false sense of security, and you can develop ministry blindspots. Success can gloss over or cause you to ignore issues that should be addressed and not be allowed to snowball into problems.

2. Complacneny. You've heard the phrase, "Good is the enemy of great." It's true. The felt need to change or improve is low when things are good. Ministry complacency is a problem because cruise control doesn't work in ministry. Doing the same things that have worked for a long time and expecting the same results is the definition of ministry insanity.

3. Shifting Demographics. As society changes, so do the people who make up our communities. For example, younger generations often have different beliefs, values, and priorities than their parents and grandparents. If a church fails to recognize and respond to these shifts, it risks becoming irrelevant to younger generations and losing their support.

One way I help both healthy and stuck churches is by doing a REAL DEAL MINISTRY EVALUATION. This simple, budget-friendly process identifies strengths and potential issues that can help your ministry avoid plateauing and decline. Click below to learn how I might be able to help.

It's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of everyday life, but it's important to remember that every decision we make has a ripple effect. That's why it's so important to make intentional choices that align with our goals and values.

So take a moment to reflect on the decisions you've made today. Are they leading you towards the future you want to create for yourself? Are they in line with the story you want to tell?

Remember, your story is unique and completely your own. The decisions you make today will determine the plot, the characters, and the ending. So choose wisely and create a story that you'll be proud to tell for years to come. 📖✨

If you put 100 black ants and 100 red ants in a jar, nothing will happen. But if you shake the jar, they will start killing each other.

Red ants will believe black is the enemy, while black ants believe red is the enemy. But the real enemy is the person who shook the jar.

The same is true with humans - especially Christians who fight other Christians. Before we start fighting each other, we must ask ourselves: Who shook the jar?

Answer: Satan shook the jar.
