Transparency Even When It Hurts

I sat in an amazing session last week led by Alex Hamilton (The Redeemer Church) at the Willow Creek Global Leadership Summit. He told us he would be talking about one of the most important issues facing the church – when leaders fall and how you handle it. Well, being a crisis communication executive, my ears certainly perked up. Continue reading

just because someone is involved in a Christian singles group, it does not attest to the fact that he/she is a born-again sold-out Christian. I’ve seen this played out so many times and have seen its destruction that many times. It can be devastating to the person who falls prey (not pray) to this evil behavior. Usually what happens is these people who have motives of landing another (for personal pleasure) is looking for someone who is a bit new in their faith and vulnerable. And like a piranha, these impostors devour their subjects all under the guise of being a Christian. And it makes me so sad. Continue reading

Our Messy Lives

I must admit I’ve caused a few messes myself in life…and not one was fun. They did cause me to grow in character, but ouch. Stuff was thrown all around and other people caught got up in my mess too.

Light of the World

God is teaching me some really rich things at the moment- so personally rich that I can’t explain what he teaching me with mere words.
