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
Wisdom
Don’t underestimate wisdom. Don’t turn your back on wisdom, for she will protect you.
Love her, and she will guard you. Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do!
And whatever else you do, develop good judgment. If you prize wisdom, she will make you great.
Embrace her, and she will honor you. She will place a lovely wreath on your head;
she will present you with a beautiful crown.”
Watch out for Piranha Fish in Christian Singles Groups
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

I forgot that today. And He had to do something remarkable to remind me He still cares. What an awesome God we have. 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. It wasn’t pretty. But, thankfully, messes don’t have to last. They can become part of our past, if we bring God into the situation. Continue reading
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. But, through my cleansing, much healing and new thinking is being born. It’s like a beautiful meteor shower. All these incredible things just keep whizzing by my brain – and it’s a beautiful light show. Continue reading
Deep Surgery
I have been in pain all week. I’m physically fine – this is an emotional pain that I’m writing about tonight. I certainly feel it, but I couldn’t tell you what it is about until now. I am in surgery. Continue reading
Hooks
Hooks in the Christian world refer to those things that when you are presented (tempted) with them, you behave in a way which just sets you off and causes you to step two steps back. Hooks are your hot buttons. How do you handle yours? Continue reading
