10 Questions with Leader Dave Ferguson – Community Christian Church

By Christians, Church, Church Planting, Interviews, Leadership

Dave Ferguson is a pastor and mentor to hundreds of church planters around the globe, including me. His church, Community Christian Church, is a pioneer in the multi-site movement. Dave is an influencer, a teacher, and a visionary leader. I appreciate his responsiveness to those of us that desire to learn from him. I also appreciate his commitment to his family. The one meeting I had schedule with him had to be canceled because of a school program for one of his children. I admired that in him. He has befriended my son in Chicago.

By Encouragement, Family, Marriage

You Are Never Too Old To Learn Something New

By Change, Leadership

One of my pet peeves as a leader has been for people to refuse to try something new or fail to follow through on a project, giving up before it’s completed, because they think they do not feel they know how to do the task. I encounter far too many people that want responsibility or leadership assignments, but they are not willing to invest the time and energy it takes to learn the requirements of the task.

I consider Jenni Catron a friend and ministry partner. Jenni serves as the Executive Director at Crosspoint Church in Nashville.

I love the transparency she shares through her blog and the intentionality she brings to her ministry. I am fully convinced that much of the success of Crosspoint is due to Jenni’s leadership. You can follow Jenni on Twitter also.

7 Things Your Wife Is Not

By Family, Marriage

Many men are relationally challenged. It’s not that we don’t want to have great marriages, but we are often weak when it comes to knowing how to build them. Often the problem is that we have the wrong ideas about the role each of us is to play in the marriage and it affects how we treat them. Men, see if any of these fit for how you’ve been relating to your wife.
