This past weekend, Janine and I celebrated 27 years of marriage, no work, no agenda, just us. But a few months ago, that friendship was tested. I said something careless that revealed an old belief I didn’t know was still there.

Have you ever stepped into an assignment and thought, “I have no idea what I’m doing here”? That feeling of being underqualified can make you want to shrink back, try to prove yourself, or wonder whether you heard God correctly. But sometimes the very thing that makes you feel unqualified is what keeps you dependent on Him—and that dependence may be exactly what the assignment requires. Key Tak...

You Don't Have an Employee Problem. You Have a Disciple-Making Problem

You Are Part of This
