A talk about being a leader in the workplace.

I heard a great discussion today about a book “Jesus in the courtroom” by John Mauck.

The book, and the conversation, highlight how we ALL can be leaders in our places of work, and communities by living out our values as exemplified by Jesus Christ.  This is a 50 minute pod-cast, but the discussion starts around time marker 23:40. Take a listen, and let me know what you think.

As I ponder the question of “how does that apply to me today”, that still small voice speaks…

We have many earthly ‘enemies’, but our enemies are usually more mundane things like obstacles & challenges. At home it may be our physical limitations like asthma, allergies, out-of-shape or an actual handicap. At work it may be a tough job market, rusty skill set, a lack of confidence or a need for training. I know for myself, professionally I am struggling with learning how to market my business(es) … Click to Continue

March Update: Marketing, Fundraising and Fellowship

Yes, it is both sad and true. It has been over 3 months since my last post and by my count almost 6 since I posted anything of substance.

So what does that mean for my 5 whole full-time readers? – Well, in a nutshell, I suck…What it really means, other than that, is that I have been in some SERIOUS transition.

I had a hard time separating my personal goals from the company goals. This is good and fine if all … Click to Continue
