The Honest Conversation You've Been Avoiding There's a passage in Romans that reminds us of the human-ness of the apostle Paul. Paul – an apostle, theologian, church planter, someone who had, by any measure, figured a few things out — writes this with disarming honesty: "I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do."  (Romans 7:15) This honest reflection is a powerful example of vulnerability, too. The man who wrote half the New Testa

The Art of Doubling Down on What's Actually Working There's a bias built into most evaluation processes — whether we're reviewing a business quarter or reflecting on a personal season — and it's this: we are far more drawn to what went wrong than to what went right. It makes sense, neurologically. Our brains are wired to flag problems, to scan for threats, to spend disproportionate energy on the gap between where we are and where we want to be.

We've spent March in the gap between principle and practice. Being faithful when your calling doesn't match your calendar. Releasing burdens you were never meant to carry. Reading your dashboard before something breaks in you. Now we close the series with the hardest balance for achievement-oriented leaders: the dance between doing and being. Results matter. Excellence matters. But not at the expense of your soul. So how do you stay productive without sacrificing self-care, s

We have taken the first two weeks of March addressing tension between calling and reality. Week one was about staying faithful when your calendar doesn't match your calling. Week two was about releasing burdens you were never meant to carry. This week, we're getting even more practical on the Principle to Practice series: learning to read your own dashboard before something breaks. I find it interesting and most probably a Holy Spirit intervention that I had to take this pa

Week 2: From Principle to Practice Last week, we tackled the tension of being faithful in a season that doesn't match your calling. This week, we're going deeper into something that keeps leaders stuck, exhausted, and overwhelmed: carrying burdens that were never yours to bear. The stress is real. The overwhelm is suffocating. But here's the truth most leaders don't want to hear: some of what you're carrying, God never asked you to pick up. The Weight You're Carrying Take inv
