Calling or Comfort?
As pastors, it can be hard to know whether we are truly serving where God wants us or if we are just complacent with our position. We sat down with Life.Church Stillwater Campus Pastor Cody Chaloner to discuss how to live into God’s individual calling for each of us....

Fully Devoted: Recording Live or in the Studio
What's the purpose of your project? It's a simple question, but it will help guide the creation of any new asset you're creating for your ministry. When it came to recording "Fully Devoted" to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of Life.Church, we knew that the purpose could be better served by record...
Multi-site
Keeping Experiences Consistent Across Multiple Campuses
We believe that excellence honors God and inspires people. So as a multi-site church with more than 30 physical locations on a weekend, consistency and clarity must be the building blocks of excellence. For the most part, every service at Life.Church flows almost exactly the same at each locati...

Life.Church Core Giving and Generosity Beliefs
Core Beliefs The following are Core Beliefs around giving and generosity at Life.Church. However, we encourage you to prayerfully identify and define your own core beliefs that will govern conversations around generosity at your church. • God owns it all, and He provides everything we need to ac...
Leadership
Good Social Media or a Prideful Heart?
We know God opposes the proud. But some forms of social media seem to have redefined what pride is and what it’s not. For example: Imagine if I stood before our church and repeated things I had heard others say: “Joe Smith said, ‘Pastor Craig, you are the best preacher ever! Your sermons change...
Volunteers
Facebook Live: Finding and Retaining Volunteers
Volunteers are the heart of ministry—when they serve as leaders in our churches, we can accomplish so much more! Join us for this Facebook Live training as Life.Church team members Angie Ward and Brandon Livingood share tools for recruiting volunteers and training them to be all God has called them...
Leadership
Avoid Promises
When God is blessing you with more than you can handle, I’d suggest you avoid making rash promises. I have seen many pastors make promises during times of blessing only to later eat their words (or be bound by a promise they wish they’d never made). ●We’ll never do a fundraiser! ●We’ll ne...
Leadership
Keeping Things in Perspective
While uneducated or cruel critics can be distracting, try to keep things in perspective. Where I live, Christians are rarely in danger for being Christians. Countless believers have suffered gravely for their faith in Christ. If all we have to do is endure a few people complaining, blogging, or wr...
Small Groups
LifeGroups & Small Groups: Know, Feel, Do
Whatever you call them in your church—Bible studies, home groups, LifeGroups, small groups—they are where life happens. We're all designed by God to live in community with each other, and LifeGroups are a great place to plug in with other Christians. As pastors and leaders, we can do a lot to crea...
Leadership
Letting Go of What People Think
Becoming obsessed with what people think about you is the fastest way to forget what God thinks about you. My mom taught me the common truth, “You can’t please everyone.” From my observation, ministers seem to be more vulnerable to people-pleasing than most professions. In reality, we should...
Worship
Original Worship Songs: Writing the Lyrics
When writing a song—or creating anything for your ministry—stay true to the culture and purpose of your church. For us, that means writing songs that incorporate key phrases and principles that are already familiar to our attenders. That familiarity helps them move past the "newness" of the song str...

Message Support: "This Is What We Do"
Do you do "this?" This opens doors and solves problems. This inspires others to do this, too—it’s the good kind of contagious. When they tell our life stories, we want them to put this at the top. We are hardwired for this. This is who we are, and This Is What We Do. "This" is all about the joy of...

The Death of the Five-Year Plan
When I started in ministry two decades ago, everyone I knew was making five-year plans. While thoughtful planning is wise and biblical, I’ve changed how I plan. Instead of planning for specific buildings, campuses, staff roles, and outreach, I plan to be prepared for opportunities that I can’t...
