Meaningful and Organized: Baptism Weekends at Life.Church
Baptism is one of the most memorable moments in the life of a believer. They’ve made the decision to follow Christ, and they’re ready to show the world what God has done.

Strategic Disruptions
The longer you do ministry, the easier it becomes to minister from memory. You tend to do what you've always done. It is safe, comfortable, and convenient. To stay spiritually and creatively fresh, I suggest “strategic disruptions.” To me, this is intentionally disrupting the routine, mundane,...

Working Lean: When a Small Staff Is Better
At first, it just doesn't make sense – but it's true. A small staff is often better than a large one. Here at Life.Church, we've found that when a team or campus is slightly overstaffed, progress generally slows down. And when that same team or campus is slightly understaffed, we usually take m...

Letting Go of the Know
When you are in the beginning stages of empowering or developing a leader, you probably want to know a lot and control a lot. You are building trust. Once a leader is trained and functioning well, it’s time to “let go of the know.” Here's an example: Sam Roberts oversees all of our Life.Church...
