A Prayer: Submit Yourself to God
This excerpt is from the series "A Way Out." Many of us are familiar with the phrase "resist the devil and he will flee," but we overlook the sentence that precedes it in James: "Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil and he will flee." Submit to God daily in prayer; when you're submitt...

Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast: Leading Up, Part 1
Thank you for joining the Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast! In this episode, we're going to tackle our listeners' most commonly asked question: "How do I lead when I'm not in charge?" Why is this question so important? Because no organization will ever be what it could be without honest, upward co...

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...

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...

Does the Size of Your Church Matter? (Part 1)
Why do some people go to small churches? Why do others go to large churches? This is certainly an oversimplification, but bear with me. People tend to stay at small churches because they are: 1) Needed. Each week, someone is counting on them to pass out the red attendance folders, vacuum...

Lesson Learned: People Before Policies
In any ministry—especially kid's ministry—there are often too many rules and policies to keep track of, and it's easy to get bogged down by all the procedures. If and when that happens, take stock of your priorities and bring it to God. If the rules and policies are getting in the way of safe, meani...

Don't Wait for Perfection
When launching anything new, most people want it to be perfect. But, opening before it is perfect is often better than waiting for perfection. One of my friends opened a yogurt store before he had signs, pictures, or decorations. Instead of a cool clock on the wall, he put up a piece of paper w...

3 Values that Lead to Evangelism
“How do I inspire my church to be involved in evangelism?” At Alpha, that’s the one question we most often hear from church leaders—and it’s an important one for a couple of reasons. First, if we mobilize our whole congregation to engage with their community, the message of Jesus will find its way...

Church Social Media: Volunteers
What could church social media volunteers do? Churches can be run on volunteers, and at Life.Church, we couldn’t do what we do as a ministry without volunteers. But, how do you use volunteers as part of your social media team? Volunteers can play a variety of roles on your social media team, depen...

He’s mastered shame and trademarked embarrassment. His lies wound, and his accusations sting. He’ll build up your pride just to throw you down. Yes, the devil is strong, but there’s one power he can’t beat—and it’s on your side. Learn how to answer When the Devil Knocks. In this series, we’re going...

Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast: Fire Your Inner Boss
Thank you for joining the Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast! Why do people leave their jobs? The number one reason: they don’t like their bosses. People don’t leave companies—they leave bad bosses! Why? That’s because many bosses don’t understand what it takes to be a leader. Power and influence...

Why Become a Marriage Mentor?
Thriving marriages don't happen by accident, and there are several ways for churches to foster healthy, vibrant relationships. Marriage mentors, for example, can leverage their experience, insight, and wisdom to encourage younger couples to put Christ first and overcome any obstacles. In this brief...

Why Lead a Married Small Group?
Joining a small group is a great opportunity for married couples to grow, learn, and experience life together. But leading a small group can open a couple to a whole new level of blessings and joys. To encourage potential leaders to take the plunge, Dr. Kim Kimberling discusses the importance of mar...

Message Support: "Church Is"
The word “church” holds different meanings, depending on who you ask. And if you ask us, a church isn’t a building. It’s people. Want to know more? Let’s talk this weekend about what Church Is—and what church could be. Rich Wilkerson, Jr., pastor of VOUS Church in Miami, FL and author of Sandcastle...

How to Neighbor: CarePortal
At Life.Church, we believe the local church is the hope of the world. That’s because the church isn’t just a building. The “capital C” Church is all about showing Christ’s love through its people. Scripture specifically calls us to care for orphans and widows (James 1:27). We looked closely at...
