Does the Size of Your Church Matter? (Part 4)
I love small businesses. I bought my only television from a local, small business. They delivered it, set it up, and called a week later to see how I liked it. Great service. I decided to get a second television so I could watch football while my kids watched whatever reality show they watch. S...

Questions to Ask If You're a Creative
If you're on a creative team at your church, you'll likely follow a similar process as we do here at Life.Church. • See a need • Come up with ideas • Execute the solution But, if you find yourself constantly in 'execution' mode, ask these questions to help guide the process: do we have a clearly...

Writing, Producing, and Singing: "Breaking the Silence"
Join Life.Church worship leaders for a conversation about creating the new album Breaking the Silence—and the planning, the production, and the purpose of writing new worship songs. As the newest release from Life.Church Worship, "Breaking the Silence" is an electric set of original worship songs...

Breaking Up the Systems
Even a good ministry system will eventually limit what God wants to do if the system doesn’t evolve or totally change. (By system, I mean any program, structure, philosophy, or culture that shapes and helps produce a desired outcome.) Once people operate within a system long enough, they often...

New Seasons Means New People
When a ministry enters a new season, we must open the door for new leaders. The “old guard” often resents new seasons. I’m a big believer in working hard to lead the tenured believers toward new life. Sometimes, though, they refuse to move forward. In those times, we have to help people grow...
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...
Church Online Platform
The Chat Is Where It's At
When you first navigate to a Church Online Platform service (see an example at https://live.life.church/) you see two main components: a video player and a chat window. We sometimes hear, "Why does your Church Online experience have chat…isn't it about watching the sermon?" Church online is ab...

The Code: What Matters Most
The Code. It's what we call our set of core values here at Life.Church. This is different than our statement of faith—it has more to do with focus and perspective. As the church grew and changed over the years, we realized...

Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast: Giving and Receiving Feedback, Part 2
In last month’s episode, we talked about craving useful feedback and three factors that matter when you’re receiving it. This month, let’s talk about three factors that matter when you’re giving feedback. 1.When you give feedback. For some organizations, the most common time for feedback is dur...

Message Support: Developing New Speakers with Team Teaching
Several times a year, Life.Church campus pastors and other staff 'team teach' with Pastor Craig. Team teaching allows you to take the baton from Pastor Craig during a series and create your own portion of the message. It's a great opportunity to flex your teaching muscles or empower a new speaker to...

Worship Team Structure at Life.Church
One of the questions we get here at Life.Church is how we’re able to keep 28 campuses (and counting!) across the country organized and consistent. The truth is that we couldn’t do it without our incredible teams, so we’re very intentional about how we approach team construction. This is especially...

Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast: Principles of Higher Hiring, Part 2
Thank you for joining the Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast! You can have the best product, the best strategy, and the best vision, but without the best people, your organization will always be limited! In last month's episode, we talked about two principles of making great hires. Today, we'll talk...

The Other Side
Romans 8:28 offers the amazing promise of God bringing good out of all situations for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. I’ve watched God bring good on the other side of many difficult times. Today, I’ll talk about the other side of financial trials. One month, out of n...

The Phases of My Faith
When God wants to change my life, he changes my perspective. As He reframes the way I see the world around me, I start to think and act differently. When it comes to my faith, three phases stand out as particularly formative in the continuing journey of becoming who God has created me to be. Phase...

When the Wave Dies Down
Waves come and waves go. When God blesses your ministry with a wave of impact and growth, you’ll be wise not to expect it to last forever. (If it does, you’ll be an exception—not the rule.) If the wave slows, don’t try to recreate it. Those who continue to keep doing what used to work, generall...
