In 1896, the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church condemned bicycling on Sunday for enticing parishioners away from church and violating the Fourth Commandment: The Sabbath, the Lord’s Day of rest for the body, and of worship for the soul, is especially threatened by many unscriptural in...

Where Do We Grow from Here
No matter the size, age or denomination of our churches, there’s one question we should all be asking. It’s simple yet significant. It applies to your church as a whole, but also individual ministries. It compels you to develop vision and strategy, and keeps you outwardly focused. The answer isn’t...

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...

The Take Back Offering
At Life.Church, one of our values is irrational generosity. But what does it mean to be irrationally generous? If we’re giving something away that goes above and beyond what’s expected, that’s probably a good start. One of the things first-time attenders might be surprised by is something we call t...

How Do You Handle Criticism
One of the most common questions that I’m asked by young pastors is, “How do you handle the critics?” I’ve realized that no matter what a leader does, he or she will be criticized. For example, I’ve been criticized a lot for building the church around my preaching. When I started using more tea...

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...
