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...

Leadership Podcast: Creating a Value-Driven Culture, Part 1

Is Anyone Listening?
With social media, many people express what’s going on inside their hearts with the same level of transparency as sharing what they had for lunch. “Out too late partying last night = overslept my alarm this morning. Guess I’ll be having ‘car trouble’ again.” “Yay, lunch! It’s burger & fries day!!!...
