Leading New Believers Through Tithing
At Life.Church, we like to say we will do anything short of sin to reach people for Christ.

As a result of being really focused about reaching the lost, we often have a lot of visitor...

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.

Leading the Way with Small Groups
“Church” is much more than a weekly experience. Being the "capital “C” Church includes serving, giving, and engaging with God and others. A healthy, thriving, small group ministry is a necessary component to Christian community, but can be difficult to build effectively. At Life.Church, we enco...

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,...

Personal Generosity
Several pastors have complained to me that most people in their churches are not generous. I’m guessing that the churches are a reflection of its leaders. If our ministries aren’t generous, it is probably because we aren’t either. Several years ago, God started moving our family toward a much m...

Fasting From Church Stuff
For years I tried to learn from and be like other ministers. I listened to messages, attended conferences, and devoured every Christian book I could. Each time I met a new leader, I tried to become more like them. A few years ago though, God led me to do something very different. (I'm not neces...

Message Support: "This Is What We Do"
Do you do "this?" This opens doors and solves problems. This inspires others to do this, too—it’s the good kind of contagious. When they tell our life stories, we want them to put this at the top.

While uneducated or cruel critics can be distracting, try to keep things in perspective. Where I live, Christians are rarely in danger for being Christians. Countless believers have suffered gravely for their faith in Christ. If all we have to do is endure a few people complaining, blogging, or wr...
