You Gotta Start Somewhere

You gotta start somewhere.

For me, it was hiring a local videographer, buying (expensive!) television airtime, and taking a big huge, scary leap of faith!

 

God loves creating beauty out of ashes and healthy fruit out of tiny seeds:

"Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin..." (Zechariah 4:10)

6 years ago today we started airing this tv ad, trying to create momentum for monthly preview services -- the beginnings of Life Church Michigan.

It worked.

Today we are a healthy, thriving, fast-growing movement of changed lives and about to launch our 3rd campus in the Great Lakes Bay Region (still blows me away!).

My advice?

Never give up.

Never, never, never, NEVER give up on your dream.

Ignore the haters
(the loudest boos always come from the cheapest seats!).

If God has called you to it, He will see you through it!

NEW Fearless Leadership Podcast

I love pouring into church leaders and church planters.  

When a leader gets better, everyone gets better and Heaven becomes more crowded as a result!

I'm passionate about doing whatever it takes to reach more people far from God and I want to help as many leaders as I can in that mission.

So, we're going to launch a new venture into the podcasting landscape...

My new Fearless Leadership podcast launches this Tuesday!

Fearless Leadership will focus on how to shatter your growth barriers by sharing practical church leadership tips from the worlds of improv-comedy and church planting. 

My first guest is an alum of Saturday Night Live sharing great insights from the world of comedy for leaders!

Thanks everyone for your support -- the best is yet to come!
