Week 19 - Luke Chapter 19

Knights and Ladies,

“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost."
Luke 19:10
Jesus came to find you. Jesus died to save you. Jesus rose from the dead to prepare a place in eternity for you. No matter your background, not matter what you've done, Jesus Christ has come to free you. Don't let anything get in your way of seeing Jesus!

China's Hope

Dr. Peter Zhao Xiao, a Leading Chinese Economist's testimony at the Global Leadership Summit changed my outlook on the social/economic future with the power of Christ.
Confession! : This is going to take a lot of reflection and study to overcome my preconceived notions. But as always, I'm willing to follow the truth, and truth is a person, Jesus Christ. If Christ is in the future of China, then anything is possible!

Help Support Honest Constitutional Candidates in 2010!



They Made It!
At least through this round. It seems many of the signature objections by the Republican party may be fraudulent, but as of now, the Constitution Party is on the ballot!

Leadership Summit 2010


Global Leadership Summit 2010 - Day 2
My key take aways from today. . .
From Jeff Manion: The Desert, a time of loss, depression, wandering. A person could grow and be transformed by trusting in God, or could complain, despair, and die. Go through the wilderness to be forged into closer Christ likeness, or die.
From Terri Kelly: Team member ownership of the vision. Shepherd leaders, leaders by influence not title. Every member a minister, the priesthood of believers!
From Daniel H. Pink: Motivation
  • Biological Drive: have to eat

Leadership Summit 2010


Leadership Summit 2010 - Day 1
Today's take aways. . .
From Bill Hybels: I need to take a leadership inventory.
  • 1. Where, in what roles, am I leading?
  • 2. What are the visions for each?
    Why we can't stay here, and why we want to get there.
  • 3. Who are my teams?
    Knit together teams with the right character, competency, chemistry, culture.
  • 4. What can we celebrate along the way from here to there
  • 5. What has God been whispering to me? (John 10:27)

17 - Luke Chapter 17 - The kingdom of God is not a worldly nation, location, building, institution, or denomination

Knights and Ladies,

"The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation, nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of God is within you."
