I Need More Help, I Can’t Do Everything
I Think a Production Coordinator Is a Good Next Step I’ve written multiple times about the need to delegate and how much I struggle with it. I also know I can’t do everything myself, especially if I want to continue growing the coaching and consulting side of the business. This reality really hit me last […]
We Can All Get Better at Fishing
It Just Takes Time and Practice Fishing can be a slow and tedious process. You can spend hours baiting, casting, reeling, and repeating. You can move to different spots and try again, maybe with better results, maybe not. Some things come more naturally to certain people. I was never great at fishing. I think part […]
Firefighting Is Not a Good Way to Prioritize
Try To Minimize the Hot Fires I’ve been really busy over the past several weeks with holidays, getting the Planning Journal for Builders published, and preparing for the BUILD Day workshop that was yesterday. The workshop went well, and I will share more about that later. But for now, I needed to get a blog […]
Life Is Like a Trial
Look At the Lamb of God Evidence and witnesses are important to the outcome of trials. They help confirm what happened. The more evidence there is, the more it confirms that something happened. This is true in our spiritual life as well. It can be hard to believe in things we haven’t seen, or in […]
Planning Backward Can Help You Move Forward
I Know, This Sounds a Little Backward Planning backward makes sense to me, but then again, I’ve been doing this for a while. I like things organized. Some people would say I take organization a little too far. For me, this is about taking control of my business and my life. Planning and decision-making are […]
The King Who Feared a Child
Worldly Kingdoms Come and Go This past Sunday’s message focused on Epiphany. This is a Christian celebration observed on January 6th, twelve days after Christmas. Epiphany is the day the Church recognizes Christ’s manifestation to the Gentiles. The Gentiles were represented by The Magi, whose visit to the child Jesus showed that God’s gift of the Good News is for everyone. Christianity also remembers Jesus’ baptism on this day, when His identity was revealed to mankind. Epiphany, […]
How My Experience Helped Me BUILD My Best Life
It Can Help You Do the Same Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve focused on getting ready for the new year. First, we talked about the importance of having a plan. Then we discussed breaking those goals down into smaller, manageable pieces through prioritization. This week, we’re focusing on something just as important: taking intentional action if you really want things to be different. It’s a lesson I learned, not from theory, but […]
Let’s Have a Word
A Word for the Year Can Help Us Focus For the past couple of years, Pastor Lisa has shared about choosing a Word for the Year. She has given the congregation the opportunity to draw a word randomly from a basket filled with them. I’ve participated in this practice, and I’ve found it to be very beneficial. Pastor Lisa shared that her word for 2025 was healing. At first, she expected it to be physical. She […]
You Need to Prioritize If You Are Going to Accomplish Your Goals
It Comes Down to Making a Choice Last week, we talked about goal setting and planning for the future. This is a big undertaking and can feel overwhelming fast. Where do I start? How do I know what I should do? What makes one thing more important than another? When the to-do list is long, it’s hard to know where to start. Wouldn’t it be nice if someone would just tell you what to […]
Where Can We Find Love?
We Can Find It in A Barn This is the final week of Advent, and this brings us to LOVE. The world teaches us that we need to be worthy to be loved and most don’t deserve it. This is not God’s love. God’s love is the opposite. This is made evident in Luke 2:8-20. The first people the angels told about Jesus’ coming, after Mary […]
