The Curse of the One Man Show (and How to Break It)
I always say that the best leaders never lead, and here’s why; if the best leaders are always in the spotlight, then how are you supposed to raise up other leaders? If you are doing everything with excellence, then what can anyone else do? A lot of leaders hold on tight to the reins of leadership, but holding on to leadership is not a Biblical way to lead (Eph. 4:12). Here are a few practical ways to simultaneously raise up new leaders and ensure you don’t become a one-man-show: Read more 
How to Fail Well as a Leader
Hey microchurch leader, here’s a newsflash; you’re going to fail… probably pretty bad at some point. And the worst part is it is going to be an idea you really thought was going to be amazing. So what do you do in those situations? Embracing the inevitable failure is a good first step, but how you perceive failure and what you do with it is far more important. Here are three quick things that if you know, you can kick failure in the face and come out on top (even though you already blew it):The Early Church Secret
Every living thing on this earth is designed to reproduce. Trees reproduce more trees. Fish reproduce more fish. Humans reproduce more humans. Life gives birth to new life. It reproduces. It multiplies.
As microchurch leaders, we should see this as no different regarding spiritual DNA. Disciples reproduce disciples. Healthy microchurches reproduce other healthy microchurches. Multiplication is the natural by-product of growth and the way DNA is transferred from one generation to the next. Paul puts it like this: Read more
I Have a Dream
No one wants to follow a leader who is going nowhere.
Leaders need to have vision, passion, and conviction. Unction from the Holy Spirit. A resolve to move forward regardless the cost. Those are the leaders worth following. So the question on the table is: what’s your vision for your microchurch? Do you dream about it coming to pass? Would you take a bullet for that dream? Would you follow yourself if you were a member of your microchurch and not the leader? Read more

Leading a Vibrant Discussion
Have you ever had a life-changing topic that has been burning inside of you and as a leader you are about to explode with excitement to share?!? In your head you envision life transformation happening before your eyes as people dialogue and unpack amazing truth and have multiple “ah-ha!” moments and leave thanking you for this amazing evening… but when you throw out that initial question to the room of 8-25 people in your microchurch, the only thing you hear is crickets. Or it ends up being derailed and turned into a dialogue between the two people in the room with the strongest opinions that took the topic way off track.
Let’s never have another night like that… ever. Read more
Invitation to the Supernatural
I’ve always been drawn to see God do something special, dramatic, or downright miraculous in people’s lives. Do you feel this way? We read the life of Jesus and it seemed pretty normal for him. But, then again, it became normal for those men and women who followed him as well. Certainly that’s what we begin to see in the Book of Acts. Read more
The Best Leaders Never Lead
Sounds crazy right? But it’s true: the best leaders never lead. They don’t lead opening prayers at microchurch, they don’t lead worship, they don’t do the Bible studies, or even follow up with all their members throughout the week.
Why is this something we champion? Read more
