Latest writing
- Change, Crisis, and Hard SeasonsYou're Quoting That Verse Too FastThe verse about God working for the good is true, but quoted too fast it can close a door. It's a promise about a Person who's with you, not a formula that makes pain secretly pleasant.
- Fear, Anxiety, and UncertaintyYour Team Is Waiting to Hear What It MeansWhat happened is one thing, and what it means is another. Caleb and Joshua looked at the same giants as the other ten spies and weighed them against the fact that God was with them.
- Rest, Sabbath, and RenewalHungry at Midnight, and Nothing's BrokenNobody warned you that a win could leave you emptier than a miss. Jesus never shamed anyone for being hungry. He said, "I am the bread of life," and the invitation is to come.
- Overwhelm, Burnout, and LimitsIs It Possible to Work Hard Without Burning Out?Every honest leader wants the same two things at once: to work hard and to still be standing in ten years. Most advice makes you choose. Scripture does not.
- Change, Crisis, and Hard SeasonsWhen You've Lost Passion for the Business You BuiltYou built it. You still run it. And somewhere along the way the fire went out, and you have not told anyone because the people who depend on you cannot afford for you to say it out loud.
- Personal GrowthCan Passion Be Learned, or Are You Born With It?Some leaders seem to run hot by default. If that is not you, the honest question underneath is whether you are missing a wiring you were supposed to be born with.
