Good Ideas Get Mileage.

I am always jotting things down - ideas, questions, statements, quotes, thoughts, etc.
So, here are several of those not yet shared jots...


God is changing the church, and that, in turn, will change the world. Millions of Christians around the world are aware of an imminent reformation of global proportions. They are saying in effect: Church as we know it is preventing church as God wants it.

Leaders don't congregate to talk about, leaders do.


Can a church look beyond self-preservation to the fact that 3billion people live on less than $2 a day.

Our culture is waiting for a church to put on display and live the way of Jesus.

I have no energy for controversy - I'm looking for the truth.

The term evangelism is destructive because it suggests you should be doing this thing over there.

We are always telling people about Jesus with our action and our inaction.

I get this sense that Jesus is here among us watching quietly what is being done in his name and he is appalled.

You cannot build something beautiful with a sledge hammer.

It's either a journey or its not and if it's a journey the scenery changes.

We are a movement led by amateurs...that's a good thing, amateurs are lovers.

Our Values Determine What We Will Say Yes & No To.

Loving God Is The Greatest Commandment So It Is Our First Priority.

The vacation starts the morning of your first days-off ... the answer to "are we there yet?" is 'yes,' even if you're nowhere-near some "destination" or some "stopping-place" ... i.e. an impatient moment in a long drive is just a sign to start playing road-trip games!
