Rediscovering the True Origins of Kingdom Multiplication

Many of us have bought the misconception that multiplication is simply organizational in nature. This lie gains traction as we consistently talk and strategize about multiplying campuses and churches, but this misconception ends up stifling growth and kingdom impact. So let’s be clear, kingdom multiplication always starts with individual Christ followers. As a Christ follower, […]

5 Signs Alignment Needs to Be Your #1 Priority in 2023

On September 12, 1962, President John F. Kennedy stood at Rice Stadium in Houston, Texas, and declared, “We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.” This speech famously launched America on its journey to the moon, culminating with […]

6 Ways to Make Your Christmas Season Feel Less Frazzled

Comparing Numbers

3 Uses for Good Metrics

Since the 1970s, my beloved Pittsburgh Steelers have won six Super Bowls.

In fact, this one area scores the lowest in our Church Activation Assessment when leaders assess themselves on how they are doing in activating the Great Commission. So, we’re back again this time with another look at church metrics. Our last post acknowledged that church leaders […]

4 Principles for a Healthy View on Church Numbers

Church leaders have a strange relationship with numbers.  Maybe it’s because our formal education didn’t emphasize it much.  Perhaps it’s because we have read the numbers in Exodus too many times and the cubits fried our numerical circuitry.  Maybe it’s because our church boards consist of business leaders who are super comfortable with numbers.  Whatever […]

5 Questions to Ask When You Hear “Our Vision is Not Clear!”

This week, another driver ran a red light and crashed into my car. My mind immediately jumped to worst case scenarios: “My insurance rates are going to skyrocket. There may be a lawsuit. Murphy’s law is attacking me again.” In this age of anxiety, it is natural to expect the worst case scenario to be […]

Learnings from Christ’s Church of Flagstaff

Learnings from Christ’s Church of Flagstaff It has been two years since we installed a Lap One Intentional Growth Plan (IGP) at Christ’s Church of Flagstaff (CCoF). In a community not open to the gospel, we are blown away by the massive headway their team has made with Great Commission impact!  Attendance has climbed around […]
