Pastors

I learned a lesson recently while driving to work. Light snow fell as I turned onto the church drive, my first meeting set to begin in less than a minute.

Like it or not, most kids follow mom or dad's lead on faith issues.

Leaders should be a positive force that moves with volunteers—listening carefully when they speak, valuing their contributions, and championing their ideas.

In a critical culture, it's good to focus on the good things that are still happening.

Find and keep the right #2 leader.

Alignment is the key to a happy, successful team.

The church attracts many critics, but there are still plenty of signs of health and hope.

So listen to the voices. The right voices.
