EASTER IS THE SUPER BOWL OF MINISTRY. IN GOOD WAYS AND NOT-SO GREAT WAYS.

• Listen to old music and sermons and remember what it was like to hear them for the first time.
• Feel permission to let that memory stir up a fresh perspective that gives ministry a reignited approach.

IF MINISTRY IS A BOAT... YOUR TEAM CAN EITHER SAIL OR ROW.

• Sails: Let’s see if this works.

• Rowing: We’re headed in this direction no matter what.

(Patient is not the same as passive.)

***TRUST EARLY TRUST OFTEN.

EASTER COMES EARLY THIS YEAR!

Called Easter.

Let's change the narrative for the better!

(I'm sure Jesus will appreciate it.)

DIFFERENT STYLES REQUIRE DIFFERENT APPROACHES.

- How does your team communicated during the week?

- Are you in need of something to help your structure OR are you needing a structure?

It's not about where you're wanting to go as a team... but realizing what you're doing now... is already taking you somewhere.

Better make sure it's the right direction!

THE NUMBER ONE WORD OF 2023 WAS "AUTHENTIC".

It helps to pay attention to the ripple effects of where people are coming from.

Who knows what the word for this year might be!

THE YEAR IS IN FULL SWING... AND SO CAN BE YOUR INTENTIONS.

People will surprise you.

(In a good way.)

"NOSTALGIA" ISN'T ABOUT A TIME PERIOD. IT'S ABOUT THE FEELING THAT TIME PERIOD GAVE YOU.

There are two versions of "Nostalgia":

1) The kind that evolves.

- Invites you into the feeling so it can expand and grow.

2) The kind that embalms.

- It excludes you from the feeling for the sake of independent experience.

SINCERITY AGES WELL. LET'S CHOOSE IT MORE OFTEN.

What "young people" do today... our grandparents will do 3-5 years from now.

So it might be helpful to realize its less about trends that get results and more about the feelings behind the screens that have the potential to bear fruit.

Let's steer clear of hollow messaging, when we could be full of purpose-defining calls.

IT'S NOT ALWAYS WHAT YOU DO... IT'S ALSO HOW YOU DO IT.

For many of us 2023 was a long and difficult year.

We might not have been treated fairly or given the opportunities to blossom into our potential.

But we're still here.

We're still able to try again with a fresh perspective.

Thank you for everything you weren't told "thank you" for.

It mattered then and it still matters now.

Let's see where a fresh consistency can take us from here!

JANUARY CAN START YOU STRONG OR START YOU BLURRY.

January has everyone excited.

For a little while.

That's where we can approach the month with more realistic expectations that will lead to more fruitful results in ourselves and the things we attempt.

There's nothing magical about a month, but there is something substantial about a unified mindset.

Let's address the conversations that are in our imaginations and see a shift that the rest of our year can feel the momentum from!
