Perhaps, the greatest sermon I’ve ever been privileged to witness.

God will ruthlessly frustrate your vision in service of His.

💯 unacceptable. Sinful and abhorrent.

“Every strike of the hammer is meant to secure the nails of the structure; similarly, the preacher's words are meant to secure you more to Christ.” - Thomas Watson, Body of Divinity

The deranged lunatics who busted into a worship gathering of a Gospel-centered local church in Minneapolis today to “protest” put that kind of Romans 1 destructiveness on display, stopping the worship service, screaming at worshipper's, terrifying children. This was not peaceful protest. This was a violation of the right to assemble and worship free of persecution. It was also demonic.

Excited to speak at this conference! Look forward to meeting you there @JCGroves

One of the WORST strategies for developing others: Answer every single question they ask you.

@lukedsimmons I appreciate the balance you’re trying to emphasize. Both are difficult assignments that require different leadership skill sets. I’m not convinced there are “more guys able to plant.” I think more are willing to plant because it appears easier—with fewer barriers to entry—than revitalization. But the percentage of planters who plant successfully is relatively low.

@HonestYPTweets Both are noble. More people are skilled at starting from scratch than at leading the extremely difficult change dynamics that revitalization requires.

Instead of investing in Chuch planting in cities that already have hundreds of churches, why not invest in church revitalization?
