@AndyRowell @cnieuwhof Thanks Andy. For the word "evil" I borrowed the definition from Henry Cloud. People who exist to tear you down, and truth can't dissuade them from their actions.

@cnieuwhof @timastevens The only dissonant part was when Tim called some undermining staff "evil" and also bloggers "evil" because both "wanted Willow Creek to fail." I don't think "evil" is the right word here. There was great constructive conversation later about working through "trust" and "hurt." 👍

@markdeymaz I totally agree. Prior to 2020, Willow had never had a person of color on the highest leadership team. When I left, 20% of our exec team, and 50% of our campus pastors were POC.

@timastevens Read your article re Willow’s resurgence: Great to hear! One thing: Healthy diversity is not so much measured by % of Sunday attendance as it is by that of diverse leaders occupying the highest positions of responsible authority, and more: See mosaix.info/start-here

Gone are the days of top-down leadership. Emerging is the humble, authentic, appropriately transparent, collaborative leader. - @timastevens

If you have a superstar who is making life miserable for everyone else, you have a problem on your hands, and it is eating away at the very soul of your organization. You don’t know it, but you are losing your best leaders. leadingsmart.com/blog/2023/9/cu…

Pastors aren't unique in facing temptation, but there are 4 traps they are susceptible to: 1) Pride, 2) Refusing to Listen, 3) Avoiding Accountability, and 4) Believing the Rules Don't Apply. More at leadingsmart.com/blog/2023/8/pa…

@LetsReword Looking at your pricing levels. Two questions: What is a "project" in Reword (it says limited to 3 for grow level), and secondly, do you have a SquareSpace integration?

Are you mystified how to approach Generation Z & worried about their low attendance in church post-COVID? Let me introduce you to Faith Schiller & @HannahGronowski, two leaders who taught me so much about understanding the majority of today’s young adults. leadingsmart.com/home-1/gen-z-a…

How do we champion and empower women in church leadership? @kadicole, leadership development expert and author, has written multiple books addressing this and other questions about female leadership. I asked her what she has learned in a recent interview: leadingsmart.com/home-1/how-do-…

Horrible experience w/ @Hertz; rented van 2 wks ago only to learn location has been closed for 1 month; spent 90 min on phone & they will do nothing except rent me smaller vehicle for $3,400 MORE than my reservation. I've rented 250+ times and am President's Circle. Trip ruined.
