Resource of the Day: For an example of what this actually looks like in practice, take a look at our Christmas worship experience from this past year. Although it isn’t Easter, the same rules apply. The invitation begins at 34:52 in. If you’d like to see an Easter-specific invitation, here’s the sermon I linked yesterday.

Resource of the Day: If you’d like to see one example of how I’ve given an invitation during an Easter weekend, here’s a link to our Easter worship experience from last year. I start ramping up for the invitation at about 21:08 in. I’ll post a link to another example tomorrow.
I believe that there’s very few things our world needs more desperately today than the restoration of the Biblical virtue of honor. And this is nowhere more true than in the Body of Christ at large. I’m tired of people slinging hate at other churches and pastors, and for the Church being known more for what it stands against than for what it stands for.
So as part of the kickoff to our Honorology series this past weekend, we showed this video as a little message to all the haters in the Body of Christ.
Check it out. And feel free to share it with everyone you know. Let’s spread the message that the time for hate is done and the time for honor has come.
Resource of the Day: For an introduction to honor and the need for it to be restored to our world, check out the sermon from this past weekend: Where is the Honor?
Today we’re wrapping up our three-day interview with Dr. Henry Cloud as we finish discussing the essential practice of pruning from his new book, Necessary Endings.
While the topics we’ve been covering have focused more on business and church management, let me encourage you that I think this practice applies to our personal lives as well. Far too many of us are in danger of missing out on the next thing God has for us because we’re too busy holding onto something long past its season. A relationship. A disappointment. Or any number of other things.
In this final installment Dr. Cloud helps us understand how we can know when it’s time to let something go or stick with it and breathe new life into it. Also, how people with little authority can exert great influence to still produce immediate and lasting change wherever they find themselves.
Resource of the Day: In case you missed it, Monday’s post on the church’s mission to reach those far from God really resonated with a lot of people. In fact, it was our most popular post ever: Fishers of men, not keepers of the aquarium.
