      Activate: The Four Fs - Focus

      Thursday, June 5th, 2008

      I want to just list off some ideas they discuss in this section. I’ll try to be organized but I don’t intend to be exhaustive (read the book if you want that ).

      You can never start planning too early.
      You will find yourself in a time crunch if you don’t start planning each [...]

      Weekly Weigh-In

      Monday, June 2nd, 2008

      This week: -3
      Total: -7
      A couple of nights featuring fried fish probably hindered me a bit. But even with that it was a good week overall.

      Sunday Recap (Mother’s Day)

      Sunday, May 18th, 2008

      Last Sunday was a LifeConnection first as I got to teach with my awesome wife.  If you haven’t listened to the audio rush over and grab it because she knocked it out of the park (listen).
      Last week was a weird experience for myself personally.  I don’t know what was going on but I was stressed [...]

      Monday, May 12th, 2008

      Based upon the research found in Stephen Gray’s book, Planting Fast Growing Churches, I ran across a power point version of the research that was extremely encouraging to me and where we’re at a church plant (see also 21 differences in fast growing and struggling plants).
      Criteria for “fast growing”:

      Starbucks Reveal

      Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

      So Starbucks unveiled their surprises today and I am pretty pleased.
      1.  Pike Place roast served every day.  I first had this when I visited Seattle a few years back and I like it a lot.  It’s rich and smooth and without so much acidity - that’s preference I know, but all the acid hurts my [...]

      The Year Memphis Lost

      Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

      First off, heard yesterday that in 1999 when MU interviewed Quin Snyder they had 2 other coaches interview.  Any guess who they were?
      1.  Bill Self
      2.  John Calipari

      Secondly this will always [...]
