A few weeks ago at The Journey, we had a two-day planning retreat with all of our teaching pastors and our worship pastors from our various campuses.

At the end of the planning session, we walked away with a preaching calendar.

Out of that two days, literally and somewhat surprisingly, we had all the titles for all our series next year and most of the individual titles.

I want to share them with you (more on that below) – but most importantly I want to help you do the same thing.

Why? Three big reasons come immediately to mind:

1) Planning reduces your stress. Most pastors plan week to week, which can easily pin you in a corner if something unexpected comes up. I don’t like the stress of wondering on Thursday, what I’m going to preach on Sunday.

2) It’s very hard to be creative at the last minute. When you give yourself time to plan, you give yourself time to pick up great ideas along the way – and time to implement those ideas at their maximum potential. My worship leader tells me that all the time. He’s like, “I can be very creative in the services, I just can’t do it on Saturday night.” I’ve got to give him time to prepare.

3) A preaching calendar maximizes your impact, especially on Big Days. We all know the pain of regret after a Sunday is over and you look back and you think, “Boy, I could have done this. I should have been able to do that.” Planning allows you to make sure that every Sunday is exactly what it needs to be.

What I’m telling you is, there’s a better way to live, there’s a better way to prepare, there’s a better way to plan.
