Here are some quick hits on things I wanted to cover this week in the blog but didn’t get to:

Bob Franquiz is working with me to start a new Church Planters Coaching Network. Click here to learn more and be added to the wait list.

Terry Mahan, Founding Pastor of The Fathers House Church in Lakeland, FL is teaching my Stewardship Seminar at his place on October 1. Terry is one of my Advanced Coaching Alumni and gets stewardship principles better than anyone I know.  Learn more by clicking here.

I wish I had written this post on Hard Work by Steven Furtick. I don’t know Steven, but my first church was in Charlotte and it sounds like he’s doing a great job.

Kerrick and I are seriously considering a Small Groups Tele-Coaching Network for Lead Pastors and Small Groups pastors. If you are interested, please email Cristina@churchleaderinsights.com. If there’s enough interest, we’ll roll it out.

A HUGE thanks to the CLI family for making Activate #1 on Amazon.com last week. Activate is the new small groups book I wrote with Kerrick.  Who woulda thought it!

For some reason or another, Feedburner changed the feed for my blog. If this blog is no longer in your reader, please add it again (everything has been corrected).  About 700 of the previous 1000 readers have re-added us.  Thank you!

Over 3400 people read this blog each day according to Google Analytics. Wow!  I’m honored to be a part of your week.

Have a great weekend!
