		<title>The Second Core Spiritual Habit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Those who read my previous post may have been surprised that I suggested scripture reading may be the most transformative spiritual habit. I’m sure there are those who would argue that prayer offers more opportunities for the Spirit’s injection into our lives. However, so long as the average prayer is a monologue, it’s unlikely to [...]]]></description>

		<title>The First Core Spiritual Habit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The first, and typically most transformative spiritual habit, is surprisingly scripture reading. I’m fond of saying “I’m a scientist’s son and a Mainliner at heart,” so when I tell church leaders that if they’ll just start reading scripture regularly their lives will be transformed, they sometimes look at me as if I was from a [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Five Core Spiritual Habits</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Although my book High-Voltage Spirituality is a compendium of forty-eight different spiritual habits (disciplines), in practice I maintain there are five core spiritual habits that provide a foundation for personal maturity and church growth.
And so it was with a mix of horror and relief when I was informed my book High-Voltage Spirituality was going out [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tomorrow&#8217;s Church Today &#8211; Pt. 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[[Continued from "Tomorrow's Church Today - Pt. 1." The first half of this post was first published in the Mar-Apr 2010 issue of Net Results magazine.]
The technology used in the service would have been astounding to see in many churches, and yet nothing being used isn&#8217;t already a part of the culture&#8217;s fabric. Even the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tomorrow&#8217;s Church Today &#8211; Pt. 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[[The following post is from the Editor's Foreward in the Mar-Apr 2010 issue of Net Results, North America's most experienced church growth and evangelism magazine.]
The role of the church is changing. Whether we like it or not, whether we’re ready for it or not, or whether we believe it or not. Back “in the day,” [...]]]></description>

		<title>Church Leaders &#8211; A Contradiction in Terms?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I received a thoughtful note from a Church-Talk listener. He contended that the church has fallen under the spell of the culture&#8217;s understanding and practice of leadership. He went on the say that the church must follow the leadership of the Holy Spirit rather than fallen mortal man. I thought he was pretty perceptive in [...]]]></description>

		<title>The DIY Consultation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[From the beginning of 21st Century Strategies, a long, long time ago, we’ve had one driving value: help transform churches. We suspect that pretty much all our readers understand that one of the ways we do that is by offering professional consultation services, church leadership coaching, and congregational training. What many folks may not realize [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Multi-Site Road Trip</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was invited to check out the newest book by Geoff Surratt, Greg Ligon, and Warren Bird A Multi-Site Church Road Trip (look for its review in Net Results in the March-April 2010 issue). After reading the book, I proffered a question to the authors. The question and the answer is posted below. The authors [...]]]></description>

		<title>Just Because &#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230; I didn&#8217;t know where else to put this, here&#8217;s a short video of the light, sound, and decoration&#8217;s display at our home this Christmas. Perhaps sometime I&#8217;ll figure out how to marry the music that&#8217;s playing in the front yard (with many thanks to our tolerant neighbors) to some sort of sound quality. But [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ancient Role Models &#8211; Learning From Those Who Didn&#8217;t Get It Right &#8230; At First</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Acts 1:8. You probably know the passage by heart: &#8220;You will be my witnesses from Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.&#8221; Those words were spoken to the apostles just before Jesus left them in charge.
And of course, we know the rest of the story, don&#8217;t we? Holy [...]]]></description>
