		<title>Crucify Him</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
You ever notice how many Christians are quick to attack others when it means keeping their ideological opinions &#8220;right&#8221;? 
And sadly, with social media I believe this problem has taken a whole new level. It doesn&#8217;t take a leadership position to be able to speak into a crowd of people with various opinions anymore, it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Giving It Up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[All of us have luxuries that we are used to living with. Some of us have more than others, but considering shelter and food are the only tangible &#8220;things&#8221; we really need, there is a lot that we have that is extra stuff.
What is the one tangible thing you could most easily give up?

		<title>Fortuitous Bouncing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For those of you new to this blog, every Saturday I write up a short post including links to some of the best blog posts I read and some of the most interesting news I found.
Blogging is a funny thing. Sometimes I write posts that I think a lot of people will resonate with and [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8216;Tis the Season</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Let the Madness begin.
This is easily one of my favorite times of the year. The weather is finally getting better. Baseball season is close. I can begin thinking about golfing again. And March Madness is upon us.
Each of the last few years I&#8217;ve set up a Tournament Pick &#8216;Em league on Yahoo Sports. This year [...]]]></description>

		<title>If You Aren&#8217;t Changing, You&#8217;re Falling Behind</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
During my undergrad studies I took numerous management classes and often our class discussions would be centered around the importance of being flexible and nimble in business. We would go through numerous case studies of businesses that were once at the top of their industry, and after 10 years of remaining stagnant (without change in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Changing Church Logos</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lisa Smith (known to many of you as &#8220;Stretch Mark Mama&#8221;) wrote a comment on this post from a couple weeks ago, and what she said has stuck with me since then. Here is the last part of her comment:
&#8220;Growing a church the organic, one-convert-at-a-time way is tough and requires a well thought out (prayed [...]]]></description>

		<title>Weakness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Put yourself in a leadership position for an extended period and it won&#8217;t take long to figure out where your weaknesses are.
That is a lesson I have learned since going from part time to full time at my church and taking on a lot on more responsibility.
I&#8217;ve found that I struggle to be confrontational in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fortuitous Bouncing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I watched The Hurt Locker last night, mostly because it is nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars on Sunday. It is quite sad how few of the movies nominated for Best Picture I have seen. I guess I was trying to make up that a little. All in all, a solid movie. Seemed to [...]]]></description>

		<title>A New Expression of Worship</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
In many ways our &#8220;modern&#8221; form of worship is already becoming outdated.
What do I mean by modern worship? I mean Hillsong United, I mean Chris Tomlin, I mean moving lights and moving backgrounds with lyrics over the top, I mean 4 minute songs, I mean 5 song worship &#8220;sets&#8221; of music. Hopefully you get the [...]]]></description>

		<title>A New Way of Mentoring</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I often wonder if we haven&#8217;t made mentoring something far too difficult for most people.
When most people think of mentoring I believe they think of finding someone younger than them, who needs guidance, meeting with them for serious conversations over a long period of time, until they grow up.
You might say that this picture of [...]]]></description>
