It’s the weekend…finally. Hopefully, you’re enjoying the beginning of summer break with your kids (if you have any). And hopefully, you can grab some coffee and find some quiet to read some great articles that I hope help you as a leader.
Before diving into those, in case you missed them this week. Here are the top 3 posts on my blog this week that I hope you find helpful:
- 11 Ways to Know You’ve Settled for a Mediocre Marriage
- God’s Answer to Our Doubts, Questions & Hurt
- 10 Books Every Christian Leader Should Read This Summer
Also, if you’re looking for a fascinating and helpful book to read this summer, be sure to check out the last one I read: When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing.
Now, onto the posts I enjoyed that I hope will help you:
Rich Birch has some great ideas (as always) on how to help make the summer great in your church and experiment with some new ideas that will help in the fall. The idea of tag team announcements is one that sounded really fun to me.
If you feel stuck in your church or need to figure out how to lead into 2019, Brian Jones has a unique but genius idea on replanting your church in 2019.
Shari Thomas has a great post on what it is like to be a pastor’s wife. I’ve written on this before as well, as it is a complex role to fill. If you’re a pastor, a pastor’s wife or attend a church, I’d encourage you to read her post.
