Just because it is so funny …
This was a video we did a while ago for a relationship series.
My favorite line: “Trapped by a clinger.”
Ever been burned? Or trapped? Let’s hear it! I’ll tell one of my burns later today. So check back for that! 
Lasagna & Leadership
I had a great time at my lunch for Pastor’s wives and women in Leadership at Catalyst that Lucretia Noble and I hosted. The only bummer was that I wish it had been twice as long so I could have been able to visit with more people because I’m a talker … but I was so glad for the opportunity! We had over 40 people join us. Awesome ladies!
Thankfully someone Tweeted this picture of us during our Q&A time. I wasn’t able to get through near all of the questions, so I thought I would slowly start going through them here.
This is my favorite one: How do you maneuver being Jud’s eye candy?
It is a tough job … but someone’s got to do it! That’s hilarious! But most of the leaders I know are smart enough to have married up. For instance I love Jud’s best friend, Mike Foster, but Mike would totally agree with me that his wife Jen is totally amazing! And our friend Tommy who is the Sr Pastor at Hillside Christian Church married a stinking powerhouse when he married Donna. I have tons of other examples too.
I should also say, that I completely understand that most people will not know me outside of my role or my face. Most of the time that doesn’t bother me, because I make sure to have some people that really KNOW me outside of all of that. It helps me keep a little balance.
So, ladies, how do you handle it? And guys, brag on your ladies! You know you couldn’t do it without them!
Book Discussion Approaching
We’re getting ready to discuss that book … yep, that one right over there. That’s the one. “These is My Words.” Discussion will start up on Friday. Make sure to check back often to comment and comment about other comments. Should be fun!
Between Catalyst and Easter, I didn’t get finished with the book. But my best friend, Tiff, has agreed to lead the discussion. I heard the book is awesome, so I look forward to getting to read it.
And if you are in my book club that meets here in Vegas, don’t panic. Lisa is going to lead your discussion at the two42 on Thursday.
Only In … California
I’ve talked a bit about crazy things that are “Only in Vegas” here and here. But while we were in California last week, I had the best “Only in California” moment.
The people of California are flat out sue happy. So there are always all kinds of weird warning signs around. This was the sign greeting us at the door to our hotel:
This did not in any way, shape, or form make me feel good about staying there.
“Welcome to our hotel where you might get cancer or have birth defects. Hope you enjoy your stay.”
That is just the stinkin’ craziest thing! I’m sure there all kinds of deep thought that could apply to our churches there … but my brain is still fried from Catalyst. So, instead I’d rather hear your thoughts.

You Can Do This
“The size of the vision God will give me is directly related to the amount of pain and discomfort I am willing to endure.”
The reason we are going through pain is so we can understand His provision.
1. Trust Him: “The hand of the Lord brought me to dryness.”
2. Believe Him: “We need to feel like God feels so that we can begin to follow what God calls us to do.”
Why do we not buy into God’s provision:
- fear: Why would we run from the vision of God? Because we do not understand the power that He has put in us.
- laziness
- obsessed with discovery, not development. When you get obsessed with God developing you instead of people discovering you, you are ready for the next level.
“Leadership is as easy as listening to God.”
“What you be willing to attempt for God if you knew you could not fail? Then you are a coward if you don’t.”
“You can’t plan for a move of God. But you can prepare for it.”
3. Honor Him: Finish what you started. “Don’t you dare give up on the God who has never given up on you.”
