Spread the Gospel like Stubble Clover…

by: Brent LacyPosted on: May 13, 2018May 13, 2018

So then neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but God who causes the growth. Now he who plants and he who waters are one; but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor. – 1 Corinthians 3:7-8 ESV  I was part […]

Windmills

by: Brent LacyPosted on: April 19, 2018April 19, 2018

In my workshop at the 2018 RHMA conference, one of the examples I gave for the need to network for ministry in your community is a windmill field. These things seem to be everywhere that it’s flat for more than 50 acres in the Midwest. If you drive across I-74 […]

10 Church Safety Questions You Should Be Asking…

by: Brent LacyPosted on: September 26, 2017

In light of all the news surrounding the church shooting in Tennessee this weekend, there are some questions that those of us in church leadership should be asking ourselves.

Transitional Assistance…

by: Brent LacyPosted on: August 22, 2017

So a former southern baptist youth pastor who works for a non-denominational parachurch ministry walks into a Quaker Church… This is not the lead up to a really great “preacher joke”, this is life right now, and truth is sometimes stranger than fiction. When you follow God’s call, you don’t […]

Five Ways to Welcome New Church Staff to Your Community… A How-to guide.

by: Brent LacyPosted on: May 9, 2017

If you live in a community of any size, there is a decent probability that one of the churches will have hired new or replacement staff members. Uprooting and moving a family two miles or two thousand miles is a big deal. How can the believers in your local community […]

Remembering Columbine… Never Again.

by: Brent LacyPosted on: April 20, 2017April 22, 2017

On April 20, 1999. Things changed. Not everyone that day knew just exactly how wide ranging those changes would be, but there was a huge cultural shift. The school shooting at Columbine High School in Colorado was one of stories that helped to  form our current 24 hour news cycle. […]

The 600th post…

by: Brent LacyPosted on: April 11, 2017April 22, 2017

In 2007 and early 2008, I had a crazy idea to start a ministry blog. I never imagined it would lead me through two different churches, seeing the addition of two more children to my family, through writing a book, and speaking and traveling all over the country as part […]

Don’t be a “Bath and Body Works” Youthworker…

by: Brent LacyPosted on: September 15, 2015

Note to our female readers: This post is written by a male. We see things a little differently, and that’s ok. Hang with me, this satire makes a point…  When I hear the words “Bath and Body Works” as  a guy, two things come to mind. 1) The migraine-inducing mix […]

Indiana RFRA and #boycottindiana – A view from someone who lives there…

by: Brent LacyPosted on: April 1, 2015

As a resident of the state of Indana, I am sad. Not because a law was passed, but for the reactions of people we call fellow Americans. I am of the opinion that when there is a problem, that there can be an open and honest discussion, without all the […]

The Truth about Fifty Shades of Grey…

by: Wayne YeagerPosted on: February 14, 2015February 12, 2015

This post originally appeared on the Author’s Personal Blog… A few years ago at a church sponsored event, I noticed several young ladies and women who had distanced themselves from the crowd.  While most of the people stayed in a rather central location and talked, these women, ranging from age […]
