Pastor, Saturday may be the 2nd most important day of your week. Rest, relax, spend time with the family, have some fun. Then review your sermon, pray and prepare for the spiritual battle that comes in the morning. Tonight, rest in the assurance the Father will give the victory!!

God can do more with your surrender than you can do with your control.

God often calls us to wait for His promises. Noah - 120 yrs for promised rain Abraham - 25 yrs for the promised son Joseph - 22 yrs for the promised dream Simeon - his whole life for promised Messiah What promise are you trusting God for? He may seem slow, but He's faithful

Spent two hours over coffee this morning with my youth pastor. Baptized me. Officiated my wedding. I love him and his example was pivotal for my own faith. I always wanted to be like him. Youth pastors: Your ministry may be one that takes awhile to bear fruit, but stay faithful!

Disciple = shape, teach, form Don’t let the world disciple you. Don’t let CNN disciple you. Don’t let Fox News disciple you. Don’t let a political party disciple you. Don’t let Facebook disciple you. Let the Bible disciple you. Let the Holy Spirit disciple you.

Stubbornly clinging to the past makes thriving in the future a lot harder. I know it's hard, but embracing change is the way forward: bit.ly/3g5lSWG

Did you catch yesterday's NEW POST? careynieuwhof.com/new-exodus-4-r…

most church services that you’re avoiding this weekend... took more precautions preparing for your safety, than the stores, restaurants, or parties that you didn’t avoid this week.

FYI Duke and NC State lost today. 😂

If the church is going to reach its potential, change isn't optional. It's inevitable.

Congrats to Coach Williams and Carolina Basketball on a great win. Good luck in the ACC Tournament this week.

PASTORS IN A PANDEMIC {A thread} Everyone has had a truly difficult year and the past 12 months have been brutal, refining and unpredictable. From my perspective, I’ve seen how it’s affected pastors emotionally, mentally and professionally.

Every leader needs someone who believes in them when they've stopped believing in themselves. careynieuwhof.com/29-of-pastors-… via Carey Nieuwhof

The Colts made a statement today in Buffalo. An emotional win for head coach Frank Reich, who began his postgame press conference with this powerful message ⬇️ #Colts | @WISH_TV

Many times the church gets stuck because the WAY we do church becomes more important than WHY we do church.
