It’s Not a Contest
Don’t be threatened by someone else’s talents, gifts, or abilities. There is a downfall that often plagues people in leadership: other people’s successes. I’ve met plenty of people who are threatened by another person’s success in their same field of work. Pastors can be… Continue Reading “It’s Not a Contest”
Best. Valentine. Ever.
It’s that time of year again…when every store is decorating in red and pink hearts. Chocolate screams at you from every corner and the card section makes your eyes bug out of their sockets with an over-attention to a certain color palette. I have… Continue Reading “Best. Valentine. Ever.”
