My pilgrimage to Cane Ridge, KY
One of the highlights for me was to be able to visit Cane Ridge, what I commonly think of as the birthplace of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). This was a "pilgrimage come true."
Here are some pics of the historic Cane Ridge Meeting House and grounds.

Use these notes as a guide to hear the sermon on the Arise Podcast. Go to www.AriseOrlando.org to access the podcast link.
I like the "LIKE" button
The Facebook "LIKE" button in now on my blog. How cool!
Now, whenever there is a post that you "like," it will share it on your Facebook stream, so that others too may enjoy the post.
Pretty easy, huh?
So..."LIKE" away!
Shared wisdom
Today I spoke with my coach and had a wonderful conversation concerning what's most important in ministry.
He planted a church over 20 years, where he continues to serve today, and shared some wisdom.
He said that as he looks back in all his years of ministry, what's most important is to:
1. Teach the faith;
2. Proclaim the Gospel.
Words of shared wisdom from an experienced church planter.

How do I delegate?
I recently came across on article that spoke on the importance of getting folks at your church involved & active in ministry. As a result, training and equipping people in ministry is very important!
Here is a delegating model that is straight forward and helpful in terms of how to learn/teach/train:
[1] I do it and you watch.
[2] I do it and you do it.
[3] You do it and I watch/assist.
[4] You do it and I'll do something else.
(*Dave Stone's "Four Phases of Ease")
Remember, reproducing leaders should be on your ministerial agenda.
