Journeys to Significance

Journeys to Significance:
Charting a Leadership Course From the Life of Paul
By Neil Cole (Jossey-Bass)
A 2012 Outreach Resource of the Year

“Journeys to Significance is one of the more interesting books to come along in a long time. Based on the life of the apostle Paul and his journeys, Neil Cole’s book explores the various stages in life a leader has to pass through and how each stage affects the next stage until the leader reaches a point of maturity in which ministry is maximized and contentment with oneself is achieved (unless the leader gives up along the way). There are two reasons to buy this book: one is to read a new and creative interpretation of the life of Paul; the other is to compare the lessons Paul learned on this journeys to how God is working in your own life.” —Bill Easum, from the March/April 2012 issue of Outreach magazine

What Type of Leader Are You?

Spend some time reflecting on your current leadership model by writing down the pluses and minuses of where your leadership stands and see if tweaks could be made to make you a more effective leader.

Does God Still Love You?

We cannot earn more of God's love or lose any of it because His love for us is unconditional. He loves us fully and completely, no matter what we do.

Charlie Dates: The Indestructible Power of the Gospel

Jesus lived 33 years, walking on water as it recognized its creator King and became a solid. He turned water into wine. He welcomed sinners and the marginalized into his company. And then, he died—that is, until death died. Until sin apologized. Until the earth rocked and reeled like a drunken man. Until the sun could no longer stand seeing its own creator crucified to a tree, so it pulled the shade across the noonday. They laid him in a borrowed tomb, but early Sunday morning, before the sun got up, the Son pulled one foot out of eternity, stepped back into time, and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me” (Matt. 28:18).
