If you're anything like me, then the chances are that you've had your fair share of struggles as a leader. These obstacles can be frustrating but in reality, aren't so much an issue to overcome rather than the everyday bumps in our careers and personal lives; this is what I write about on my blog.

Michael Jackson, one of the most widely beloved entertainers and profoundly influential artists of all-time, leaves an indelible imprint on popular music and culture. He is the King of Pop and we'll forever remember you! THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES & MUSIC MICHAEL!...
I often hear pastors and church leaders say: "Leading a church would be great if it weren't for church people." That may or may not be true, but, there is no such thing as leadership void of people. The challenge most church leaders face is that we're pulled in so...
