I'm giving away two tickets to Catalyst One Day Seattle in August...

Catalyst ONE DAY Seattle (August 26th) is a one day Christian leadership event with Andy Stanley & Craig Groeschel. The topic is Momentum: what is it? how do you get it? how do you keep it?

Andy & Craig will be sharing practical strategies and personal examples that have helped them gain momentum in their churches. Also, there will be several sessions of Q&A. It's being pitched as a great opportunity for you/your team to gain some practical insight on creating and sustaining momentum in your organization, especially in light of the current economic crisis.

I've never been to a Catalyst event as it didn't seem especially like "my tribe." But I think I'm going to check this one out since it's so close... AND since they are giving me a ticket!! :) I imagine I won't buy everything I hear... but there's value in listening to voices that come from different perspectives and this is definitely a different perspective. And who knows- maybe I'll come back and want to change EVERYTHING at Evergreen (totally kidding).

Leadership book: ...I think the last one I read was "Leadership Next" by Eddie Gibbs. It wasn't awful, but I don't remember too much that stood out for me. Probably need to read it again.

Most recently read Seth Godin's "Linchpin" and it was good. It's the kind of book where you can get the main idea in the same amount of text it takes to write a blog post, though. So it's an easy one to skim. :D

Just finished reading "Values Driven Leadership" by Aubry Malphurs. Went through it with our board as we put together a Core Values Document for our church. Not the best read, but some great insights and resources.
