Multi-Tasking Danger Zone
One of the characteristics of a gifted servant leader is putting others in front of you. You may be thinking- check that box- I do that! I am humble. I always put others ahead of myself. I have a servants heart. I’m all over this! Let me give you an area in putting others first…

Stuck in the Mud?
My son and I love offshore fishing. We have had some really memorable fishing trips that will always be special to me. One of the components to bottom fishing offshore is dealing with the anchor. At the end of a long day fishing, there is a real tendency to get to the wheel first so that you…

David leads a ministry called Rough Cut Men (www.roughcutmen.org) that focuses on getting men to begin engaging with one another in an authentic and transparent way.

K-LOVE: Girls Give Up Their Dreams
I listened to a discussion this morning on the radio that was really troubling. The K-LOVE morning show was discussing a statistic regarding young women. According to a newpaper article that they referenced, 6 out of 10 girls give up the thing they love to do because of the way they look. Really, not the way…

Warm Bread: Irresistable!
Back in the early 90s, Kathy and I particularily enjoyed a restaurant that had an appetizer specialty called teacup bread. The bread would arrive warm and still nested inside of a teacup. This was a really special treat. The bread was light and soft and had a sweet flavor. You really could eat this bread for…

Natural Goodness
Every July 4th we would travel as a family to Frankfort, Michigan to enjoy the festivities. Frankfort is an idyllic northern Michigan town located on the shores of Lake Michigan (OK- look at your left hand and it is located just below the end of your pinky finger- this is mapping Michigan style!). The 4th…

Simply Beautiful
I am an avid gardener. I love to grow just about anything. I tell folks that I am really a farmer trapped in a carpenter’s body! I particularly love growing two flowers– roses and dahlias. Now these flowers are a real challenge in North Florida. Roses are susceptible to disease from the excessive moisture. It’s a constant battle…

What your husband wants for Father’s Day!
Tis the season for new barbeque grills, golf balls and fishing poles! So what do you have planned for Father’s Day? Some men are kind of tough to buy for, but most guys are pretty open about what they like. Although this celebration is really about the kids getting their Dad something special, what do…

Empty Cathedrals
I have been watching a mega church construction project while commuting to and from work. This is a really impressive project- super big building and giant size parking lot. It really looks like a high school campus more than a church project. I have heard that it cost 10 million dollars, which I think would…

The Key
When I was a very young man I was convinced that knowledge was the key to success. I was sure that it was “what you know” that was really important. So, I worked very hard in school. I really felt like learning was the key. If I could just learn as much as possible and…
What is Leading By Serving?
We are all leaders. We lead families, friends, workmates, and we lead by example. Leadership is not about position. A leader seizes the opportunity to make a difference. They lead from where they are. In this space, I share stories and life lessons on grabbing hold of these opportunities. Making an impact. Changing the world.
I believe that… Leadership is for Everyone!
