Friday’s List | April 21
Every Friday I post a short list of the things I’m reading, listening to, loving and wrestling with:
Here’s what I’m reading right now:
5 Key Principles Every Leader Should Master by Carey Nieuwhof. Very important read. Read it today.
RECOVERING THE LOST ART OF NOTE TAKING by Michael Hyatt. Very helpful and motivating.
Early Signs Your Church Is Headed for Decline | The Unstuck Church by Tony Morgan. Great thinker. Can’t wait to check out this book.
5 Things Leaders Who Want Respect Should Read And Understand by Brian K. Dodd. Short and sweet, but so powerful.
4 ESSENTIAL DISCIPLINES FOR GETTING THINGS DONE by Michael Hyatt. Another excellent article.
To Change the World: The Irony, Tragedy, & Possibility of Christianity in the Late Modern World by James Davison Hunter. This is not an easy read, but the payoff is very big.
Here’s what I’m listening to:
Scott Belsky—Making Ideas Happen on the EntreLeadership podcast. Author of one of my favorite books, Making Ideas Happen. This a great conversation.
Principles of Higher Hiring, Part 1 by Craig Groeschel. This is such a helpful podcast. I look forward to hearing it every month.
21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership by John Maxwell. I read the hardback years ago. Thought a refresher would be helpful and I was right!
Quotes I’m still wrestling with:
“The most important thing in your life is not what you do; it’s who you become. That’s what you will take into eternity.” Dallas Willard
App I’m using:
I’m committed this year to increasing my effectiveness. Nozbe is a leading productivity app. First heard about it from Michael Hyatt. It’s already making a big difference.
My own post I hope you’re reading:
The Team You’re Building Determines the Size of Your Ministry This is an important aspect of my philosophy of ministry. Sole proprietors don’t get the real job done. It takes a team.
