November 26, 2009
In my role as Executive Pastor, one of the things I can never avoid is doing the budget for the church each year. That’s right! Along about October/November the budget is due to the eldership, and it takes a bunch of work to get it together. I thought this year I would share the process and [...]

November 7, 2009
As you know, I am Executive Pastor of Christ’s Church of the Valley here in the suburbs of Philadelphia.

September 8, 2009
Since the beginning here at CCV, we’ve encouraged our staff to “put themselves out there!” We believe, beyond our own church, we are called to be a resource in our region … the northeast. So, our staff is encouraged to network with other independent Christian churches, making themselves available to share ideas and otherwise be [...]

June 19, 2009
I’m reading a new book … A Sense of Urgency by John Kotter. So far so good, but the jury is still out.
