In this episode of Creative Drive, I share a story about two speeches given at our Toastmasters club in McKinney, Texas. Both were centered on the same idea: measuring success. But the way they were delivered could not have been more different.

One left people discouraged and hesitant to participate. The other reminded people that growth happens one percent at a time and that true success is measured by people, not checkboxes. The result was immediate. Members who had been quiet suddenly stepped up. Volunteers filled every role. The energy shifted.

This episode is a real-time example of how leadership and encouragement shape culture. If you have ever wondered what makes people lean in versus shut down, you will want to hear this story.

"Capcut? Someone was just telling me about that app!"

I meet pastors all the time and share some concepts with them about better digital media outreach, recently a friend connected me with a pastor in South Dallas. We chatted for a few minutes on the phone, and I brought up the way we use capcut in our workflow of weekly church content. I shared some tricks, tips, and simple ways to leverage the free app - and after I hung up the  phone, I thought I would share some of that here. 

Enjoy!
