  • Maxwell Leadership Podcast - How Empowerment Fuels Team Success

    How do the best leaders unlock extraordinary results in their teams? In this week's episode, John Maxwell reveals how empowering others not only helps them reach their potential, but also equips them to pass on that growth beyond themselves!

    After his lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Robinson dive into practical strategies and real-world examples to help you apply empowerment in your own leadership journey right away.

    Key takeaways:

    • The strongest teams thrive when leaders actively demonstrate that they need their people and invite them to contribute.

    • Empowerment is more than delegation; it's giving team members authority, resources, and trust to lead.

    • "You can choose control or growth, but not both." — Craig Groeschel

    Our BONUS resource for this episode is the How Empowerment Fuels Team Success Worksheet, which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John's teaching. You can download the worksheet by visiting MaxwellPodcast.com/Empowerment and

  • Be Still and Know Daily Bible Devotion - January 21st - Mark 4:26-27
    Mark 4:26-27
    Jesus also said, “The Kingdom of God is like a farmer who scatters seed on the ground. Night and day, while he’s asleep or awake, the seed sprouts and grows, but he does not understand how it happens.”
    This wonderful little parable tells us why it is so exciting to work for God. As I sit down at my laptop to write these reflections, I haven’t any idea how God will use them. I have no way of knowing who you are or what your needs are at the moment, but God knows and uses what I am putting in his hands. When we care for another person, offer a word of encouragement or write a thoughtful email, people will be blessed by God, but in a way that is totally beyond our knowledge. It’s just the same for the farmer who may not have any understanding of botany but who simply knows that once he has put seeds in the ground, growth takes place, and it happens whether he’s working hard or sleeping in his bed.
    Let this be an encouragement to you: nothing that you ever do for God is a waste of time. I am more than aware that it can feel like it at times. Working hard in a youth club where there is only ever rudeness and cynicism, working in a church where the numbers are declining and the people are reluctant to change, sharing your faith when people don’t seem to take you seriously, caring for people who are demanding and unappreciative – there are lots of situations in which it can be really tough to serve God. However, be sure of this: if you are doing God’s work, blessing will flow in miraculous ways from what you do. Don’t ask me how God does it or how he makes things grow. I don’t know, and I don’t need to know.
    Whatever you are doing today, commit it to God and you can be sure that, miraculously, it will help to make his kingdom grow, even though we haven’t a clue how he does it.
    Question
    In what ways does this little parable encourage you?
    Prayer
    Lord God, thank you that your kingdom is constantly growing. Help me to work enthusiastically for you today. Amen

  • Thru the Bible on Oneplace.com - Revelation 3:7-13
    In this study of Revelation 3, Dr. J. Vernon McGee tells us about a church that was true to the Word of God. The church of Philadelphia represents all churches the world over that remain true to preaching and living out God’s Word. Dr. McGee loved one verse in this passage so much it became Thru the Bible’s theme verse.

  • Curiously Kaitlyn - Why Do We Bow Our Heads When We Pray?

    Why do Christians bow their heads when they pray? Is it just tradition, a way to avoid distraction, or does our posture actually shape our faith? Kaitlyn and Producer Mike explore where bowing came from, how the Bible depicts it, what the early church thought about prayer posture, and how our bodies help form our hearts. Also in the episode: feudal hand gestures, sugar glider onesies, and why distracted prayers might not be something to feel guilty about after all.
