  • Maxwell Leadership Podcast - Lead to Give, Not to Get

    In this Thanksgiving-week episode of the Maxwell Leadership Podcast, John Maxwell reminds us that effective, impactful leadership isn't about what you receive — it's about what you give. He explains how the most effective leaders focus on servant leadership, sowing into others, and making their contribution bigger than their reward.

    After John's lesson, Mark Cole and Traci Morrow share how this principle applies in today's organizations—from mentoring employees to overcoming entitlement and inspiring genuine employee motivation through example and gratitude.

    You'll learn how to:

    • Replace entitlement with a mindset of service and contribution.

    • Lead through generosity, not expectation.

    • Turn competition into collaboration by focusing on team growth.

  • Be Still and Know Daily Bible Devotion - November 26th - Revelation 1:8
    Revelation 1:8
    “I am the Alpha and the Omega – the beginning and the end,” says the Lord God. “I am the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come – the Almighty One.”
    Everybody is interested in the future, and the book of Revelation is designed to help us as we prepare ourselves for it. If you were looking for a map or a timetable of events, you will be sadly disappointed. What the book gives us is a vision of God, who is so powerful that however great and fierce the opposition, he will be victorious. The book of Revelation is intended not to scare us or tantalise us but to give us confidence in our God, who has the whole of history in his hands.
    Our verse today beautifully describes how history is embraced by God. Using the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet, God is described as being the Alpha and the Omega. He was there before the dawn of creation, and he will have the final word. He is described here as the Almighty, a description that is used nine times in this book, and only once in the rest of the New Testament. Writing at a time when the Church was experiencing desperate persecution, John wanted to make it clear that all power and might was in God’s hands. His readers could place their lives in his hands with confidence.
    Our society today is racked with fear as it looks to the future. There are multiple layers of fear ranging from climate change, social unrest and economic uncertainty to anxiety about pandemics and the possibility of nuclear war. This world is a precarious place and so it is all the more important that we put our faith and trust in a God who has the whole of history in his hands.
    Question
    Do you feel fearful or confident as you look to the future?
    Prayer
    Lord God, I worship you because you are the Alpha and Omega. Thank you for the confidence and peace that I can have as I look to the future. Amen

  • Curiously Kaitlyn - What's the Point of Prayer If God Knows Everything?

    Does prayer make a difference? After all, if God knows everything about us, then why should we bother praying? Kaitlyn helps us understand how prayer is more than listing our requests, but an opportunity to experience relationship with a Father who delights to hear from His kids, reshaping our desires, and drawing us into dependence on Him.

  • The Thriving Christian Artist - Jesus The Artisan: Five Creative Principles For A Faithful Life

    Send us a text

    Before the crowds and miracles, there was a workshop. We dive into the overlooked years of Jesus’ life and uncover five surprising lessons from His time as an artisan—insights that can transform your creative process, your sense of calling, and your daily life in the marketplace.

    We explore how formation happens through process: patience, repetition, and the humility to start again. We talk about why learning people—presence, empathy, and emotional intelligence—matters as much as technique. We unpack how beauty trains the soul to see what others miss, and how structure and integrity give our work the strength to carry vision. Then we reframe hiddenness as sacred: most of Jesus’ life was offstage, and those years were not wasted. They built a resilient inner life that could hold a public assignment.

    Along the way, we offer practical applications you can use right now. Treat your studio like a sanctuary where worship and craft meet. Ask God what He’s forming in you through your current season. Slow down to see the divine in the ordinary. Practice eye contact, focused listening, and undistracted attention with clients and neighbors. Build simple systems that protect your energy and honor your value. And give yourself permission to enjoy the season you’re in, trusting that quiet faithfulness is not second best—it’s God’s chosen path to strength.

    If you’re an artist, maker, or creative professional hungry for clarity, confidence, and spiritual depth, this conversation will help you see your studio as holy ground and your marketplace role as a true ministry. Listen, reflect, and share your favorite insight with us. If this resonates, subscribe, leave a review, and send the episode to a friend who needs courage for their hidden season.
