In 2009, 48% of Americans reported that they attended church weekly.  

People are leaving traditional church in droves.

No wonder traditional church leaders are often discouraged and disoriented! 

However, there is hope!  A growing number of those leaders are coming to LK10 for training.  Stephen Johnson is one of those leaders.  In this episode (part two of my interview with Stephen) you will hear more of how that training is transforming his church in powerful ways.

When we started LK10 in 2008, we thought we were to focus exclusively on house churches.  Little by little, we saw that the Lord had a larger vision.  Increasingly, LK10 Values and Practices are being implemented in traditional churches.  Here's one of those stories.

Shockingly, it's now clear that the very structure of traditional church is a serious obstacle to making friends.  

How do we know?  

As Michael Frost writes, multitudes of people are walking away from church.  He says "churches are dying due to friendlessness".   The Lonely Crowd:  Churches Dying Due to Friendlessness

The LK10 Community has answers to this serious problem.  One of the answers is learning to ask questions that matter.

That Sunday morning in 1998 was one of the worst days of my life.  I felt deeply betrayed by brothers that I had helped.  And, I carried resentment about that in my heart for 20 years.  This is the story of how Jesus reframed that event.

Key topic for LK10 Leader Teams for the month of Jan. 2022.  

The number of gifted mega church leaders who have fallen into sin is shocking.  Try Googling that sometime - there are dozens!  My contention is that these leaders (almost all are men) have painful events and/or relationships, abuse in one form or another, in their past that have never been healed.  Never been reframed by Jesus.  As a result, the abused becomes the abusers.  This same process of reframing is critical for all of us in order to become healthy spiritual mothers and fathers in the Revolution that is underway.

This topic is the LK10 Leader Team Lesson for Jan. 2022.  What do we do with difficult emotions?  Going to Immanuel for Him to reframe those emotions is a key to becoming a spiritual grown up.  In this episode, I explain how this works and give examples from Scripture.

This is the first in a series of episodes on "learning to ask questions that matter".  In this episode, I explain why this skill is an important part of the new paradigm of church life.  And, I share the insight that I learned as a teenager that got me started on this journey and that changed my life.

Because God has taught us how to make church simple and easy,  I can now plant a new church in 30 minutes. (In my previous life as a traditional church pastor, it took 18 months.) 

In this podcast, I explain how.

We are continuing to ask the Coach what He wants us to know about Tim Ferriss's question:  "What would this look like if it were easy?"  In this episode, He's directing me to begin to talk about what church would look like if it were easy.  In my experience as a pastor, church was complex and difficult.  But, is that consistent with the NT practice of church?

In this episode, I explain what we mean when we say that we, in the LK10 Community, have a radical commitment to Jesus' theology of the Holy Spirit.  And, why this is "the key to easy".
