Issue 29 - Sundays 101
09 Mar 2010
Winning on Sunday mornings is the third key to growing a NZ church or corps.
Issue 28 - Have you found your church dream?
31 Aug 2009
Without a clear vision we wander all over the place. But with wise leaders, a clear vision and good strategies, we can grow marvellous community-shaping churches..
Issue 27 - Have you found the missing link?
30 Mar 2009
Have you ever wondered why some New Zealand churches grow and become strong while most don't? The answer is leadership. Well-led churches grow, under-led churches plateau and die.
Issue 26 - What I’ve learned about coaching
06 Nov 2008
Why do some churches/corps do so well when most struggle and even die?
Here are six interconnected pieces of the jigsaw I've picked up through extensive coaching over the last few years.
Issue 25 - Should we coach our Churches and leaders?
01 Sep 2008
I suggest you put coaching at the top of your to-do list because skilled coaching is the fastest way to turn your churches around, as I’ve proved many times in other situations.
Issue 24 - Should the Church become more militant?
01 Jul 2008
As we’re talking about the ‘militant’ church, we’ll start with the ‘the military’ itself to help us with our picture of what this church looks like. Then we’ll work the issues out from there.
Issue 23 - Has the Church lost its evangelistic edge?
01 May 2008
In a word, you’re concerned that somehow, somewhere along the way, many churches have stopped challenging people to follow Jesus. And you wonder how to revitalise them.

01 Mar 2008

01 Nov 2007
Let’s start with Lk 4.14-30, the setting for Jesus’ dream, and consider what the dream means for us today.

01 Sep 2007
You now ask about how to grow your church family much larger—and especially how to get many more members who’re committed to your mission and the wider work of your denomination.
