Evangelism Seminars with Sjogren and Murren

Every so often a great idea comes along and a great partnership. Both have happened to me on more than one occasion. Steve Sjogren, a noted author and leader and I are teaming up to do seminars in churches titled “New Evangelism.”

It is an intuitive set of four sessions. The first five we are offering at bargain levels to get a track record and line up some satisfied customers. If you are interested call me at 206-391-9814. We are looking to speak to groups of 100 to 300. No less no more please. We see the sessions being built around the interest and needs of the group and a minimalist design for the curriculum, but well worth it. Steve and I have been doing this a long time. We have presented such material together a few times as well. We will transform the level of evangelism in your church.

Call me or email me at dbraveheart@earthlink.net. Just note seminar under subject.

Leaders: pressing for reality with gratitude…

Published by Doug Murren August 16th, 2007 in Leadership

What’s a leader for? The best answer to that question I have read is one given by Max Dupree. He says a leader has two jobs:

To press for reality
To say thank you

A real leader introduces everyone constantly to what is really going on in the organization. Of course, leadership works in the home as well. Parents contend for reality with their children. Organizations and families tend toward making alternate realities that lead to wrong moves.

Saying thanks is the power source for an organization. Even self-starters need a thank you from the boss to keep their batteries charged.

I really adhere to Dupree’s definition of leadership. I aspire to do these two things well. And I think this is about as complex as leadership ought to be.
