Can I Help You Read More This Year?

Well, now they’ve done it!

For years one of the frequently asked questions in my coaching networks has been “How can I read more?”  And for years I’ve been able to quietly give a tip or two in passing and move on, but now…

The team here at Church Leader Insights has twisted my arm and convinced me to share my hard-earned – and up until now closely held – secrets to reading more in a brand new, 75-minute webinar called (creatively enough) “How to Read More.”

The How to Read More Webinar
Tuesday, February 16
1:00pm – 2:15pm Eastern
12:00pm – 1:15pm Central
11:00am – 12:15pm Mountain
10:00am – 11:15am Pacific

Here’s some of what I’ll be sharing:
- How to find time to read (without robbing time from the more important things)
- How to know what to read (and what NOT to read)
- How to increase your reading speed (hint: its not by becoming a speed reader)
- How to retain what you read
- How to get everything you can from a book
- How to stay motivated to read (and not to feel guilty if you aren’t)
- Plus much more

Plus, just for Pre-Registering you’ll receive over $97.00 in FREE BONUSES (that’s more than three times your investment).

So, will you join me (on the phone and over the internet) for this practical training opportunity?

Hurry though, you have to pre-register to get your bonuses and this thing is filling up fast!

Setting & Achieving Godly Goals – New Resource

I am so excited about the brand new Setting and Achieving Godly Goals resource that we’re releasing today at Church Leader Insights.

It’s a jam-packed, 3 hour resource where I teach you how to set and achieve goals in all of the most important areas of your life.

I have never met a church leader who doesn’t want to accomplish something in their life and ministry, to do big, God-honoring things… but I have met a lot of them over the years who don’t know how to set and work towards the goals that will make that happen.

In this brand new resource, you’ll learn how setting goals will grow you and your church, and have a profound impact on your personal life as well.

Specifically, you will learn:

• Why every pastor should be a goal setter (and how to do it ASAP)
• How goals impact the growth of your church (it’s more than you realize)
• What goals can (and cannot) do for your life
• The Biblical connection between goal setting and spiritual growth
• The 10 key principles of GODLY goals (any one of these will make a huge difference)
• The connection between goals and faith (it’s not what you think!)
• The top five types of goals and how to start setting them for your life
• How to make your goals the B-E-S-T!
• Why you may not need more spiritual goals (yes, you read that right)
• The positive impact that goals will have on your spouse and children (they want you to have goals!)
• What to do when you don’t achieve all your goals
• How to fully design your life to honor and glorify God
