		<title>Blur</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since my last post I have…

Slept in 3 different hotels in 3 countries
Been scanned by security in 4 different airports (Interpol now has my picture and fingerprints)
Flown on 5 airplanes

Right about now it is all beginning to blur.  I found myself really wanting to stop&#8230; to  see where I am, to enjoy another cup of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Leaders are Losers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yeah, I’m trying to get your attention with an unexpected title, but it’s true – leaders are loser.

Leaders are willing to lose what they have to get something they don’t.
Leaders are willing to lose friends to make followers.
Leaders are willing to lose money to get motion.
Leaders are willing to lose safety and security to get [...]]]></description>

		<title>Worship at Stamford Bridge</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I attended my first professional Football (soccer) game today.  Quite the introduction to a sport I know very little about – Manchester City vs. Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in London.  I’m not sure I’ve ever done anything that made me feel like a person must when attending church for the very first time.

I had no [...]]]></description>

		<title>Silent Disco</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After dinner last night with the Benham&#8217;s, John Burke and I went back to Kerith to observe what they were doing for students.  Let me say first of all, wow!  Probably the best visual demonstration of Ephesians 4 I have seen in a long time – and the proof of that Godly wisdom is in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Things I learned today</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am sitting in my hotel looking out over the lights of Bracknell.  Rolling around in my head are the things I learned today:
•    Flying through Chicago in February is a game of chance.  I landed in a blanket of snow and made it to my departing gate for London in 15 minutes.  John landed [...]]]></description>

		<title>Across the Pond</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tomorrow I make my first trip across the Atlantic.  I am really looking forward to seeing 5 great cities: London, Copenhagen, Oslo, Stockholm and Amsterdam.  Even more, I am looking forward to meeting church leaders who are working faithfully to reach people and invite them into God&#8217;s kingdom.  I hope to post my thought here, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Big Red Tractor</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was at Verge last week.  Francis Chan showed this video.  It&#8217;s a children cartoon &#8211; with an important and not so childish message.

		<title>Humility</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A friend and colleague posted on humility yesterday.  (ouch!)
This morning I was in Hearing God, an excellent but often overlooked or unknown contribution by Dallas Willard, as part of my devotional reading.  Again the subject of humility:
&#8220;God will gladly give it to us if, trusting and waiting on him to act, we refrain from pretending [...]]]></description>

		<title>Missional or Attractional?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;re not up to speed on the debate &#8211; that&#8217;s ok.  I find the argument quickly spirals into theology territorialism or pragmatic pride.  Neither of which is very helpful.  I do think there is a distinct difference in an individuals posture toward the people around them.  Which of these would be true of you&#8230;

Are [...]]]></description>

		<title>What are they afraid of losing?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was having a conversation today about change.  The subject of values came up and the conversation slowed way down.  Leaders love to talk about vision and strategy &#8211; where we are going and how we are going to get there.  Values don&#8217;t get the same billing. If you lead a team, that&#8217;s where the [...]]]></description>
