My personal mission statement is ‘To utilize my gifts, skills, talents and abilities to help pastors and church leaders reach their full redemptive potential.”  As a result, God has exposed me to many people who do likewise.  I love helping them promote their quality materials but sometimes many release resources at a similar time.

Therefore, I want to make you aware of the following 14 Resources Which Will Help Pastors Relieve Stress And Improve Efficiency all at one time!  If you have needs in a particular area, these will make you a better leader.

Virtual Services

  • BELAY Solutions – Last week I was at the ReThink Leadership Conference with Carey Nieuwhof.  As we were talking he said the following words, “Brian, let me introduce you to my virtual assistant.”  BELAY expanded the horizons of their virtual assistance service model to include bookkeeping, copywriting services, and web support services. To belay is to provide the support a climber needs to ascend…And that is precisely what they do for their clients.  Don’t believe me?  Ask Carey.

Pastoral Coaching

  • Courage To Lead – Shawn Lovejoy has now built a TEAM of coaches serving as successful pastor practitioners that also lead the movement of coaching through CourageToLead.com. This way they can serve more churches and maybe more importantly, any size church!  Their heart beats for coaching leaders and helping conquer whatever’s keeping them up at night.  Click HERE and reach out to Shawn and his team.  Tell them Brian sent you.  They will make you a better pastor.

New Church Growth Course

  • Church For The Rest Of Us – My friends at Church Fuel have just released a new course designed especially with busy pastors in mind. Want your church to reach people you’re not reaching?  You’ll discover powerful ways to reach the lost through both missional (relational, serving) AND attractional (church services and events) approaches.  Want to learn how to craft compelling church services and sermons that reach non-Christians.  Finally, do you want to understand how to create a culture of grace that attracts non-Christians to your church, and a process of discipleship that grows new Christians in your church.  Then click HERE and check it out.

New Podcast

  • The Global Leadership Summit Podcast – Today, my friends at the GLS launched their first podcast.  It contains incredible leadership lessons from Bill Hybels and John Maxwell.  Need I say more?  You can check it and subscribe by clicking HERE.

Tools And Resources

  • FREE Sermon Series Kit – If you have not picked it up yet, my friends at Ministry Pass have partnered up with Mark Batterson and put together an entire sermon series kit (sermon outlines, graphics, bumper videos, social media) around his new book Chase The Lion from 2 Samuel 23.  Click HERE for more info.
  • Epic Ministry Resource Bundle – My friend Terrace Crawford at Ministry Downloads has created a great tool with over $500 worth of resources available in eleven ZIP downloads for only $79.  The bundle includes bible studies, youth ministry games, graphics, forms and tons of other resources for the local church.
  • Preaching Rocket – I also spent time last week with Jeff Henderson of Preaching Rocket.  In my opinion, there is no finer coach in the area of preaching and communicating than Jeff.  If you have not signed up yet for Preaching Rocket, click HERE to learn more.  As Jeff often says, “Leadership comes with a microphone.”
  • Stop Summer Slump – Injoy Stewardship Solutions is addressing one of the biggest issues pastors will soon be facing with the creation of theirr latest FREE resource Stop Summer Slump.   If you are looking for a 90 Day Tithe Challenge then click HERE.

Upcoming Online Conference

  • Bigger Faster Leadership Summit –  According to Dr. Sam Chand, the size and speed of your organization is determined by the systems and structures that you put in place. Dr. Chand invites you to the Bigger Faster Leadership Summit on May 17-18, 2017 where he will unpack this idea. This 2-day online event will feature training from a team of highly most-respected leaders (one of which is myself!).  The Bigger Faster Leadership Summit is perfect for pastors, market-place leaders, or anyone who wants to take their organization to a new level. In addition to receiving free-access to this event, Dr. Chand is giving away 2,000 copies of his brand new book, Bigger Faster Leadership. Click HERE to sign up.

New Books – I love reading books and the following are four ones which have just come across my path.  And they are fantastic!

Church Finance Assistance

  • BCLC – If you are a Southern Baptist church and needing to get a loan or refinance, I cannot recommend enough that you reach out to the Baptist Church Loan Corporation.  Contact Matthew Carter at mcarter@baptistchurchloan.org.  He even gave his cell – (678)477-3173.  For SBC churches, there is not a better and more ministry-minded person to help you than Matthew.
