How would you like to lead a group of people that you did not want to lead in a task for which you did not volunteer?

Welcome to the life of Moses.

By birth, Moses should have been raised as a slave. Instead, he is raised in privilege in the most powerful household in Egypt. At the age of eighty, he returns to Egypt to lead the Israelites to the Promised Land.

Discover the leadership principles that made Moses a great leader.

The idea for "Lesser Angels" came about when my brothers and I found an old divorce certificate tucked into a box in my mother's closet. My parents had been married for forty-three years; none of us knew about mom's previous marriage. This discovery led to a series of other questions: What else didn't we know? Was her first husband still alive? Why did they get married? Why did they get divorced? "Lesser Angels" tells the story of a brother and sister in search of answers to these questions.

One of the reasons I love the book of Ephesians is because of how it calls us to live for more than the ordinary life we often settle for. This is true of our personal lives, in our families, and how we interact within the church. God has so much more in store for us – blessings, opportunities, growth, and a purpose so compelling that our brothers and sisters down through the ages have given up their lives for it.

Who do you think you are? That question shapes how we approach everything in life - problems, opportunities, relationships, and more. Our sense of identity influences whether we live in confidence or with shame and insecurity.

We learn a lot from the questions a person asks - we learn about them and we learn about ourselves. Questions reveal a person's perspective, which is built upon their assumptions and their beliefs. If you pay close attention to the questions a person's asks, you will be given a window into how they think and feel.
