Before Moses came down the mountain a second time, before Israel had said one word of regret for the golden calf, God had already told Moses exactly who He was – a merciful God. C.H.E.W. with Me New here? What is CHEW? — a 30-second practice that grows into a day woven with God’s love. C –…
Peter thought seven times was a generous amount of times to forgive someone. Jesus didn’t correct the math — he obliterated the whole idea that forgiveness comes with a limit. Most families are running on some quiet version of Peter’s math when we need to reorient ourselves towards God’s view of forgiveness. C.H.E.W. with Me…
The fear of what God’s love might ask of you doesn’t shrink when you avoid the hard passages in Scripture, but it does get outgrown when you CHEW on His love while sitting in the discomfort. I learned that the slow way, through CHEWs that started strong in the morning and went flat by afternoon…
Your spouse could probably draw a floor plan of your kitchen from memory. They may not be able to name a single person you sit across from in meetings all day. Most executives don’t mean to keep their work life with their spouse — but they’ve built a wall around it and never noticed.. C.H.E.W.…
You have a 360 review, an annual survey, and a leadership coach, and you still might not know what your team actually thinks of you. NUnless you make intentional effort to get real feedback, none of those tools can surface what’s genuinely going on. C.H.E.W. with Me New here? What is CHEW? — a 30-second practice that…
Wanting something a lot has never been the same thing as having a plan. The gym membership you bought back in January, unused since March, is proof. Most Christians are running their whole spiritual life on intentions that felt real the day they were made, but fade under the real stress and busyness of life.…
You have people who know your title, your win rate, and your calendar. You may not have a single person who knows what’s actually going on underneath any of it. Somewhere between the first promotion and the corner office, most high-performing believers trade real friendship for a very well-managed reputation. C.H.E.W. with Me New here? What…
Every love you’ve ever trusted with your whole weight has, at some point, run out of strength to hold you. God’s love has not. It has held everyone who has ever leaned on it, all the way to the end, without once losing its grip. C.H.E.W. with Me New here? What is CHEW? — a 30-second practice…
You’re standing in the garage at 8am on a Saturday, staring down a leaf blower, a stack of mulch bags, and a to-do list longer than your arm. Despite the seemingly endless list of chores, it’s worth asking what an empty garage would actually mean. C.H.E.W. with Me New here? What is CHEW? — a 30-second practice…
A few months ago, Dan Rockwell and I decided how we’d actually spend our weekly coaching time: not leadership in general, but specifically what helps Christians get God’s love from head to heart — the thing I’m building my whole practice around right now. Walking into last week’s session, I caught myself running a quiet…
