This was originally published March 29, 2015, but has been updated with the sermon after the initial event. Yesterday my wife and I were talking about Holy Week, Passover, and sheep. Part of the whole point of God having the Jewish people keep a lamb for a week was so that they would be close […]
Sam Adeyemi – WCAGLS – 2015
This was a really good talk. A lot of what he talked about applies in my neighborhood in Evansville too.
Brian Houston – WCAGLS 2015
There was so much good in this talk. You can see some of it in my notes.
Sheila Heen – WCAGLS 2015
Here are my notes from Sheila Heen’s talk at the Willow Creek Global Leadership Summit. She was really good. The even better part of this whole talk was that I was getting my semi-annual review at work right as I was putting the notes together! At the end she said some things about how we […]
OneLife West Sermon on Ephesians 6 and Parenting
It was a good day to do it, because it was also the first day that 6th graders are now in the main service with us. We have done the family pew thing for a long time, taking all of our kids in with us, but recently we realized our kids will get more out of their own classes and they go and enjoy them.
Albert Tate – WCAGLS 2015
Andy G said they always end day one with a fiery preacher to bring stuff together from the day. That’s exactly what this guy did. It was really good. I especially like how he acted out the kid coming home from Jesus feeding the 5,000 with all of the leftovers for his family.
Sallie Krawcheck – WCAGLS 2015
I don’t know what it is, but if you come across as cocky or sarcastic, it’s hard for me to stay with you. There were some good ideas in this talk, but only one page of notes. Her rubber band illustration at the end was really good. The 5 points at the end are the gold […]
Brene Brown – WCAGLS 2015
She was a hit a few years ago with her talk on shame, so you knew this was going to be a good one, too. This is the one of the day that I most wanted to go home and talk about with my wife.
Adam Grant – WCAGLS 2015
There were a couple times in Adam Grant’s talk that I was confused or thought he was contradicting himself. I think that wasn’t the case, I was just having trouble following along. There are a few good bits in here though. I should mention that Trey McClain took great notes on all of these, and […]
Ed Catmull – WCAGLS 2015
This was from an interview Bill Hybels did with Ed Catmull, boss of Disney Animation Studios and co-founder of Pixar. Two takeaways I got from this was that he saw the deeper cause and motive behind just making movies and a lot of money. … Sure, people need to know how to render lighting and keyframe the polygons, but they can learn that their own way, what he was concerned about was teaching the culture of creativity and flexibility and trust that will then turn out amazing movies.
