I’ve spent the day with 40 clergy and their parishioners from the Easton Diocese of Maryland teaching the Purpose Driven principles. What a great day of discussion it has been. I love it when the light switch around the purposes turns on.
My learning from the day is that we as churches in the south don’t understand tradition. Tradition in the south is 50 - 150 or so years.
In the Northeast traditions go back 200 - 300 years. In fact, today in my talk one of the churches represented is celebrating 316 years of ministry in 2008.
So when we talk about transitioning churches or parishes we need to be sensitive to tradition. Transitioning a church that is 316 years old is different than planting a church or transitioning a church with less than 50 years of history.
I’d love to poll our readers to find out the age of your churches.
Click on “Comments” below this blog posting and give us the name of your church/parish, city/state, and how old it is.
We’ve set a goal of 500 followers on our Twitter account for this quarter.

I’ve just arrived back in Dallas/Fort Worth after being in Florida for a week. Stephanie, the boys, and I had a great time in southern Florida. We can’t wait be back there again.
Learned something about myself on the trip. And as you know learning about yourself is very healthy. That is if you take the learning to heart and do something about it.
Through a caliper assessment, as well as 10 plus meetings over a six day period I was reminded how crucial relationships are on the journey as you allow persons to speak into your life. I was reminded that we are living beings who need nourishing as we are becoming.
I would have to admit that over the past several years my Type A, drivenness, desire to create, confident persona has been on overloaded. And with that I sometimes find myself not being as good of a listener as I should.
During my time in Florida I really got a sense from the Hoy Spirit that it is time in my life to slow down and listen more as I tend to the health of people.
My recap…continue to allow persons to speak into your life, slow down, listen, and remember you have nothing to prove.
I just received and email from Pastor David Miracle of Northridge Park in San Antonio, Texas. They have moved on our recommendations and are already seeing the fruits of their labor.
Here are a couple of pictures they sent us of their progress.
Signage communicating the new parking lot.
Updated baseball field.
Clean and serviceable court yard.
Not to mention the work they have done on an onsite storage facility, additional parking lots, and upkeep of the campus.
Well done Northridge Park. Way to go!
