There is nothing better – I mean NOTHING – than having a culture of volunteers who understand the part they play in the church. Truly, when people begin to see that it is within THEIR best interests to serve, everything changes. Once volunteers catch the vision that serving is a critical part of THEIR personal growth – you hit a new level.

I can honestly tell you. I became a Christian at age 21. I was so on fire for the things of the Lord. I was reading and deeply studying my Bible. I was sitting on the edge of my seat listening to sermons and was being mentored. I loved the feeling of growing in the Lord. Then something blew the doors off my wildest expectations for connection with God and with others. I started serving. I saw very quickly that the depth that I could go with the Lord through serving and partnering with the Holy Spirit was a whole new level.

Listen. If you are in full-time vocational ministry, I guarantee you have tasted and seen that the Lord is good through serving. This is where we want to get everyone to be. I wanted more of the Lord - so I served as a means of growth and connection with Him.

Join me in this journey. Join the Lead Volunteers learning community and let’s get after it. There is so much more for us and our volunteers to experience. We have just made it easier for people like you.

Summary: If you are struggling with the grind and the pressure of leading volunteers, Lead Volunteers can help you get better at your calling and your trade.

I want to stop right now and tell you are doing a good job. I mean it. You clearly want to learn and grow. You are on this video right now and receiving this encouragement because you want to get BETTER. I do not take it lightly that you are spending even a portion of your one and only life to consider investing in the Lead Volunteers Course.

I have worked so hard to provide you with fresh, easy to implement and practical ideas to Lead Volunteers. It is worth it. It is worth it for me to get up before the crack of dawn to build something that can help you. Both of us are DONE with far-fetched, pie-in-the-sky impracticalities. I waited and waited to build this because I wanted it to be tested and workable for people in other contexts. I wanted to give you something believable that has been worked out in the trenches of the local church. I want to be someone you can relate to.

If you are struggling with the grind and the pressure of leading volunteers, I want to let you know that I understand from over a decade of personal experience. Here is what experience does for you: experience allows you perspective. When you have seen God come through for you in unique and interesting ways time and time again. Look to the Lord anew. I do not care how wacked out the problem you are facing might be. And trust me, I have my own set of bizarre stories that just about wiped me out. Look to the Lord.

Let me know if there is a way I could help you. One of the ways I am here to help you is through the LeadVolunteers.com course. I worked very hard to be in a position to help you get better at your calling and trade. Check it out a second or third time and let’s see it we can make this thing work for you.

I have been in ministry for a long time. Like you, I would go to a conference and get all fired up about how I was going to revolutionize my approach to volunteers. I had HEARD some great things.

Do you want to know the reality that I experienced? I came back to an inbox filled with urgent needs. I came back to the reality that Sunday was just around the corner. What I really needed was something that did not take a ton of planning. However, THAT RESOURCE DID NOT EXIST. So, I built it myself.

When I endeavored to build this course, I did not want a DIY or “Do-It-Yourself” type resource. Ain’t nobody got time for that!? I wanted to give you something that could be instantly implemented. I wanted to give you a DFY resource. What I needed all those years ago was a “Done-For-You” Resource. What I needed from those conferences was a plan that was ready to roll.

I have worked and worked so you could have actionable things to download and DO this very Sunday. I want to remind you that you could have this resource. I built this for you. Let’s leverage it together. Join the Lead Volunteers community today.

Summary: Conferences are great for being inspired and recharged, and gaining ideas for ministry. If you need to go deeper, get help in specific ministry solutions, and have resources ready for you, join Lead Volunteers.

I am a huge fan of conferences. Going to a conference for me was so valuable. I got inspired and recharged. I went to all the volunteer breakout sessions. Maybe you did too. But here is the thing. Those breakout speakers get 45 minutes to communicate to you. Trust me. I have been that breakout speaker who wanted to have 20 hours of face-to-face of coaching meetings with each person. I live for that stuff.

But conferences do not really allow for that type of depth. We just need more. That is why I am so glad that you could join me on this leadership journey through the Lead Volunteers material. Together we can dial into specific solutions. WE GET TO GO DEEPER than I have ever been able to go with any 45-minute break out that I have led.

I wanted to give you what I always wanted: Ready to implement, downloadable resources. I wanted to give you quality materials that are modifiable, editable and ready to plug in right now. So here we are. I have worked super hard so that we could meet together just like this. There is so much we could do together and it is literally just behind the door. I am asking you to consider again becoming a member in the Lead Volunteers Learning Community. Join today and let’s go.

When stepping into getting a resource like Lead Volunteers, you may have fears that the time and resources invested may not pay off. You may wonder if this thing is real and tangible. Will this thing result in volunteers sticking around longer?

Well, I have two things to say: First, I did not create this course to rehashes the basics. I did not endeavor to give you another 101-level course where nothing was new. You do not need basic reminders of the same-old-same-old. Honestly, you need to be pushed. You need 301 and 401-level learning.

This leads me to the second thing I need to say: investing in the course DOES NOTHING for you if you do not do work. As they say, “You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make them drink”. I agree. However, I am not even here to lead you to water. I want to make you thirsty. If I do NOTHING ELSE, I want to make you thirsty for the Lord and thirsty to be a better tool in His hands.

Are you thirsty yet? Let’s jump in. Let’s push toward a BEST tomorrow. I am asking you to do hard work. It will be fulfilling. Stop waiting. You have looked at this resource so many times. It is time to join the Lead Volunteers Learning Community today. This is our one and only life. Let’s seize the day and make a level-jump in our leadership.

Summary: Lead Volunteers is a self-paced course where you can continually make progress but on your own terms.

I have been very aggressive about my own personal growth. I have invested in very expensive courses to get more knowledge and skill. One factor that always intimidates me when thinking about getting a course is time.

You may have been concerned about the time involved in a course like this. You may have had hesitations about how much work it might take. First, let me say that things that take hard work usually have great payouts in terms of skills gathered. The Lead Volunteers course has been laid out in very succinct and bite-sized chunks. We have made it simple. It would be rare, in my opinion, for someone to get the course and plow right through all the content in one massive setting.

In education, there is an important concept called, “Soak Time”. The brain learns best through fast paced and intense learnings. Then the brain can subconsciously crunch that new information – even while you sleep. We want to have you join the Lead Volunteers Learning Community. However, you can work at your own pace. We WANT you to take your time and do a few lessons at a time. But, we want you to keep making progress. This self-paced course is built for you to GROW in the midst of your busy ministry life.

What do ya say? Are you ready to make this jump? Join me TODAY. Let’s take the plunge and start learning together through the LeadVolunteers.com material.

Summary: Lead Volunteers will take work and effort in addition to your regular ministry workload. But your extra hard work now will make your future load easier.

Read Article

We have intentionally designed the coursework for Lead Volunteers. Success follows an educationally sound and proven path: READ, REFLECT, WATCH and RESPOND. It is that simple. Each micro learning in this course follows the same doable format. You READ a short section and then REFLECT on what you have read. Then you WATCH a short 3-5 minute video. Finally, you will be asked to make a Lead Volunteer Decision and RESPOND.

There is no need to be overwhelmed. With each section, you will be deeply rewarded as you move through each educationally rich learning cycle. However, I want to call you to action. I want to push you to rise up as a leader. It will take work. It will take effort. This work and effort must be completed IN ADDITION to your regular workload.

Here is the BIGGEST HINT I can give you: Your extra hard work now will make your future load EASIER. Doing your best NOW, puts you in the BEST PLACE for tomorrow. So what do you say? Are you ready to jump in and become a member of the Lead Volunteers Learning Community? Join now. Let’s roll.
