The Journey of a Christ-Follower
People around the world think different things when they hear the word "Christian". It is a very commonly used word, and the #1 religious word on Google, indexed over 340,000,000 times- more that "Jesus", "God" or any other religious word.

Good to Great
There is a good business leadership book called “Good to Great”- it has been on the bestsellers list for past 2 years or so. The study of truly great companies showed that they focused on working with their team to “get the right people on the bus, let the wrong people off the bus, and helping everyone find their right seat on the bus” before taking the bus on a journey.

SermonCast - Church Podcasting Made Easy
Pastors are realizing that while only a few mega-churches can afford to preach their message to the world through T.V. and radio broadcasting, almost any church can have a world-wide podcast.

Fighting for Aslan: The Christian’s Journey
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
2 Corinthians 10:3-6
