Mid 2009 Evaluation
Today is June 30th, the midway through 2009. I thought I would take a few minutes to look back at my 9 goals for 2009 to see how I am doing.
- I have spent a lot of time seeking the face of God, never as much as I need to, but I really desire & need His guidance for my life and the life of Revolution Church. I am behind on my reading the entire New Testament. Gotta step that up a little.
- I feel I am making strides at being a better steward of my time. I still need to improve on balancing family, personal time, work, church, pastoral work, and everything in-between.
- Still not the pastor & leader I desire to be for Revolution Church. Changing my reading list from leadership books to more books on getting closer to God! (see #5)
- Hehe… Not too much healthier than 6 months ago. I dropped about 15 pounds, but still more to go!
- Reading list has changed a little (I knew it would). Main point in this goal was to always strive to learn. Currently reading Axiom: Powerful Leadership Proverbs
& Servolution: Starting a Church Revolution through Serving
. Next up is A.W. Tozer’s The Pursuit of God
and Tim Keller’s The Prodigal God: Recovering the Heart of the Christian Faith.
- This one I have done. I am learning to laugh and have more fun. I think this happened naturally as #2 improves. Seems the more time I spend with my family, the more I laugh and smile.
- Blogging & Social Networks… I am finding Facebook & Twitter have helped in communication with friends & Revolution peeps. My blogging is very hit and miss. Blogging takes time (see #2).
- Susanne and I have started making dents in our debt! BIG dents!!! Thank you Dave Ramsey: Emergency fund complete, and debt being attacked using the debt snowball!
- Dating my wife more: Not going so good. I have to start dating my wife more! For that matter, I also must be more intentional about taking my daughter out, so I can teach her how a guy is supposed to treat a gal.
So, how are your goals going? It is important to examine the progress of things we set out to do…
