I’m about to head out to day 2 of Evolve, the churchplanters.com conference in Cumming, GA. Yesterday after writing briefly about how keeping a calendar and being disciplined was a spiritual matter I got my back side handed to me by Shawn Lovejoy as he talked about the need for leaders to be healthy, which means being disciplined.

He said that if we want to lead healthy churches that we have to be healthy leaders first. And then he talked about being healthy spiritually, emotionally, relationally, and physically.

God had already been working on my heart about my own discipline, or lack of it, but yesterday really sealed the deal for me. So, this morning I was up at 5am and taking care of myself spiritually, and it was a great feeling (by about 5:15am, the first few minutes were ROUGH).

Today I’m sure that God is going to kick my butt around some more. You might see a mobile blog post or two…

Is God kicking anyone else around on the issue of discipline? I would love for you to share you story with us here…
