- Bounce or Crash?
Man, we’ve had a rough month.
Over $11,000 of unexpected bills/expenses from cars, medical, etc.
But I’m not whining or down in the dumps.
I’m upbeat and positive.
And not because of some woo-woo “think positive” schtick.
Nope.
It’s that I’ve learned over the years you only have two options when trouble comes.
Bounce back…
Or…
CRASH!
And it’s 100% up to each of us which one happens.
Because we can’t control what happens but we can control how we respond.
We get to decide if we’re going to be bitter, brittle, and broken or…
Flexible, humble, and responsive.
You can be rubber or you can be glass.
Jesus said, “In this world you will have trouble.”
So like it or not we all get a chance to bounce back or crash.
On that note, I’d love to help you and your church BOUNCE rather than crash.
Unfortunately, 84% of churches in North America are stagnant or in decline…but it doesn’t have to be that way.
Over the past few years I’ve had the honor to help over 2000 churches learn how to get first time guests every Sunday!
Want to learn how?
Time to bounce…
Blessings,
Pastor Jake
Will You Support The Leader Letter?
If you’re reading this you probably know I send a newsletter almost every day (at least 350 per year. And if you didn’t know…I write them myself! It’s the equivalent of writing 10-15 books per year. I get dozens of replies and responses from pastors that share how this daily email encourages them. Right now it goes out to over 33,000 pastors/church-leaders!
But, it’s definitely a time-consuming and challenging task! I spend at least an hour a day on average studying, writing, and managing this newsletter. Over the past few months I’ve considered doing less or stopping the newsletter altogether. Then I get a response from someone and it encourages me to keep going. Here’s where you come in.
I want to focus on writing great content, sharing it with more pastors, and LESS time on creating paid offers and selling. To do that I need your help.
Will you consider supporting the Leader Letter on a monthly or yearly basis?
Only $8/month or $80/year to keep these daily emails hitting your inbox!

How We’re Helping Churches/Businesses Get The Employee Retention Tax Credit (avg. $18,000 per employee)
Right now I’m helping churches get connected with a firm that assists them determine their eligibility for the ERC tax credit. The average check to the church we’ve seen is $18,000 per employee. Incredible right? It’s already been a HUGE blessing to hundreds of churches across the US. But there is a TON of misinformation, misunderstanding, and even scams out there so getting the right help is important. If you’d like more information please click here.
