As a nonprofit leader, you make decisions that keep the organization running. The success or failure lies in your hands. That’s a little dramatic, but it gets you thinking. So, as a Director or Officer, you handle financial and operational decisions all the time. What happens when one of those decisions doesn’t work out the […]
We frequently get asked, “Why does our organization have auto coverage, if we don’t own a vehicle?”. And while it’s correct that the organization may not own any vehicles, this endorsement covers the use of borrowed or rented vehicles in your operations. From time to time, most nonprofit and ministry organizations will use non-owned (borrowed) […]
All things in life have their Yin and Yang. The automobile is by far no exception; mine’s in the shop right now. The car is considered one of mankind’s greatest inventions, and I agree. Every one of the 30,000 parts it takes to get out of your driveway each morning, were created to work precisely […]
Church, it’s where we go on Sunday mornings dressed in our best slacks and dresses. It’s where we go to talk and spend time with our fellow church family. But most importantly it’s where we go to hear and learn the word of God, it’s where we go to praise Him. However, our relationship with […]
3 questions: What will you do in a worst-case scenario? Does your team have an evacuation plan in place? Where will you hold services or programs if your facility is not usable?

We’ve moved, and other excitement for the new year. The new year brings many things: new resolutions, new people, new journeys, a fresh start. An opportunity to be better than we were last year. To do the things we set out to do, but didn’t quite achieve. Personally, I have many improvements to focus on […]
As we’ve officially turned the calendar corner into spring, it’s actually starting to feel a lot more like spring. In a relationship with the season, there is a lot of excitement in the air and on the minds of many of us, myself included. Some of these might be trying to remember to do your […]
My wife and I recently sold the first house we ever bought. After six years, we are packing up and moving on. It wasn’t until I opened the door to my basement storage, that I realized how much “stuff” we had accumulated over the years. Being the type of person that tends to throw things […]
I think we can all agree that 2017 was received with a very warm welcome. It’s hard to believe that we are already into its 2nd month. What’s more shocking, to me at least, is that it’s the 2nd week of February and I have yet to write and publish this post. Better late than never […]
