A different blog you might enjoy
Posted on 30. Mar, 2010 by Kenny.
Do you ever get tired of reading ministry blog after ministry blog after ministry blog? Do you need a “blog vacation?” I thought you might.
Let me introduce to you my favorite, non-ministry blog. It’s called Dixie Gypsy and it’s written by my beautiful wife. When I was 18 I made a list of the things I wanted in a wife (yeah, I was that kind of guy). I’ll share a secret with you. One of the items on the list was that she would be a Southern girl. Hey, what can I say? If you’re from the South, you know what I’m talking about. 
So, my little Southern Belle is writing her own blog. Actually, she started the blog almost two years ago but got busy with other stuff.… Read the rest

Guest Blogger: Sara Conley – Volunteer Week
Posted on 16. Feb, 2009 by Kenny.
Last week my wife wrote a couple of posts. If you missed them, you can catch them here and here.
I know I’m biased, but I felt she had some really good things to say. She’s actually worked on my staff as well as another campus’ staff as a volunteer director. She rocks. When she was a nursery director, only two times did she ever have someone no-show. Two times people, that’s unheard of. She developed an incredible report with her teams and she always knew who would be there, who wouldn’t and who’d be filling in.
So, I invited her to guest blog all this week. It’s Volunteer Week and she’s going to hit several issues regarding volunteerism. Here are a few examples:
- Your ministry attitude toward volunteerism
- Your ministry’s volunteer culture (didn’t know you had one… you need to read this one)
- Cold Call recruiting (sometimes you have to do it)
- Volunteer training
So, I’ll be blogging some this week as well, but if you only have time to read one post a day from this site… be sure to read Sara’s!… Read the rest

My first guest blogger
Posted on 10. Feb, 2009 by Kenny.
Okay, from the day I started this blog, I thought I’d open it up to writers other than myself. I thought that it would make this blog more well rounded and fun. My intern from this past summer will be guest blogging at some time, he’s already promised to write about his experience in Burkina Faso over Thanksgiving.
However, I’m honored to have a very special guest blogger today. I have amazing respect for this person as we’ve been very close friends for over a decade now. I can honestly say that this person’s influence has significantly influenced my career and I’m way better at what I do because of this person. Who is this special blogger?
Sara Conley, my wife.… Read the rest
