Dear Pastor (my heartfelt letter to you)

Dear Pastor/Ministry Leader, 

First off, let me say, I am a fan of yours. You have a very significant calling and the stakes are incredibly high. We need you on fire and engaged. Unfortunately, the statistics tell a different story.

I can relate. I’ve been a pastor since 2000. When I first started, because of the pressure of ministry and pain in relationships my past caught up with me. My toxic coping strategy of self-injury intensified. I’d preach sermons on Sunday and carve words into my body on Monday.  I believed lies about myself and lies about God.

Thankfully, God wanted me free so badly he confronted my sin and pain and led me through a complex and intense journey of healing.

Twelve years later, still serving as a pastor, now at Grace Church in Powell, Ohio I have a passion to see people, especially pastors become Souls on Fire.

I’ve been able to share my journey of recovery most recently though a unique message called Your Secret Name. I am committed to sharing this message of hope with you. My guess is, like me, you’ve believed some lies about yourself and your Father too. I believe these lies take the form of Names that hold us back from our potential.

I’ve partnered up with the Pastor’s Retreat Network (and many other sponsors…full list coming soon) in order to help pastor’s get greater clarity about their Secret Name (Revelation 2:17). I invite you to click on a few links below in order to learn more. Please prayerfully consider attending the Your Secret Name Freedom Conference, July 20-21, in Columbus, OH.

Register now for this free luncheon (on May 31st if you are near Ohio) or the free pastor’s conference call (on June 6th), to learn more about the Your Secret Name message and how it can help you and your people.

Contact David Branderhorst with questions.

the 3 things your dream won’t do

Dreams are funny. They’re both stimulating and slippery.  Addicting and elusive. They’ll do a lot for you, but they won’t do these 3 things:

  1. Dreams won’t grow by themselves. If you give up on your dream, it will give up on you. Just like any living thing, you need to feed it in order to see it grow.
  2. Dreams won’t come easy. If your dream comes easy, then it’s not big enough. Anything worth something takes effort. If yours doesn’t require any, then exchange it for one that takes more energy.
  3. Dreams won’t be free. Most people miss this. They think their dream should be free. My dreams have always come with a price. Sadly, most people aren’t willing to invest in themselves or their dream and so people never invest in them either.

I love to see people achieve their dreams – it fulfills my purpose: IGNITING SOULS. I’m proud of my clients. In the last month they:

  • landed a job that is more than 10 times bigger than their current context and more importantly, in alignment with their OPUS.
  • began to author their first book.
  • clarified their Overarching Vision (their Big Dream).
  • launched a new business.
  • secured their biggest speaking gig to date.
  • conquered a fear that sabotaged them for more than a decade.
I’m proud of them. They’ve realized the Big 3 = Grow your dream, Work for your dream, Invest in your dream.
We have 3 steps in the next 3 months in order to help you make your dream a reality. Spots are limited and they will fill up.

She needed to hear me say this

(This post includes just one publishing secret. Many more are included on a free recorded call. Listen here.)

The other day I was chatting with one of my coaching clients. I am a fan of hers and the transformation she’s experienced and that’s why I had to tell her.

She keeps referring to the time in the near future when she will become an author once she publishes a book. (As if she needs a book contract to legitimize her dream.)

What she doesn’t realize is that the way she refers to herself reveals the way she sees herself and the current level of her self-belief.

That’s why I challenged her. I told her to begin referring to herself as an author who is writing a book.

She tried it immediately and she told me it’s working. She’s now telling her friends and family that she’s writing a book. She’s now engaged. They’re asking her what the book is about. And she’s telling them. She’s making it up and writing it mentally as she talks about it.

A simple change in vocabulary injected belief and accountability. She lassoed her future and brought it immediately into her present.

She needed to hear this and very soon we will need to hear about her new book.
