People matter to God and because of that, God calls us as Christians to talk to people about Jesus. Today we will see Philip who did exactly that and because of this one encounter, people in Ethiopia know about Jesus today. We never know how far and wide the message of Jesus will go when we actually open our mouths and share Him with others.

In this episode, Zach Mercurio—researcher, speaker, and expert on purposeful leadership—shares why the most powerful leaders aren't always the loudest or most visible. They're the ones who help others feel seen, heard, and valued.Zach introduces the concept of “mattering” as a core human need and explains how a lack of it is contributing to disconnection in our workplaces, schools, and communities. Through real-world insights and practical takeaways, he shows how anyone can practice the leadership skill of helping others feel like they truly matter.You'll learn why shifting from achievement to contribution can strengthen your purpose, how to build meaningful relationships that combat loneliness, and what it takes to create environments where people thrive.LEARN MORE:> > ZachMercurio.com The Invisible Leader: Transform Your Life, Work, and Organization with the Power of Authentic Purpose (https://www.amazon.com/Invisible-Leader-Transform-Organization-Authentic/dp/1599328518)The Power of Mattering: How Leaders Can Create a Culture of Significance (https://www.amazon.com/Power-Mattering-Leaders-Culture-Significance/dp/B0D8XMWCLJ)WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU:> > We're trying out a shorter format for Motivational Mondays!

Jesus told three parables in a row, all on the same topic. We need to appreciate how much the lost matter to the Father who loves us, and this leads us to rejoicing and praise. (Luke 15:1-24)

Pastor Bryan continues our series by looking at Jesus' interaction with the woman at the well in John 4, and how she used her story to get a whole town to Jesus.

Pastor Bryan brings a message, reminding us that people matter to God. He talks about what it looks like to see the lost in our world and how we can reach others with the hope of the Gospel. Mark 4:35-41

Since Nehemiah first heard about the condition of Jerusalem and the people, it had been about eight months. Even though there was an incredible amount of opposition from the enemies of God surrounding Jerusalem, the walls were complete and the ten gates were installed. Nehemiah remained focused on God and continually sought Him for strength to accomplish His work. It would seem like a really good time to take a vacation. However, Nehemiah took immediate action on the next phase of restoring Jerusalem. It was no longer stonework, but people work. As we step into the second section of this book, we will see how God uses Nehemiah to restore the people of God. The lessons we will learn along the way will be vital for this season of our church family. Download NotesThanks for joining us for this episode and please take a moment to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Friends and neighbors (virtual and IRL): we are so excited to share this episode with you. Now, we know we say that every week, and what can we say, we're excitable folks.

She's a lover of bookstores, vintage boots, dive bars, and bad jokes. The number of times she's seen Celine Dion in concert may disturb you.

Luke 15:1-10. We've all lost something before whether it be keys, a cell phone, or a remote control. When you lose things that aren't important to you, you don't know they're lost until you find them. The things you lose and instantly notice are usually the most important things to you. In this message we discuss what it means when people are lost, why it matters to seek the lost, and the value that Jesus puts on the lost.For upcoming events and important announcements at Skyline, visit our Facebook page for the latest details!If you'd like to check out more resources, get to know Skyline Church, or donate to our ministry and missions please visit www.skylineofallon.com.

This week Nabeel and Phillip had the pleasure of speaking with Grant Kirkwood, a serial entrepreneur with over 25 years of experience building and operating both networks and companies. Kirkwood currently serves as the CEO of Contrivian, a new Cloud Service Provider (CSP) focused on transforming the enterprise experience of finding and utilizing connectivity services. Kirkwood joined from north of San Francisco, California to discuss his experience that spans multiple startups, technology evolution, and much more.After seeing what technology was capable of for communication and learning in the early 1990's, Kirkwood decided to join the industry himself. He shared that, though he came from a family of scholars, his learning came from real-life experiences and immersing himself in the booming industry of digital infrastructure.“Everything I've learned has been from running companies, working for companies, learning from people, no formal education at all.”Kirkwood continuously emphasizes the importance of prioritizing and appreciating the people in a business because at the end of the day, the people matter most. He believes that while technology is an important piece of the puzzle, having an amazing team is what allows a company to do amazing things.“Ultimately, it's people that matter. Yes, you have to solve technical challenges, but I spend most of my time thinking about how to enable a really high performing team to do great things.”Learning from within from the beginning of his career, Kirkwood discovered the value of listening to the smartest people in the room as opposed to trying to be the smartest person in the room. As a result, he acquired mentors, one of which taught him the importance of communication.“The biggest thing that I learned from him is to just communicate to people. These are the facts and you don't need to sugar coat things. You don't need to hide the hard things so that people don't worry.”Kirkwood gained experience with data centers and the technology space early on in life, learning from within the industry, and breaking things to understand how they work, allowing him to develop a unique perspective that he brings to the table today. While the digital infrastructure looks very different now than it did when Kirkwood started his first business in 1996, he is always thinking about people, the team, and how he can create the best culture possible in his business before technology.

Send us a Text Message.Lost people matter to God. Your neighbors, coworkers, classmates and friends matter to God. Your enemies matter to God. Acts 8 is a reminder that not only did Jesus go the cross because lost people matter to God, even after the cross he will do everything he can to bring people to Jesus to find life in the Kingdom of God. Lost people matter to God in ways that sometimes it seems like we have forgotten.  That's why we are called to be partners in the gospel; helping people encounter Jesus.  A Jesus who lived passionately, and healed completely,  who loved people whole and taught life-giving words of truth, who died on a cross and rose again to redeem our lives and create a new community he called church. When lost people matter to you, like they matter to God, there's no telling how many opportunities He will give you to talk to others about Jesus.

People Matter! Luke 19:10 NKJV John 20:21 I. Story of two men. II. Connectors III. The Setting. Holy Week John 12:20-33 IV. The Seekers.

Scott Simmons is the CEO of Ariel Group, an organization offering leadership training, relationship-building skills, and business consultation. He has experience leading teams of subject matter experts, analysts, and consultants. Scott has worked extensively with Fortune 500 clients, including a 13-year term as a Partner at The Gallup Organization. He believes in experiential learning and specializes in helping executives solve complex problems. In this episode… There seems to be a limitless quantity of software and processes to help businesses improve. Data, science, and metrics are all powerful tools, but they tell an incomplete story. Many companies focus on this form of success and still suffer long-term issues or plateaus. Focusing on the human element as a leader can be both personally and professionally rewarding. Yet, how do you implement such a broad concept? Scott Simmons, a consultant who specializes in this area, focuses on soft skills and experiential learning to help leaders connect to others. While some lessons are generally applicable, concrete advice can still be applied to those looking to grow. In this episode of Next Wave Leadership, Dov Pollack sits down with Scott Simmons, the CEO of Ariel Group, to discuss human-centric consulting and improving as a leader. They touch on lessons from Scott's own life, including his time in healthcare and Montreal. They also break down AI, how consulting has changed over the years, and how to apply essential soft skills.

"People really want to know that they have value. We can bring that to them in leadership positions, leadership roles." I had a pretty cool experience a couple months ago and I made a note of it because I knew it would be a great podcast topic. The story really reinforces something we've talked about before. It's the idea that people matter and they need to know they matter. Whether that is in companies, employees, family members or friends, people really want to know that they have value. During a trip to Atlanta, my wife, Valerie, and I stayed with our friends Rick and Vicky. Rick is semi retired now, but he's a guy he can never stop. He always has to be doing something. It just so happened that the night before we arrived Rick stepped in to volunteer at a local homeless shelter. They have a rotation where they need men to go spend the night at a homeless shelter and manage it. They are there to keep order, make sure everything's okay, people are safe, et cetera. During his shift, a man approached him with a request to be quizzed for his driver's license exam. Despite not owning a car, the man simply wanted to prove to himself that he could achieve something. This simple but powerful interaction has stuck with me since. It highlighted the human desire for validation and accomplishment. It serves as a great reminder that leaders can cultivate this feeling of value in their team members, regardless of their role or status. One of the best ways to build relationships is by taking an interest in others' achievements and supporting them, both in personal and professional settings. Genuine empathy, kindness, and understanding in leadership roles goes a long way. By truly listening, being present, and offering guidance, leaders can create a positive and supportive environment that fosters growth and achievement. Take a listen to this episode then apply the lessons Jody and I share in your own life to create a positive impact on others.
