Laurie KennedyI have the best job in the world. I get to laugh, pray and cry with Pastors and church leaders all day long.

The newly trained car rental agent, had politely asked what I did and where was I headed. I confirmed my title was a Leadership Coach and we were heading to a conference with Pastors. The rental agent continued to question me. I shared that as a Leadership Coach I speak and consult in Leadership retreats across Western Canada. Further, I consult with people who love God, read their Bible and do their best to share God’s love with their communities. I also connect with leaders in 80 countries through Social Media. It was a short but positive conversation.

In our conference that week the speaker illustrated research that 80% of the population would respond positively if a friend (someone they knew and had a relationship with) would invite them to church, Bible study or a church activity. The data was fascinating. I haven’t met that particular Rental Agent again, but my prayer is that our brief conversation would move him one step closer to knowing Jesus. Then, someone (a friend of his) would invite him to know Christ.

“Then Jesus made a circuit of all the towns and villages. He taught in their meeting places, reported kingdom news, and healed their diseased bodies, healed their bruised and hurt lives. When he looked out over the crowds, his heart broke. So confused and aimless they were, like sheep with no shepherd. “What a huge harvest!” he said to his disciples. “How few workers! On your knees and pray for harvest hands!” (Matthew 9:37-38 MSG)

It is a special honor. I really do have the best job in the world. I get to share with people wherever I travel about God’s love and my relationship with him.

Leadership is … sharing God’s love.

Yours in Service,

Laurie D. Kennedy
Leadership Coach
