Young Preacher
Four years ago, after much pushing and persuading from the young people that I refer to as my spiritual sons and daughters, the 40 young leaders (all under the age of 40) I mentor from around the globe, finally forced me to join the world of social media.

I was nervous and somewhat apprehensive at first, but with time, I gained a level of ease and began to compose my ideas in concise statements. I designed my statements to communicate leadership tools and life techniques mostly to the young leaders I was mentoring – most of them being Christian preachers, but some of them being business and political leaders from around the globe.

I called it "Dear #youngpreacher" and began to share the thoughts I wished someone had told me when I first started preaching as a boy, and later needed when I was leading groups as a young man. I incorporated the wisdom I gleaned from the many master preachers and accomplished leaders I have worked with or interviewed over the years. I also mixed in the insights garnered from the current crop of young preachers I know; many of whom are emerging as the top thought leaders of the millennial pulpit. I bound these thoughts into "tweets," and from my mobile device sent them around the world.

Like wildfire, the tweets began to spread; answering, in a small way, the massive need for mentoring of both young preachers and young leaders.

As we analyzed the early data, to our surprise, we observed that millions of people were viewing this material, and they weren’t all preachers. Other young leaders were benefiting by listening in on our "shop-talk" and the hashtag was gaining headway on its own. Hundreds of people began to both write me and tell me to, please elaborate more on these tweets. To release myself from the handcuffs of 140 characters and really drill down on these concepts in detail and example, they urged me to see my tweets as modern-day proverbs for their generation and to actually give these tweets and their generation the attention they deserved.

From these many requests was born this 30-Day Devotional. Stylized as modern-day proverbs and presented in categories to maximize their application, these tweets are designed to bless the life of the reader and to enhance their daily devotions.

I have laced these proverbs with strong Biblical references and my personal stories to enhance their relevance, and I am confident that this book will be a real blessing to your life.

I believe in you!

About the Author

God is using Dr. Chris Hill to help redefine the scope and influence of the post-modern pulpit. Throughout the past 20 years of his ministry, over 30 million people have heard his empowering message of life and hope.

Having served as a business professional, a CEO, an author, a homiletics professor, a student-activist, a philanthropist, and a world evangelist; he comes armed with a global perspective. His insights into the Word of God are both reverent and relevant enabling his messages to touch the lives of people from all cultures, denominations, ages, and socioeconomic backgrounds.

A passionate and compelling speaker, Dr. Hill was called to preach at The Potter’s House of Dallas in the fall of 1997 under the tutelage of Bishop T.D. Jakes, founder and senior pastor of the 30,000 member church. While there, Dr. Hill served as a youth and associate pastor, and is credited with growing the church’s youth ministry from a few members to over 3,000 in less than five years. In the fall of 2003, he heard the call to take his insightful message of Christ internationally and served as a World Evangelist for seven years. Dr. Hill traveled the world, sharing the Gospel with all races, colors, religions, and creeds.

In 2009, Dr. Hill began preaching at a struggling church in Denver, Colorado. Just seven months after his arrival, he was installed as senior pastor of the church, which was then re-launched as The Potter’s House of Denver on March 1st, 2010. With a huge heart for people, God is using Dr. Hill to help lead this now over 8,000-member church, to serve its community; establishing one of Denver’s largest feeding programs, homeless initiatives, a prison ministry that serves over 10 prisons state wide, and a free counseling center that cares for over 1,000 people each month. The church provides services for youth, seniors, children, and veterans; being called one of the fastest growing and most racially diverse churches in America.

Chris resides with his wife, Joy and their 2 sons, in the city of Denver, Colorado, the Rocky Mountain region of The United States of America.
