Long Distance Encouragement
Everyone needs a pick-me-up from time to time. It always feels good to get an “thata-boy” from friend who you rarely see or maybe from someone you have never met. I love running. Honestly I never really got into it until after I graduated college, but since I really enjoy training and competing in races. [...]
Social Networking Follow-up
Regardless of who you are or what you do, you have two brands: your personal brand and your business brand. For most of us who work in a church or ministry these brands overlap a lot. For the guy working in corporate America this might not be true, but for Christians especially our work life [...]
Social Networking Questions
I have been given the opportunity to chime in on a working document about social networking. Tomorrow Central will be having an all staff meeting about branding, marketing and social networking. Here are just a few of the questions I have been asked about: What do you love about social networking? What drives you crazy [...]
Turning It Off
Last week there were a couple of posts that caught my eye. Tony Steward from Lifechurch.tv posted about the Input Zen. The basic idea is that we all need to spend more time on the things that add value to our lives (exercise, solitude, spiritual disciplines, reading, fellowship with others) and less time on things [...]
3 Causes for Right Now
Yesterday I mentioned that social injustice is happening all over the world at all times of the day.

Social injustice is real and it is happening every single second of every single day. Millions are dying from HIV/Aids, millions are dying from a lack of clean water and [...]

I am no expert on social media, marketing or anything related to the inter-webs. But when an article about social marketing trends appeared in my mailbox today via Exhibitor Magazine I was shocked to read the following quote: “I’m not sure social media is ever going to become a powerful marketing tool. Blogs have show [...]
People of the Second Chance
I alluded to it yesterday but in life we all need radical grace. Not just a little bit to make things warm and fuzzy, but grace that extends beyond all of our fears, failures and fouls ups. I need it. You need it. This guy needs it . . . And so did this guy. [...]
Drunk Driving
A few hours ago my wife Ashley and I sat through a funeral for a man from our church, Gary Lommason. A military veteran and casino security officer, Gary was a simple man who loved people and dropped everything on a whim to serve friends and strangers a like. As we sat through an open [...]
Jesus Junk
I post about my Jesus bobble head often. Why? Well because he is like a store mascot. A reminder of a store I don’t want to become. “Not sure which blows my mind more, some stuff that is on the shelves of the Christian bookstore or the fact that some Christians need them.” @blissspillar I [...]
