Every time I mention to someone that I wake up at either 4:30 or 5:00 a.m. the first question they ask me is “Why?”. Why would anyone who doesn’t HAVE to wake up that early do so? Apparently it’s OK for people who must be at work that early, but why punish yourself?
I’m not naturally [...]

Why I Twitter (and you should too).
Posted in Twitter, blogs, church, friends, leadership, ministry, news, reading, updates, writing on August 12, 2009 | 1 Comment »
I’ve had a hard time convincing my wife and others like her why I Twitter. “Why do you use twitter? What’s the point?

Posted in blogs, church, humility, leadership, perspective on June 18, 2009 | 1 Comment »

A few months ago I sketched out a blog post about the death of blogging. In the post itself (which never met the net), I described how boring blogging had become and how I felt that there wasn’t much being said on most blogs — including this one. I posited that the reaosn for this was [...]
