Tell the Story
I watched in agony as my beloved Cowboys got shredded like a document at an Enron accounting party.As usual, I was intrigued by the background information that the announcers provided. Story after story. Neat insights. Quips. Humor. All of it added to the game, even though the outcome was to my disliking. But it serves [...]

Friday, January 1, 2010
I may totally skew the true meanings of these two words with this article, but bear with me. In days gone by, we consumed information in a linear way. For instance, TV shows often went one show to the next and you needed to know what happened previously to know why it was relevent to [...]

Wednesday, November 25, 2009
Here are things I am reluctantly thankful for: I am thankful for shortfalls. They remind me of the importance of God being my provider. I am thankful for difficult relationships. They remind me of how much more I need to continually work to be more like Christ. I am thankful for frustrations. They remind me [...]

Thursday, September 24, 2009
Not too long ago, I wrote an article about Twitter shortcuts that got a lot of attention. So much so, if you Google “twitter shortcuts”, the article comes up at a respectable second place.

Thursday, July 9, 2009
With all technology, there is always this push/pull towards new technology or away from technology. Twitter is no exception.

Twitter will not replace your outreach [...]

I was playing paintball a few years ago. There was a shed that we were supposed to protect. I was hiding behind the door as someone on the other team came through. I told him to surrender or get painted. He turned, put his hands in the air. Looking at his eyes, I knew there [...]

Wednesday, June 24, 2009
I was in the book store a few weeks ago, and my eye caught the book entitled “What Women Wish Pastors Knew” by Denise George. I have seen this book here and there. But I felt like I really needed to read this book. I believe men, and specifically pastors, often times overlook what women [...]
