  • Behind the scenes at “White and Nerdy”

    This is self-explanatory.

  • Newsvine

    My latest internet addiction can be found at Newsvine. How it works is that while I’m browsing and I find something that I think is interesting, I simply seed it to a page of stuff that I want to either look at more closely later, or want other people to check out. Here’s a newsvine…

  • How to greet people at church

    Some very practical tools from our friends at Saddleback Church. Gasp, did he say "Saddleback?" Yeah, Saddleback. As in California. Does that mean Adam is "Purpose Driven?" Um, it means that I think the video is funny. I fully expect to see some of these techniques used this Sunday. Thanks to Tim Schmoyer for the…

  • Thursday at NYWC

    Well, I’d post some pictures but my camera is one of two things I forgot. (The other being my Bible!) My first day here has been incredible. Despite being really tired, I met tons of new people and saw some old friends. My class went great today (phew) and I’m really looking forward to doing…

  • Things I am looking forward to in Cincy

    This will be my first trip to Cincinnati and I’m going into it with a few hopes. Being that this is my second NYWC I know what to expect, I anticipate what I’ll like and dislike about the convention itself. PurposesUnlike the first time, I’m going under a few "mixed" purposes. First, I’m going as…

  • Trekking 2 Peter1

    Yesterday I had the pleasure (and, um… duty?) of filling in for Bob as he wrapped up  a conference in the Atlanta area. I’m looking forward to having him back… and in just a couple of days I’m off to a conference of my own for a week. OK, the truth is that the conference…

  • The leftover bits are funny…

    Today we were creating a video to promote Main Street. I needed some "in between" stuff to make the video clips flow together. (Which we did get eventually!) We had 15 minutes to shoot this and well… we got about 5 minutes worth of outtakes and errors out of it. This isn’t going to win…

  • Hay Ride Tonight

    In just a few hours we’re going to go freeze together. The whole crew from Light Force is meeting together for a hay ride. Man, I haven’t done a hay ride since I was… well, since I was in youth group. 9th grade? 1990? Yikes, been a while. Right now it’s 44 degrees at the…

  • aaahhhhh…. MainStreet is over

    Last night, was the November MainStreet. MainStreet is our kid’s program’s once a month "foyer" activity. (Meaning, we invite the whole church and the whole community to a comfortable event where we introduce a biblical concept.) This was our second one, and it really was better than the month before. We added a lot more…

  • Annual Chicago Pilgrammage

    Today and Saturday I’m in Chicago with 5 Light Force students as we’re enjoying our annual trip to visit Chicago area colleges. Actually, it worked out that we’re crunched for time and a lack of sincere interest in a number of places…. so it’s just one college we’re visiting. We left the house at 4…
