Blogging, Facebooking, Twittering. Where did these words come from anyway? I’m not sure, but I am convinced that each of these is a tool that we should consider adding to our ministry toolbox.
I’ll share with you on another day about why I think so, but for now, let’s look at how to set up a [...]

I’m always involved with more than one book at a time. Yes, I lack focus, but at least I’m purposeful in my distractions! My latest reading list includes:
