Storytellers
We’re all a bit of a storyteller when it comes to life. It’s been with us since the dawn of time. We all have interesting stories. It’s all in the delivery.

Google Webfonts →
Very cool. Tired of the standard Arial, Courier or Verdana? Google’s got the hookup. At least 222 fonts to choose from. The site includes a nice browser to find what you need.

Orange11, day 2
Again, much more out there than I could post right now, dear reader. Check childrensministryonline.com and Kenny will have everything in detail now. I will probably go back through my notes this weekend and write more about it. Until then, here are a few things I learned:
Jeff Manion, author of The Land Between really was a nice surprise. There is lesson learned from the Israelites and their...

Orange, day 1
There are much better recaps than I could ever provide. Here’s what I came away with though.
I took the production pre-conference track and really enjoyed it. Anna Simmons provided the best line of the day for large group production: “We aim for perfection but we don’t depend on it.”
The theme for the conference is “It’s Your Move.” Instead of just...

One follow-up I do get is, “So, you’re taking off work for this?” My day-job is a System Administrator at an ad agency in Atlanta, GA. Children and family ministry is a side gig (or at times, another job).
Starting Wednesday, I’ll be at...

I’ve been scared for a number of reasons.
Mainly about what people will think.
What if I’m wrong? What if the very first thing I put out there is mocked beyond recognition?
That’s the short of it for right now.
But, my domain is finally reconfigured and I am, yet again, back to blogging.
I’m going to put away the fear for now. I work in advertising but I am not an...

Confession
Today was an amazing day. I will be honest that had something hidden for nearly 30 years. I came clean today to those who I had wronged. It was a wonderful moment of forgiveness and reconciliation.
It started with a message from Andy Stanley at North Point Community Church. I attend another church in Atlanta but have his sermons in my podcast feed. The latest message on “Life...

Driver attacks cyclist after texting comment →
It goes without saying the disdain motorists have for cyclists around Atlanta. But heaven forbid we comment on the level of distraction you choose to engage in while driving.
