Again I am reading more of Mark Driscoll’s book, Death by Love.  It has been a super good read thus far.  Focused on Jesus whole heartedly and it has been good to catch this side of Driscoll.  He is very pastoral and compassionate, yet leading with Jesus and calling people to Jesus.  Good Stuff.  We are almost to Plano Texas.  We will be staying there for a day or so then home to Tucson.

It was cool to check out Epic Church online today until their feed went down.  I am excited for the near future of Epic Church.  There is a lot of work to be done but one thing is for sure, we cannot loose sight of Jesus or the power of the cross.  We must all be willing to submit to God’s authority and repent of our sin and wickedness in order to be conformed more to the image of Jesus.

This was a good day. Here are some thoughts about church planting and maybe another random thing or two.  I also finished reading, Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die.  It was a really good read.  Surprisingly the book had a lot of scriptural references.  I think I will be able to use this book as a resources as a pastor and church planter in the future.  I would recommend this to anyone who is in sales, public speaking, training or marketing.
