Global Church Movements

I just discovered the new Global Church Movements (GCM) site and was pleased to learn they’re using one of my favorite videos on their home page!  I’ve included it here for you.

Redeeming Online Conversations

If you checked the top trends on nibbo.com for several days now, you’d see a LOT of activity on the internet about Manti Te’o and Lance Armstrong.  The conversations usually aren’t edifying; a lot of negative and trashy comments are circulating about Manti Te’o in particular.

Taking New Steps at the Fitness Center

I forgot that it was Wednesday.

Point A: schools let out an hour earlier on Wednesdays. Point B: my fitness center is next door to a Middle School.

Normally, I try to go workout when I don’t have to deal with school bus convoys and packs of teenagers hanging around the fitness center parking lot. I missed the buses and most of the huddles of  teens, except for when I was ready to go home.  One group of six boys talked animatedly about twenty feet from my parked van

I stood with the car door open, debating with myself.  I had evangelistic “business cards” in my purse on purpose… because of all the kids at the fitness center. I didn’t hear their conversation, but a few colorful words got my attention. I glanced over at them, feeling a bit intimidated. Continue reading “Taking New Steps at the Fitness Center”
