This morning I’m sitting in Starbucks with my dad who is visiting from {crazy} Cali…he’s not only sharing his wi-fi code with me – but giving me another glimpse into his life.
He’s sitting with his macbook pro, iPhone…and most importantly, a Bible and set of pencils and highlighters to mark the thing up as he studies.
I’m still learning the proper balance of celebrating wins that aren’t total wins. Like when you have something go really well, but as you walk away you see all the things that could {maybe should} have been better and it takes some of the win out of it.
This is a video from a photo shoot {by my awesome wife}. She was taking shots to put in my office for the summer {genius} and after reviewing them I couldn’t resist movieing them. Yeah, add that word to your list.
So one of the things I love about my job is keeping up on technologies that can be used to further what God is doing through Faith…it is also one of the hard parts of what I do. This week, for example, I caught the end of a live video cast from Tucson on how to use StreamingChurch.tv - and of course how it is “necessary” for us and how it will pay for itself. That part is good. I’m kidding – it’s all good.
There are just WAY too many options out there – and my job is to figure out which ones we utilize and which ones we respectfully decline.
One book I read {The Blogging Church} said you have to figure out whether the new technology is a tool or a toy. Not 100% on this one yet. Could be both…
Not only is ‘Unbelievable’ the name for the song in this video – but the animation and clever elements are pretty unbelievable as well. Wait, can you say something is pretty and unbelievable at the same time?
