I have now been blogging for 2 years. Sometime this week, I can’t remember the day, I passed the 2 year mark. This blog hasn’t been alive that long because I started on Blogger and later moved to this format, but 2 years does feel like a long time.
If you have a spare 10 minutes, take some time to read through the 90 and counting comments from my post on Tuesday. Apparently I struck a cord with what I said.
Some really great things to share with you this week. Seems well above average for some reason.
Blogs
- Monday Confessions from Brady Boyd, pastor at New Life Church in Colorado. Raw, authentic…loved this.

October is a great month to be a sports fan. Go Huskers, Vikings, and Twins.
