Today I’m going to be on a panel at MISE in Wilsonville (20 minutes south of Portland). It is a conference for church leaders wanting to learn more about navigating social media. Hope to meet/see some of you there.
Starting in a week, I’m taking a 2-week intensive summer course at my seminary. I’m hoping that I can keep up my normal blogging, but if not just know that I’m extremely busy balancing my various jobs on top of the added class time. I have to read 3 whole books in the next week before the class even starts, yikes.
