1. Kind of dig this post on “the 3 most disturbing words on TV.”
2. Good thoughts from Scot McKnight on the idea that we can be focused on discipleship.
3. Challenged by Mark Batterson’s post on the importance of keeping margin. Far too often I recognize I’ve lost it, I’d much rather be better about keeping it.
4. Technology often pulls us away from the moment we’re in. Helpful reminder from Chris Brogan to be all there. Anything else, isn’t ok.
5. Interesting Christianity Today article on why young believers are leaving the church. A must read for those interested in this topic.

• Trust me, you’ve never seen dunks like these 2 by Blake Griffin. Never, ever.
• In the category of “only in Portland.” A woman has volunteered to be a part of The Public Isolation Project where she is quarantined inside, on her own, for a month, with only the internet to keep her company.
• The candy tax: a metaphor for our political problems.

Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend.
