How I Use If This, Then That (ifttt) for Organization and Information
We live in a technological age. Over the last couple of days, the posts on our site have reminded us to be careful that we do not get so connected with technology that we forget what is really important. Today, I want to share a practical way to let technology work for you. It is a way for you to connect services you already use and be more efficient. The service is called “If This, Then That,” and is usually referred to as IFTTT. I first found out about this service a couple of years ago, and used it a little bit. Back then, only a few websites and apps…

What I Learned when I Quit Facebook
I like to communicate. I like a room full of people. I like activity. I like to share ideas and thoughts and dreams with others. I am a people person. The advancement of social media for a person like me has caused a reaction similar to that of my six-year old daughter when she recently tried a new dish. She took one bite and said, “Where have you been all my life?!” As an evangelist I use social media for the gospel’s sake. I have had countless Bible studies and private spiritual discussions involving counseling online. I have left “chat” immediately to meet the very people I have been chatting…

A Disconnected Connected Society
Posts, tweets, pins, links, updates… The list goes on and on. IMHO, we are becoming the most disconnected connected people who have ever lived. (By the way; did you see how cool I am? I know tech speak for “in my humble opinion!”) We know what is going on with somebody half-way around the world whom we have “accepted” as a “friend” (even though we’ve never met them), or “follow,” are “linked in with,” or are in some other way connected electronically. At the same time, we have no idea what is going on with our spouse who is sitting right next to us; our children who live in the…

Video Summer Series Update : The Videos Are Ready!
For several months now, we have been letting you know about the Video Summer Series. If you are unfamiliar with what this is (or just need a refresher), here is what we wrote previously: In our first post, written on December 23, 2013 we shared the “Big News” about the Video Summer Series, letting you know that it would be a series of 10 videos, each 20-25 minutes in length, that would be available for free for congregations to use anytime they wanted. We also released the theme, “Building Godly Families,” and the list of 10 speakers. In the follow-up post from March 5, 2014 we let you know that…

Two Blogs You Need to Check Out, Even Though They are Closed
Lebanon Road is a wonderful place to be. Our members are so kind, and the support given to each other is remarkable. A couple of years ago, our congregation went through a series of tragedies that could have broken us. However, with faithful elders and an infinitely faithful God, we did our best to work together through a series of heartaches. While I’m certain that not everything we did was “just right,” I think we can say that we did the best we could. I will not go into too many specifics, but two who were involved in some of these tragedies decided to blog through their grief and healing.…

7 Ways to Be Diligent in Daily Bible Reading
So often, we hear about the need to be regular and diligent in our Bible reading. From sermons to books to other outlets, we are often told that we should spend time daily in the reading and study of God’s Word. And, no matter how good our intentions might be, most of us will fall off the track sometime. It may seem like an odd time of year to write this post, since daily Bible reading articles usually come out around the turn of a new year. But why do we have to rely on the turning of a calendar to get into the Scriptures? Today’s post is not meant…
