For those of you who have been reading our blog for a long time, you have probably noticed that we have really been focused this year on the site. Thank you for your consistent visits and kind words about the site. I hope you find it obvious that we love doing this, and that we are always striving to make the site better. That’s why we are taking a break. That’s right, we are taking a short break from the site, but I think you will appreciate what happens when we are done. We have a couple of huge things you will be introduced to when we get back, but…

Today’s post is very special, because it is a “blog hop.” Five blogs are all writing on the same topic, and we hope you will check each one out. The topic today is simply podcasting. Five writers are each listing the podcasts (by category) they listen to, and linking to where you can find the information about that podcast. At the bottom of the post is the link to the other writers who are involved. MY PODCAST LIST   #1: Brotherhood Podcasts (produced by members of Churches of Christ) Ashville Road Church of Christ (Drew Kizer) Bear Valley Church of Christ Sermoncast (Neal Pollard) Behind the Pulpit (The Equip Network)…

Today’s post is a quick link, but one I think you might like. I was recently asked to be a guest on an internet radio program called “Surviving the Credit Crisis.” The program deals with helping people who are struggling with the new world of real estate, and is hosted by Karen Simpson-Hankins. She does a great job as a host, and I enjoyed the time on the program. She asked me to be a guest, talking about how to save up for home repairs and maintenance, a topic I had written on recently at ChristianPF.com. The program went live this morning. If this is a topic that you are…

A few weeks ago, we wrote a post on how to start a blog if you are not a techy person. If you are interested in starting a blog, I highly suggest you go back and look at those basic steps. Now, you’ve started your blog and you are posting articles, pictures, videos…whatever you want. But you also want people to actually come to the site. How do you do that? I am nowhere near an expert, but I have learned a few things that work (usually by learning what didn’t work!). Sometimes one will work, while at other times another will. Sometimes none of these work. If you will…

Evernote is one of my favorite tools. Their motto is “Remember Everything,” and I pretty much use it to do just that. However, getting started with Evernote can be daunting. Fear not! I’m here to help. Today’s post is meant to help you get started with this amazing program, but to do so without tech-speak. I hate tech-speak! Also, starting out with a program like Evernote without a visual can be difficult, so I created this screencast to help you! It’s 15 minutes in length, and I hope you like it. After the screencast, there are links to a couple of very helpful resources that I hope you’ll check out.…

Each month, we send out an email newsletter. Our goal is to send out content that is a little different from our blog, and to do so in an easy-to-read format. We strive to make these newsletters where everything can be read in under 20 minutes (at the most). Just a few minutes ago, we sent out our February newsletter to 140 subscribers. This is a free resource and we never “spam” you. We only send the newsletters once per month. If you are not subscribed (again, it’s free!) just fill in this form: Subscribe to our mailing list Or, you can click here to subscribe. Our goal is to…
