Fresh Blogs

So I’m looking for some fresh blogs to read. If you blog or really enjoy someone else’s blog, can you leave a comment. I will post links to all the blogs that are added so the rest of the Simply Missional community can also enjoy some fresh blog content.

If you know I already read your blog but would like to have others read feel free to add your blog.

Thanks.

Let's Interact

This blog has become a vital source of ministry and connection for me. So I’m always trying to improve the readers experience, which is not easy because I’m a hacker at all things technology. But I have friends like John who showed me how to install wordpress.org plug-ins.

So I just installed a new commenting system called Intense Debate. So here is what I need from you. Can you leave me a quick comment. Let me know what city you live in and what you do for a living. This will help me learn this commenting system.

Thanks

Alltop-All the top stories

admin — Tue, 30 Sep 2008 23:48:54 +0000

Alltop hails itself as an online “magazine rack.” They have myriad of topics in which one can choose. Under each of those topics (say politics, church, music, etc) is a list of what they consider top blogs. So the good news for the reader who may want to explore a certain topic is the fact that there is a dedicated web-space in-which one could go to and find lots of blogs on those certain topics. See example below:

Truthfully I was a bit shocked that this little blog was chosen under the “Christian“ category. I started blogging for fun in 2002. Just a handful of friends would read and for the most part they would email me about my poor grammar. (which they are still doing) I do my best to keep this blog raw, real and unprofessional. (not trying to make money by blogging-but if somebody wants to pay me, then I’ll take the loot)

Last week I got an email from their founder Guy Kawasaki and he informed me that they made a mistake and accidentally added my blog. Man I was so bummed. OK, just kidding about the mistake. But Guy did inform me that they came out with a new & improved version of Alltop.

So if you haven’t checked it out I would encourage you to do so. It’s really a great tool to find new voices on various subjects. We truly are living in a global village where the average person can have a voice and create virtual friendship that do have substance and meaning.

Organic Church Leadership

admin — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 15:28:27 +0000

Jonathan is local Austin church planter. Sharp dude with a humble spirit. We got to hang yesterday at JP’s Java and talk church stuff. I noticed he had like 9 books in his bag. Dude may eventually have back problems, but that’s another story. He still reads books that I was FORCED to read in Bible College.

This morning he posted some great thoughts on leading an organic church, check out the quote below:

The church is not a problem to be solved or a company to be run; it is a community of Spirit-led disciples…

Bam..I bet your convicted now.

Creativityist

My good friend John has started a great website called Creativityist. If you are a technophile (or maybe your a wanna-be technophile like me) and love to hear words like Web 2.0, GTD, Moleskin, Kindle, Apple etc…I would encourage you to head over to his website. He already has some interesting posts about creativity, work-flow and productivity. So what are you doing, click the link and enjoy!
