If you missed it...

If you like being weeks or months (or maybe even years) behind the rest of the digital world like I am, then this summary of things I've come across recently is perfect for you.

• The most annoying question...it was asked a year ago by Sammy Adebiyi on 'How Much Does God Weigh?', but maybe it needs to be asked again.

• Similar theme, and more questions to ask yourself from Kim Walker (of Jesus Culture).

A few things that were on my blog:

• 'Your Best Life'? One of my pet-hate-phrases.
• Inner Beauty vs Outer Beauty...does it mean one or the other? A project 3:11 update and pondering.
• The Difference - starting your day with God and the difference it makes.
• Giving and being generous with more than just your money.
• Hey, God, are you forgetting something?

And pretty sure you can't have missed this... Invisible Children and Kony 2012. But if you are wanting to know more, Rachel Held Evans has put together a great list of resources.

There is a lot of opinion flying around about this. In a nutshell, my opinion is that some awareness and action is better than a lot of ignorance and apathy, even if flawed. Awareness and compassion counts for a lot.

What's yours?

This week in the blogging world: (meaning I saw it this week, not that it necessarily appeared this week...)


- Video from White Dove Ministries - Josh Lindsey





- The Very Worst Missionary - The Tourist Gospel
"But here we are, the Church, huddled together in awe and fear of the big, scary world, wearing ugly-ass shoes and a stupid-ass hat, and talking like a bunch of foreigners - but we've got our fingers crossed that the people will see how we're so totally set apart, and then they'll come ask us for directions."


- My new problem with rap music - more gold from Jon Acuff. 


- Using “Ministry” to Avoid Real Life Responsibility 


On the blog: The list on this page most likely to be actually from this week - since I wrote it. Yet, also since I wrote it, probably covered by someone else years ago....


- Blogging through...Sharpening the Cutting Edge #3 
- Reformed Clay 
- What are we fasting for? Intro to Lent.

Total Recall - past posts to revisit: since the whole theme of this thing is being behind the times, a look into the past seems a good place to end.
