Messy Messages

I don't believe in accidents. On Thursday, I'm connecting with Shawn Michael Shoup, a local youth pastor here in Rapid City. We've never met in person. But what's cool is that he and I both preached an eerily similar message this past Sunday in two different churches in ...

I Totally Saw Him Coveting My Ox

If you like this picture, then you'll enjoy the website, The Brick Testament. It's run by a dude ("The Rev." Brendan Powell Smith) who takes legos and creates parodies of Biblical events. Quite funny and clever. It's not disrespectful but just because it's done with Legos doesn't mean its ...

What Yahoo! Doesn’t Value

Scanning through some values of innovative businesses, I ran across this interesting site from Yahoo! Their values statement is Excellence, Innovation, Teamwork, Community, Customer Fixation, and Fun.  While those are great, it didn't really stand out from any other business.
