Mondays W/ Mitch

“I wanted to get a parrot, but I got a tape recorder instead. It’s like a parrot who doesn’t fly away. You don’t have to worry about a tape recorder just suddenly leaving, in the name of freedom.”

so Mark Batterson over at evotional.com. wrote a book called In a Pit With A Lion On A Snowy Day. He posted on his blog that anyone who will read his book and do a blog review could get a free copy, well I’m all about good books, and free stuff so I shot anContinue reading “In a Pit with a Lion”

You Know It’s Bad when A Seminary Goes Against the Bible

Paul said don’t forbid speaking in tongues, but this SBC seminary must have missed it. Read it here

Wednesdays W/ Wright

“Did you sleep well?” “No, I made a couple of mistakes.”

Speaking of Word of Mouth Marketing

So I’m sitting here manning the phones at the good ole’ C&B. And we have been getting tons of calls for a foot locker survey, what I have discerned from the confused callers thus far is that if you take the survey foot locker will send out gift cards. What a great idea. And theContinue reading “Speaking of Word of Mouth Marketing”

I’m creating an new feature for mondays. Mitch Hedberg is arguably one of the funniest comedians of all time so every monday I will post a joke from the late great mitch. “I bought myself a parrot. The parrot talked. But it did not say, “I’m hungry.” So it died.” Stay tuned for Wednesdays with Wright

I used to always want to be other people, or have their ministry or their giftings. But God has reallyContinue reading “Risk-a-phobia”

Friendship Matters

So we are doing this new series at Creekside about friendship. And, it’s a different kind of series because Don, Dan and I are all talking about friendship both week. It’s going to be fun. What I’m really praying for though is that folks would really see that their friendships are valuable and that relationshipsContinue reading “Friendship Matters”

Hmm I don’t know

So Google is buying YouTube.com and this might seem like a really great idea, but might it also just be a way of google eliminating the competion? Google already has a video service. By acquiring youtube, they could really just beef up Google Video. But in the end does it really matter? No. Speaking ofContinue reading “Hmm I don’t know”
