Kicking someone in the back is never fun. At least not in church. But, yeah I can relate somewhat. I still roll with a notebook and a pen. And I look studious, too. I think..

But, yeah I can relate somewhat. I still roll with a notebook and a pen. And I look studious, too.

I wrote about it here (http://bit.ly/2bUgZr), but you can just check it out at <a href="http://411God.net" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://411God.net</a> They send you small devo txts, emails, or phone calls (whichever and whenever). It was extremely helpful when I was switching up my personal devo time from night to mornings. Was both a nice reminder and starting point to my quiet time.

I look up verses in YouVersion and read along with the pastor. I take notes in EverNote (http://evernote.com). As I'm taking notes I often copy/paste something I just wrote into Twitter and share it with a the community that goes way beyond my church's walls. Very useful and handy. We have 2.5 kids so space is precious. Keeping all this stuff on my BlackBerry frees up my hands before and after the service to keep my young children properly managed. peace | dewde Honestly, I've been using my BlackBerry as my bible and my notebook on sunday morning.

The idea of using YouVersion for the Bible on Sunday mornings is awesome. I love it. Why didn't I think of that? Evernote's nice - I've been experimenting with it for about a week. So far, I dig it, but I don't know if I'll stick with it. When there are notes I need to take on the go, or keep tracking of something, I normally just email it to myself. It's kind of a cheap way to use email, but it works. Ha, dude. The idea of using YouVersion for the Bible on Sunday mornings is awesome. I love it. Why didn't I think of that?

But so far, I'm not allowed. :( Instead I have to leave my shoe on my knee the whole service to form a sort of "Leg Desk" to hold my Bible and Notebook. (I do look very studious though.)
