I have this thought I have tweeted out a couple of times that talks about people who blog what is trendy versus what is forward thinking.

The original idea behind the post is from my whole adage that quality of content should be what drives a blog, not the traffic. As soon as it becomes about traffic, your site no longer has a target and the content typically goes towards puff pieces.

The hot new mobile game out there is Pokemon Go for both Android and iOS. It’s part Augmented Reality (AR) as you can catch the Pokemon with a Pokeball while seeing reality behind them. It’s also part geolocation as you have to go find the Pokemon, gyms, and other pieces.
But, this also has some great applications for ministries.

Martin Luther King Jr.
We will be reading through Nehemiah 4:1-9
Nehemiah has sweated out the planning of the material for the wall, the traveling to a whole new area he had not been for years, and beginning to fulfill the dreams God had imparted on him with efficiency. At this point, things are smooth sailing, maybe too smooth.
