Came across a neat twitter today called @Tweetvo.  Every day you get a devo in 140 characters or less that you can text or tweeter to others.  It’s a great tool for youth ministry.  Here is just one sample from Feb. 27th.  Love what it says:

Christian convictions vary & thatz OK*B Tru 2 wut God convix U about & let God convict others*Your job is 2 luv & let th Spirit convict

Wish more people would follow this – including myself.  So easy to take your own convictions and impose them on others but that is not what God instructs us to do.

Headed to Springfield, Missouri, tonight for an event.  Last year I read a great book by Ron Hall and Denver Moore titled Same Kind of Different As Me. Outstanding book about the deep friendship that developed between Ron and Denver.  Denver was a homeless man who met Ron when Ron and his wife began volunteering at the local homeless shelter.  It was his wife’s idea and passion but it truly changed Ron’s life.   Tonight they are speaking in Springfield, Missouri, at an event to support the local homeless shelter in Springfield, Victory Mission.  I’m so looking forward to hearing them in person.
