Who is Out There?

Who is Out There?

24. Sep, 2008 33 Comments

So my sitemeter is telling me around 220 of you are out there checking my blog out on a regular basis. I think that’s pretty crazy, but I’m glad you’re here!

Take a quick minute to introduce yourself and what you do.

Also, let me know things that keep you coming back, or things you think I should write more (or less!) about.

Look forward to “meeting” you!

    Hi! Love your blog. I’m over media and marketing – which might turn into Communications Director now :-) - for my church and I do web development for a few ministries. Your blog and others really bless me. You know the times when the Lord calls you to do something you REALLY don’t think you can do? Well, I’m your girl. As soon as I found your blog and others, I realized that I don’t have to re-invent the wheel, and that God really does bless you through men (and women!) Thanks so much. Be Blessed.

    I’m Jerod Clark.
    I work at Back to God Ministries in Palos Heights, IL as an outreach media consultant.
    We met briefly before a keynote at Echo. I was one of the many who harassed you about the “Death of the Bulletin” pickup by CMS.
    I just think you have good thoughts on church marketing and communications. Plus it’s good to know other folks in the Chicago area.
