TK Starts A blog
There are a number of things I have never done before in my life--all 44 years of them.... Like hunting, sky diving, or bunge jumping for that matter. Not that I am afraid to, I just haven't gotten around to doing them. Other things are a little more cost prohibitive--like seeing a Manchester United game at Old Trafford in England or taking the whole family to Hawaii.
I don't want to make it sound like I haven't had some great opportunities.
I have been blessed to lead high school ministry teams all over the US and love it. I have a wife who is excellent at it too, so that makes it that much more enjoyable. And then you get to hear the stories of God using people you worked with when they were growing up--people following God's lead and going into full-time ministry. The Andy Wirt's, The Andy Brightbills, The Doug Kegarises, The Mark Artrips... I've also been to World Cup soccer games, even the 1994 Final at the Rose Bowl and to Game Two of the NBA finals when Larry and Magic were playing each other.
But one thing I am going to try doing that I have never done before in my life is to start a blog. I can't promise this is going to be a very good one to read, or that I am going to be good at it, or that I will even enjoy it. But as God puts things on my heart, maybe it can start some discussions that will be worthwhile for the Kingdom.
So there you have it. Now, I can start planning on taking my family to Hawaii or checking out the costs for tickets to a Man U game...

Let me be the first to welcome you to the world of blogging. It's a fun ride and the idea of writing about whatever you want to write about is very appealing. I myself am not very consistent at keeping mine up and I am never very good at posting thought-proviking posts, but I do enjoy reading and commenting on other people's blogs, so I'm looking forward to more from you. Go Cubbies in 2007!

Great first post, TK! I'm only disappointed I didn't make the list, you know, "the Trevor Decks..." You know what I have to say to that - "You're fired!"
And I also noticed while reading about you that CE National means Church Effectiveness? I didn't know that had changed. Leave the country for 6 months and look what happens!
Here's my best blogging advice, as given to me by my wife as I was struggling with my own blog. Don't be intimidated by your audience, and just be you. ...and it's ok if you don't have anything to say some days.
Have a great blog!

As long as you never mention the Pittsburgh Steelers, I will be an avid reader. But then again, if your ministry is putting out more Andy Brightbills, then maybe you should be banned from the blogosphere.
