– I’m back online, after being off the grid for nine days—the longest I’ve been in a state of bloglessness since I started this nasty habit on June 9, 2005. 

– In DC last week for our Every Nation North American Conference. I get to work with some really smart, cool, talented, and hard-working people. Conf messages by Brett Fuller, Stephen Mansfield, Jim Laffoon, Rice Broocks, Russ Austin, Lynette Lewis, Cynthia Fuller, me, and Morgan Stephens are being edited and will be available anytime now on Every Nation’s main site and on the Every Nation Podcast site.

– Teaching at Every Nation Campus Ministry’s School of Campus Ministry in Nashville this week. My topic? You guessed it—DISCIPLESHIP.

– Trying desperately to finish an article on discipleship for Ministry Today Magazine. Missed my deadline last week—hope to finish sometime this decade. Good thing Marcus Yoars is such a patient editor. Check out his blog—good stuff for spiritual leaders.

– Just 23 days til our Victory @ 25 celebration—fastest 25 years in the history of the world. Time sure flies when you are having fun! Really looking forward to the “Victory’s Got Talent” part. Don’t let me down!

– Check out the new and improved stevemurrell.com. Special thx to master web guru, Danny VanOmmen.

– I’m now on Twitter—I’m not always going anywhere—but you are welcome to follow.
