I’m speaking at 2011 Wordcamp Detroit this weekend, a gathering of bloggers using the WordPress content management system. As a convenience for participants (and you), I’m posting here some links and resources I referred to.

(re)learning to linger

Maturing, married love is rooted in a shared story and refreshed by a new commitment, often in the full shadow of our failures. It involves learning to linger again.

Dear Wall Street banker

I’m not one who believes the government should take your money away. I believe you should give it away on your own. That's what Jesus told the rich young ruler.

save the date

I'm listing a couple of speaking engagements here. Partly so you can come if you are nearby and have time. And partly so you will think of me if you need a speaker sometime. I'm always interested in talking about writing, faith, family and, or course, Santa.

Telling the story in ways that don’t mislead or defraud is essential. Unfortunately, the story is often oversold and over sanitized. That always reflects bad leadership.
