I remember the biggest question in Halloween was always “where’s the good stuff?” We’d hit the different neighborhoods, scoping them out until we had a pretty good idea who was giving out the big candy bars. Now there’s something better….the code of halloween!
Out of candy. Giving out Taco Bell Sauce Packets.
Oh, oh. Dentist’s home.

I was giving some critique in the church marketing lab and through the process decided to just pull the images together for the person and make it available for him to use. Well…why not give those to you as well.
Nothing spectacular by any means…but free nonetheless and hopefully one or two of you can find […]

Well, I’ll be honest, I didn’t think I was going to like Twitter…but I gotta say, I’m a believer. Now, I’m not in Terry Storch’s camp…it’s not going to replace my blog but it certainly supplements it.

Ok, so I was going to write a post about Seth Godin’s new book Tribes as it relates to the church and the “tribes” within the church. While you can take many things from Seth’s various books and apply them to the church, this one could have been published by Zondervan.
I was then going to […]

I had the chance to have dinner with Erik Ticen last week…we talked about the usual - raising the bar in communication, design and visual communication vs. pretty pictures and then we got on the topic of church. What is church? What would Christ think of our definition of church? Of course one of our […]

I ran across this little tool when I was at the HOW Design Conference…I remain a big proponent of a tailored solution that fits your personality and resonates with you brand keeping everything consistent but it’s a tool worth looking at that can bring some dynamic content to your blog or website (without having to […]
