I’ll try to keep this one short but personal.

Well, first of all: If you’re reading this, thanks. I hope you’ve found these postings useful, inspirational, or something positive. ‘Cause now, things are gonna change up a bit.

Over the last 10 months — particularly on Mondays and Wednesdays — you’ve been enjoying devotional reiterations of lessons from my small-group series Growing Out: From Disciples to Disciplers. And again, if you’ve enjoyed them, click that link I just posted and show Growing Out some love (or get some free review copies and tell yr friends — details, again, here).

But now I’ve exhausted that significant motherlode of content. So from here, it’s all new, baby. You’ll either find reviews of brand-new releases here, or excerpts from the work-in-progress, Lay It Down. You’ve already been seeing pieces from the latter on Fridays, and thanks for the positive feedback so far; it tells me I’m on the right track. But now it’s time to stop coasting and get serious, for any number of reasons. In short, you’ll be encouraged to lay down a whoooole lot more in the days to come.

So here we go. Stay tuned, and thanks again for all yr support. — Carl
