Testing

I think I stumbled on a way to upload a document and link it here.

Planner

Is Pursuits saveable as a single document? Or a document plus a calendar?

Poster

Here's what I sent in today. I think if you click on it you can see it large enough to tell what's going on (remembering that in real life it will be something like 32"x40". Let me know if you spot any really stupid typos! I remember looking at posters last year and being impressed by all the stuff everyone had done--and now looking back we've done a lot this year too--hopefully we'll inspire someone else!

Uploading Documents

We were talking this morning about ways to possible use a blog to do things like Pursuits. But an entire issue of Pursuits is way too long for a post, not to mention the fact that calendars wouldn't translate well! It looks like you can't just upload a document directly to blogger. It has to be stored somewhere else (say an under-used church website for example) and then linked to in a post... Doeos anybody know our username/password/authentication/etc information so I can try it out?

I added both of your names to the list of emails to notify every time someone puts up a new post. Let me know if you would like me to undo that! And I don't think it will notify about new comments, but I'm not sure...

David Crowder songs

David Crowder has some excellent songs that we might begin to learn and weave into services:

From the album "A Collision" —
Come and Listen
Here is Our King
Wholly Yours

From the album "Illuminate" —
Revolutionary Love
O Praise Him

From the album "Remedy" —
Never Let Go
Neverending
Glory of It All
Can You Feel It

He looks like a freak, but I love that guy anyway ...

And here is an example of a what a useful post might look like...

Musicians are meeting this Thursday at 6:15. We'd love to have you join us! If you aren't available, are there any songs in particular that you would like to see us use during this series on Revelation? Our ideas so far:


April 27--Rev. 5 "Look! A Lamb!"- PH 142 – All Hail the Power – isn’t that the one we could jazz up and has the cool bridge thing in between verses? Also 151 Crown him with many thorns
May 4--Rev.6-7, seals and scrolls PH 142 and 151 are listed for this scripture too.
May 11-Rev 8-11, trumpets
May 18-Rev 12-14, satanic trinity??
May 25-Rev 15-18, bowls of wrath Holy, Holy, Holy comes up again
June 1, Rev 19-20, final battle

I'd like to introduce you...

Sharon, this is a blog! Blog, say hi to Sharon. This took about three minutes to set up. (OK, 5 because I got distracted by looking at color options), but anyway its very simple. And you can look at it and see what a blog looks like :) But you might not want to go looking for too many more or next thing you know you will have spent all afternoon looking at little bits and pieces of people random thoughts! (Not that I would know anything about that...)
