If you haven’t read these blog posts you seriously need to!

• Evolution of the megachurch – Megachurch = MegaAwesome! Perry Noble once twittered, “The church SHOULD be doing church better than Disney does Disney! They do it for a mouse…we do it for Jesus. We should care way more!”
• “Daddy… You Smell” – Made me laugh.
• What Will The Local American Church Look Like in 20 Years? – Very interesting topic that I think is in the back of a lot of Gen X and Y people’s minds right now. Read this post and discuss in Los’ comments.
• The Emergence of a Third Cullture World – This post made me, again, think of my friend Dan Beirne who has spent the last few years of his life living outside the U.S. in Namibia, Africa and in El Salvador. Interesting topic that I think we need to be increasinly aware of.
• Top 10 Reasons Why People Leave Your Church Website (& the 1 reason you want them to) – Some good tips here to help make your website more awesome and less not awesome!
• GigaPixel Photo of Barack Obama’s Inaugural Address – Awesomely huge picture of Obama’s Inaugural Address… see if you can figure out which guys are secred service agents sitting around the previous Presidents.
• Don’t Be Stupid: You Need to be Online – I’m sure that many of us (keeping in mind you’re reading a blog) agree that we need to be online… but seriously… look at those stats! Let’s not get content with our current church website… let’s be constantly making it better!

That’s all for now… more later!
