Fridays are just not like other days. For a lot of people, the work week is winding down and the freedom of the weekend looms large. For those that work in local ministry, it’s Friday and Sunday’s coming… which means there’s lots of details to be taken care of.

I’ve decided to try something different on Fridays. For one thing, I’ve been asked to do some book reviews and would like to do just that. I don’t know that I’ll offer a review every Friday, but Friday seems like a good day for that. (Of course that means I’m actually going to have to read some books… or color them, as the case may be)

I also like it when people point me to other blogs that are interesting reads, so I’d like to return the favor. Sometime I need to update the list I have in the sidebar. There are a number of blogs that I read that aren’t listed there, and some of those listed have fallen dormant. Feel free to point out to me blogs that fall into either category.

Let me kick things off by pointing out a new blogger: Mark Edge. Mark and I were roommates for six, count them, six years in college. (All right, stop laughing… we both got multiple degrees. He’s now Dr. Edge, by the way) He and Judy got married exactly one week before my sweet wife made the mistake of her life and married me. Then the four of us worked in Argentina together for six years. Somehow Mark survived all of that. He now preaches for the Shiloh Road Church of Christ in Tyler, Texas. Mark recently started a rather unique blog. He blogs once a week, but what he writes is broken into multiple sections. He writes as much or more in that one post than I do in a week. I suggest you take a look at his blog. You can find it here: http://markedgeremarks.blogspot.com/

Have a great weekend!
