It was a wonderful treat to tune into the Techology Show this morning and watch a terrific interview that the guys did with Mark Batterson about his new book, “The Circle Maker“.

Thankfully they post all the episodes on YouTube, so I can reshare this interview below. I received “The Circle Maker” a couple of weeks ago and have only begun to read it and have already highlighted some incredible things within its pages. Stay tuned for a full review eventually here on the blog.

Batterson’s book is currently on sale on Amazon. And the legend of the original circle maker, Honi comes from this book.

I’ve been in the office for two days after a week-away. I am trying to bite-off small tasks and complete them one by one. For instance, desk-management was one of this morning’s goals.

Not bad:

What does YOUR “first days back” routine look like in your home or your workplace?

As soon as Jess informed me this morning that there was a fresh layer of snow on the ground, I knew what I would be doing as soon as I arrived at the church parking lot in my rear-wheel-drive Ford Ranger pickup.

DONUTS.

I had my fun for a minute or two, parked, unlocked the church doors, and then got settled into my office. I noticed I had a voicemail, too:

I laughed and laughed. And then I called Tom back and he thanked me for the morning’s entertainment as he and his wife sipped coffee watching me in the parking lot!

Some more free Kindle eBooks for that new Kindle you got under the tree last weekend…

I have no idea how long these will remain free, so grab them quickly if you’re interested!
