My book…

Date March 9, 2006

Here’s a screenshot of my book. It’s more of a 50 page booklet or manual on small group leadership, but let’s call it a book for now since i’ve always wanted to write one.

There’s a zoom function on Microsoft Word that lets you see all of your pages. None of it is legible of course, but I just like looking at it and saying to myself, ‘look at what you did’.

It still needs some editing, and is by no way complete, are books ever? I wouldn’t say it’s an even effort throughout, and like an artist, I know the parts that I slaved over and what I rushed through. Anyhow, it’s good enough for a school project, for now.

Just one more major paper and a speaking engagement to go, and I’ll be able to start sleeping again monday.

    Good one Lon!
    Hope sleeps comes quickly and that your brain adapts to having nothing to do. I hope your speaking thing goes well. What are you speaking on…the same subject as your book?

    Blog and let us know it went…

    Go well,
    N.

    Hello all, thanks so much for dropping by and the words of encouragement!

    I’m speaking for a workshop at an annual youth conference here in toronto. I’ve been doing it the past four years. the one on Monday’s about ‘the Message of Jesus’. Does it get any broader?

    I’ll definitely post about it.

    As a life group coordinator of some kind, I’m always up for reading your ideas if that’s ever a possibility.

    Hey all yes, i\’ll definitely share stuff from the manual… now that people are asking about it i\’m getting a bit shy/embarrased by some of it! I\’m overdue on my paper now, as darn relationships had to take precedence. i\’ll be posting again soon. thanks for checking in!
