Wow, you're one of only 3,644 people! I bet he personally reads every tweet from all of those people too. Rick has big heart and a lot of time on his hands.

Okay, yea, I'm a bit jealous that he isn't following me yet. :P

HI Bob, I went on one of those twitter surfs where one twitter page leads to another and another and another ...

well

what I wanted to ask is, do you think it's a bit hypocritical here:

Ed "I'm cooler than y'all" Young does a rant about Pastors chasing cool! Hmmmm, I don't know what I think on this, I need to sit down and work it out ...

I'd love to hear your thoughts Bob!

We are there to say it without hemming and hawing, without throat clearing and without shuffling, without propagandizing, proselytizing, or manipulating. We have no other task.
