Dewde-spotting

June 17, 2009 by chris in General

You may have spotted me making my rounds on the Internet this week. First, one of my posts was picked up as an article for Transparent Christian Magazine, a site run by Jason Elkins. Quite an honor.

Then this morning I discovered that a comment of mine won a contest over at Stuff Christians Like. The contest was to write a descriptive profile for your favorite Christian stereotype.

God, as it were, never seems to seek out the healthy, happy, successful types.

(except me)

So yeah. Busy week. How's it going for you?

Look Ma, I'm Fame-ish!

Exactly how messed up do you have to be to allow me to guest-post on your blog? As messed up as the kids over at ChurchCrunch, apparently. I was accepted into a group blogging project. The idea is that 16 different people read the same book and report on one chapter each. My guess is that by the time you've read 16 different perspectives on 16 different chapters of one author's book, your brain will be so soupy that you'll wish you'd just read the stupid book yourself instead. BUT WAIT! Before you do that, meander over and read my article on chapter 3 first.

In all seriousness, thanks for the opportunity John. You run a good show. I'm proud to have been a part, and I can't wait to read all the other authors' posts.

My Arrest Was The Best Thing That Could Have Happened

I've shared with you that my arrest was the best thing that could have happened. I don't change that belief. I ask that you judge me as a man, not as a sex offender. That doesn't define me. It's something I did. And believe me, I am not trying to minimize that. It's horrible and something I can't imagine doing again.
