Sincere Apologies

For it has been to long since I have blogged, I bid your forgiveness, oh blogging world.  Alas, the toils of life and work have sorely separated me from my abilty to write in leisure.

 Soon shall there be writings again, however, poor (which normally is so) they are!

Until that time, click thy mouse o’er and on these links.

• My Friend Seth has a question he needs answered about the church and world hunger
• Non-Friend Seth Godin has a great post about talking to Apple Support

Be sure and check out the upcoming MinistryTECH Conference in Oklahoma City, April 3-4.  Going to be a lot of amazing sessions and great people to meet. Registration is almost sold out!

I unfortunately will probably not make it… but…

The Church IT Spring Roundtable is the following Saturday April 5th.  Jason Powell has all the information you need.  I’ll be at this one.  Registration is$15..  It’s gonna be worth it and I’ll be there!  Not that I come anywhere near THE Jason.

I started my Domain Controller server change-overs today.  I have two old servers running as DC’s that I am replacing..  I didn’t get started ’til 3p.m. and just now calling it quits for the day.

Will work more on tomorrow.

My plan is to be able to just have to do any troubleshooting on Monday, besides switching over to the new Cisco 3560 I have in to replace an old Dell 12-port gig switch and a Cisco CE 500 12-port gig.  This will give me more control and features..

Thanks to Dave Mast and all the other citrt guys on the idea of how to deploy the DC’s among the other help..  VM here I come!

So it’s been a few days since I last posted..ok more than a few.

Happy New Year to all.

I was hoping that this new year would start out alright, but the Buckeyes didn’t feel it was a good year for that.  Granted, they weren’t supposed to have gone anywhere this year, so I still have to give them some credit there.

I am currently in Peoria, IL at the Sharepoint training that Mindsharp is doing for the Church IT Roundtable.  Jason Lee and the Northwoods Community Church staff, as well as Fady from Willowcreek,  have done an amazing job on getting this set up and hosting. More on this later.

Anyone know of a like widget to post directly into Wordpress?  

This past week, I had the privelege of attending the Church IT Roundtable in Kansas City at Church of the Resurrection. Clif Guy, Amy Facemire, and crew all did an amazing job of preperation and hosting. I took away a lot just from how everything was handled. Thank you all very much!

Some of the highlights include being able to meet many of the people whose blogs I’ve been reading, Jason Powell, Tony Dye, and of course Clif and the crew; the topic bizzare provided a great area to find exactly the topic/vendor I wanted to talk with and ask questions; and just the fellowship was worth the entire trip. One of the amazing things to me is that we all, from all the different backgrounds, can come together in unity for the Lord. I do thank the Lord for that! I look forward to the next RoundTable

I wasn’t up to par on Thursday, so I talked far less than I normally would. Getting up at 4am to drive to KC on 3 hours of sleep really took my energy away. I got home about midnight, which included a nice visit from Kansas Highway Patrol around Iola.

I was very sad that I couldn’t make Wed’s sessions. From what I can tell off of David Szpunar’s blog there were many great topics brought up. I think I will go through a few this week and make my own comment additions to them.

On a whole other note, I watched the first two episodes of Chuck.. It was alright.. I’ll probably watch more, but I don’t know how good it will do.
