Wherein I lament the passing of one of the Christian Web's greatest and most popular Websites.

One year ago I interviewed for a job at Gospel Communications. There was an opening for a training specialist and I happily made it through the various rounds of interviews and reference checks. In the end, I was invited to Muskegon to visit the offices of GospelCom in order to give a trial-run 15-minute presentation to Brian Atkinson and his team of intrepid Web wonks. There were two other applicants before me, also giving presentations, showing their mad training skills. I didn't get the job.

At first I was both disappointed and pleased. I did a fair enough job with my presentation that I was invited (and paid!) to give a followup, expanded presentation at last year's

As previously noted, this is my week for presenting at GospelCom's meetup: "The Internet Ministry Conference."

I successfully captured audio for today's presentation: "Relationship Blogging." So as soon as I can get my audio editor software working, I'll upload it as an mp3 file, and I will also upload a flash version of the powerpoint file for your enjoyment as well.

I don't think there was any video of this presentation, so I'll spare you that!

Stay tuned for details.

Tomorrow I'll be giving my "Integrity on the Internet" presentation. The presentation has been updated from my earlier 1998 version. Hopefully It'll go well!

More later. But, meanwhile, for all who were interested in the books I mentioned, see:
