I stumbled across a new web application for twitter today.
It allows the person sitting at the computer screen to control what tweets show up on a live projector screen and what don’t. It has two columns, one for pending and one for live.
The tweets are sent in with a certain tag that you define ahead of time.
Then, the pastor (or whoever is speaking) can see the questions live on the screen behind them as the moderator approves them.
I wish I would have known about this for our last questions series!!

Kristin came back on Tuesday. That was nice. I can’t believe how much I missed her in 7 days. She’s the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me!
Kristin and I closed on our first house! I’m crazy excited but also crazy scared at the same time. I don’t have any tools or experience and I’m already thinking about how many “projects” I’m gonna have over the next couple of months.
I’ve realized I hate cars. My dang car broke down a couple of weeks ago and I finally got it fixed. It’s amazing how much it cost just to drive from one place to another. If they ever make a car that is indestructible I am definitely on board with that one.
Week #3 of the Questions series went amazing. Talking about dating and relationships is definitely one of my favorite things to talk about. I love having students question what society tells them is normal.
I received our housing location for the D.C. missions trip. I’m pretty dang excited! I’m really praying that this trip changes some students lives!
The parents here at Crossroads are just amazing. It never ceases to amaze me how open they are to helping in any and every way that we need them. I couldn’t ask for a better group of parents to partner with in ministry.
Next week is the final week of the Questions series as well as the final week of Wednesday night for the spring. We’re taking a break for the summer because of all the other activities and the fact that everyone leaves for vacations. If you haven’t seen the summer schedule yet then go check it out at http://www.crossroadsyouth.tv
Crossroads, I love being your youth pastor!

Kristin is in Oklahoma right now. I miss her. The house isn’t the same without her.
Molly, our dog, is a freak! She seems to go even crazier when Kristin is gone. But, she’s our dog – it’s expected that she’s crazy.
It’s the final week of classes this semester. I’ve got finals next week. I’m so glad this semester is over! As much fun as seminary is… I need a summer break.
The video interviews for graduation service are coming along nice. I’m excited about what the future holds for this group of seniors. At the same time, I’m gonna miss them!
I’ve been working on some new websites for the student ministries. You can check ‘em out at www.crossroadsyouth.tv
Week #2 of the “Questions” series went great! I love seeing new faces each and every week! I can’t wait for next Wednesday – the dating and sex week. If you haven’t submitted your question yet , get it done!
Crossroads students, I love being your youth pastor! You’re some of the coolest students I have ever met!
Our ministry season is pretty much ending until the fall. My volunteers need the break! They’ve worked so hard making the last 8 months go smooth. Thank you guys so much for accepting me and making the changes and transitions easy! We’ve accomplished a lot! I couldn’t do what I do without your help.
Kristin and I are closing on our first home on Tuesday! We’re so excited! Nervous… but excited.
