Looking for Lurkers
Forbes list of the World's Billionaires, Making a Difference in the World, Uncategorized June 18th, 2008
I was at a meeting tonight at my church where we discussed starting a new Saturday night service. As we discussed some possibilities, one of the things that came out was designing a service around needs that weren’t be met in other more traditional churches or services. One idea explored was to survery a few people, try some different things, and invite people at some level to give input on creating an experience that would keep them coming back. In that spirit, I’d like to hear from some of you including ”lurkers” who read but NEVER comment on this blog. You know who you are and it’s time to come out of the closet! If you don’t think you are a lurker ask yourself if you have been to the site more than once but you haven’t commented. If that is you, now is your time. What would you like me write about in this blog that fits under the theme of living rich? Would you like personal stories of people living rich in the ways that matter? How about some video clips? or more pictures? A little humor thrown in for good measure? Exerts from my upcoming book? What? Tell me, tell me!
Two more comments:
1) I saw my buddy Charles Brinkley tonight. I love C.B. If I am speaking in town, he is there. He’s one of the millions, thousands many regular readers of by blog. Seems Charlie has a high school reunion coming up and WAS thinking about losing a few lbs for his “friends”. For some weird reason, my blog entry woke him up at 2:30 am recently (Charles we must get you reading something with more meat!). He wrote that my comments made him “think” about the reason he was losing the weight. He actually added a lot more depth to things I was exploring that day (read his response here). Think about this question: What are you making the changes in your life, at work, or in your health plan? Are they for you or for others? See if you can uncovered the reason for your changes.2) I j heard about a new social networking site for charities and charitably inclined individuals. Check it out at IsThereSomethingICanDo.com. It was started by Akon and Peter Buffett, son of Richest Man in America Warren Buffett. Looks like it’s worth a look…even for a lurker!
