Sounds like a good time to build up the fire in the fireplace, sit back with my laptop and write a few new posts, or finish a book or three.

Along with the crazy weather, we’ve had a busy season in our lives as well. Our daughter was a cheerleader for basketball season, keeping us busy for several months. That’s finally come to an end, and now we are looking at spring activities on the horizon, if we can get past the ice and snow on the forecast.

It’s been a busy ministry season as well. With a lot coming up in the near future, a conference last week, and studies and classes and books to read and review… Whew! Life stays pretty busy, and only seems to get busier. That’s why it is so crucial to take some time to relax and rest on a regular basis. That’s one of the topics coming up in the Establishing Spiritual Disciplines series.

In case you missed them, here are my top seven posts for the month of February:

1. 6 Characteristics Of A Good Communicator
2. The Difference Between Purpose, Vision, and Mission
3. How To Take Notes While Reading The Bible
4. Why You Need To Develop A Philosophy Of Ministry
5. 4 Strategies For Making A Daily Routine Stick
6. Trying A New Bible Reading System
7. 3 Characteristics Of A Bad Communicator

Even though it’s been busy, I’ve been making a solid effort to write more. And, I’ve been trying to write more meaningful content. It’s been a challenge for me to improve, because I know where my goals lie and how badly I want to get there. I’m trying to keep an objective view, and I think I can see improvement.

This list is evidence of that. Over the past several months, several posts from the Foundations Of Youth Ministry series continue to show up on this list. I was worried about the fact that my newer content never seemed to make it. But over the past few months, I’ve seen a solid mix of both older and newer content make the list, stuff from my series called How To Develop A Daily Routine, and articles from my series on communication. That really excites me. That tells me that my efforts are paying off. Now I just have to keep it up.

My favorite post from February is from the series Establishing Spiritual Disciplines, and is called The Purpose Of Prayer. This is a series I’m really excited about, and am looking forward to the topics on the list.

Plus, there is a new blog on the horizon that I’m pretty excited about. That’s all I’ll say about it for now, but stay tuned for more info on that bit of juicy knowledge in the coming weeks.

Have a great month!
