Question:
What’s been your favorite post? Why?
Congrats Luke! LaDonna and I enjoy your posts very much. We were missing the “Weekend Updates” and was glad to see it back recently. I think my favorite (well, most impactful–not sure I like being ‘called out’, but…) post was “The Obvious Secret to Christian Leadership”. As I said at the time, the post is sadly needed and convicting; a much needed daily reminder. Keep up the great work, Luke!
