Getting started...

I've wanted to start a blog for some time. Today I've made the commitment. I'm titling my blog Mile Markers. As the pastor of Crossroads Church, I often reference the "journey" metaphor and if life is a journey then these posts will be the mile markers I leave along the way. I hope they will inspire and encourage all who take the time to read them. 
President William Henry Harrison delivered the longest Inaugural address of any U.S. President in history. 1 hour 45 minutes in a snow storm! He went on and on about what he would accomplish as president. A month later he died. (Many believe the time out in the cold on his Inauguration day contributed to his death!) I say, instead of standing around in the cold talking about what we're going to do this year, let's just get busy doing it! It's 2009 - It's a brand new year - Let's make the most of it!
