Wednesday Morning Run-Down

• Found these great little books called Fifty Lessons Learned from Harvard Business Press. Just $10. Well designed and strong content. I'm taken with them.
• Stayed at the Ace Hotel in NYC. Posh. Uber clean. And the staff was bend-over-backwards helpful. I'm sold.
• Feel bad for Gray Powell, an engineer at Apple, who left a prototype iPhone on a bar stool on March 18. Another customer found it and tried to return it to Apple, but no one took him seriously. But Apple knew the device was missing and by the next day had remotely wiped its data
• Love monoslideshow.com but I don't want to pay for it.
• Found a pair of fake glasses that's a USB drive. Perfect for STORY's theme: Communicating the Unseen.
• This looks like a great book. Great website for sure.
• Here's a "did you know?" In 1981 Broadway superstar Kristen Chenoweth sang, "I'm Four foot Eleven and I'm going to Heaven" at the Southern Baptist Convention.
• This is the week when thousands of church planters and their families descend upon Disney World under the guise of the Exponential Conference. Ahh, I miss that.
• Sweet Moses this is beautiful. I want a church-house.
• Whiteboard's last discounted rate ends April 30!
• Heard Twitter's founder Jack Dorsey talk about the new Square Up. Pretty soon, we won't be using cash with each other. We'll be swiping each other's credit cards.
• I want Church in the Making to be a 10 year success. That's the beauty of a church planting book. It can affect generations of planters. Hoping this one does.
• There is now a Kindle version of the book.
• Visiting Chicago next week for a meeting exclusively with set designers for STORY.

yea ben back on the 12th I did a quick review of the art of the idea because I inadvertently picked it up in the Cape Town book store not knowing Hunt was from South Africa. I really did the post to push his website. Is that about the coolest book website ever?

[Ben Arment]

i'd buy the book on the website alone. awesome

I really wouldn't want a grave yard in my yard ;)
But it was a neat house.

[Ben Arment]

How dare you reveal our Exponential secret Ben :-)

Church planter code requires you to keep a few secrets.
