I'm starting a new series on the blog called, "What Does Your _____ Say About You?" I'm going to highlight some of the things we may not think about when we consider communication. However, this is especially important as we consider what kind of Christain example we are as we go through our day. Here is an article I wrote a while back for Examiner.com. So...What does your Facebook Page Say About You? Are You a Good Christian Example on Facebook? By JoJo Tabares “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part...
What’s a comfort zone? I think I forgot again. I'll have to go look that up. Let's see...Comfort zone, noun, "the level at which one functions with ease and familiarity." Hmmm... I grew up all over the U.S.- always the new kid on the block. When I was 2 weeks old, I moved from Colorado to Florida. We lived in too many places to count there and, in just two years, we moved again after my sister was born. Settling down in N.Y. for eight whole years, we lived in an apartment and two different houses. I went to two of every school except for college.

Christian Comedian Tim Hawkins invites us to look deeper into the meaning of the song, Do You Hear What I Hear? It never occurred to me before, but he's right. That song doesn't make as much sense to me as it once did. If you need another giggle this Friday, here is your dose of Friday Funnies with Tim Hawkin's take on Do You Hear What I Hear? You'll never hear it quite the same way again! x x If you know someone who is stressing about the shopping, send them this link and give them a giggle too.

Tracy Ruckman from Write Integrity Press will be sharing on the Art of Eloquence Facebook fan page this Birthday Bash half hour. Here is what she is offering as a prize for this half hour’s contest: Which Witch? is for middle-grade readers.

We screened it with parents and kids before we published it, and the parents thought it might be “too churchy” while the kids didn’t think that at all. The kids made comments like, “It taught me how to stand up to bullies, and how to pray...
A while back, I posted, Did you really want to say THAT on Facebook? so when an obscure Facebook "friend" posted this on my wall, the idea for Did you really want to DO that on Facebook? was birthed. It happens occasionally on Facebook. I call it the I've Got a Christian Cause so the Ends Justifies the Means Disease. This is where people send you a friend request and then never interact with you.
