From Robots to Reality

Thank you for your prayers.

That phrase is a remnant from the
very beginning of my Friday emails
in September 2006.

I sent that first email to six people
who agreed to pray for me every day.
Three of those people still read this email every week.
And one prays with us every day.

Twenty years is a really good run.

God is calling me to lay down the Friday email
and devote myself to other things.
It's been a source of grief
but also relief.

This email was the backbone of Belonging House,
and it has helped define my job.
And it built an amazing global community.
It is scary letting it go.

I am relieved that I will be able to move on
from the battle over email delivery.
Robots are now deciding who receives emails,
and it is getting harder and harder to get
my work to your inbox.

I am also relieved that my energy
can now focus on the Revelation study:
The Apocalypse for Artists.
We are also forming an underground
training program for the next generation of leaders
for our community.

I will still be writing and teaching,
and all of that will be available on our page
belonging.house.
There are over 400 posts there,
and about 275 messages on libsyn.
That's a lot of stuff to read and listen to.

And we are creating a book of the best of the Friday emails.

The big change is moving to a monthly postcard.
Sign up here if you want to get a piece of FIRST CLASS MAIL!
These do cost more than the Friday Email to produce,
so a monthly gift would be a help:
there is a $5 monthly button Zeffy if you want to pitch in.

The theme for 2027 is Get Real.
Real Connection,
Real Mail,
Real Relationships,
Real Disciples.

December 10 will be my last Friday email.

Thanks for your prayers and for reading.

He Never Fails.
