Check out this post from Gary Lamb, on “Thoughts Keeping Him Up”. It contains thoughts that are keeping him awake at night as they prepare to launch their first satellite campus. Here a few good ones.

• What is the bottom line cost we can launch campuses for without compromising our vision, style, and excellence?
• How quickly can I launch campuses?
• How important is the role of campus pastor?
• How do you duplicate the buzz and energy of our main campus?

Check out his post for more of his thoughts and questions about it.

• I am really jivin on Web 2.0 right now. It is just where I am at. Twitter, Facebook, Blogging, Flickr. I love the feeling of always being connected with others.
• God is doing some amazing things in my heart right now. I just don’t feel worthy of what He is leading me to. I mean I am lousy sinner and yet He is calling me to help His kingdom, how awesome is He!
• There is substantial buzz this week about a new e-book “Facebook For Pastors“
• I sent out some Thank You’s this week one of them going to the author of the post that prompted this, Craig Groeschel.
• Read this post, and this post, in order. Marty is awesome, and he really challenged me with this this week.
• And finally, today I am going to be sending my resume out to about 5 or 6 churches/ministries to follow after the vision God is putting in my heart right now. WOW! God is amazing and it is totally in his hands. So please pray for me.
