My brother recently began attending Lifechurch.tv in Tulsa. It has been awesome for his family. I have been encouraged big time by their ministry. Below is a blog from their pastor, Craig Groeschel.
A friend of mine pointed me to this blog which has assembled "10 Golden Lessons from Steve Jobs" .
It is worth the read. I'm not endorsing the quotes or commentary, but I do think there a few things that we can learn from. Here are a couple of interesting excerpts:
9. Steve Jobs said: "We're here to put a dent in the universe. Otherwise why else even be here?"
While I imagine Jobs' quote was not aimed at spreading the Gospel, I certainly appreciate the "think big, think significant" vision.
6. Steve Jobs said: "We think basically you watch television to turn your brain off, and you work on your computer when you want to turn your brain on."
This quote is actually funny to me and I am surprised it made the top 10 Golden list. I remember when he made that quote and it was in context to a question where Jobs was asked about the convergence of the computer and the television. He dismissed the concept saying that it would not happen. It is a bit humorous to see AppleTV and all of the TV integration(aka Frontrow) into Apple's software now. I dugg up a link to article that puts the quote in context…you can read it here.
That hit me and lit my fire. We can learn a lot from those being successful and turn that drive into serving God and changing our world Sounds like a plan.
John 3:17 (nlt) --- God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.
