I was graciously given a MacBook Pro and am in the market for protecting my new toy...um...I mean computer. I then remembered, "Hmmm doesn't Fred have some ebusiness or something?" I'm glad I saw this! Heading over to HPP now.

I appreciate your thoughts as well. BTW - I completely let it slip yesterday, as we were obviously a bit distracted ... HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! Love you! FRED Hey -

You can re-subscribe on the right sidebar any time … thanks, Dad! I appreciate your thoughts as well.

BTW – I completely let it slip yesterday, as we were obviously a bit distracted … HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

Love you!

If there's a problem, it's his problem and not yours. I sensed no "shove", no "push", and certainly no intent to "spam" anybody. So if this so-called friend was really a friend, he'd have known your heart was not to do what he accused you of doing. Rather, he revealed his heart quite clearly. By the way, I hit the wrong button apparently, 'cause I got a message that I had asked to "un-subscribe" and would be deleted, which is definitely NOT what I intended to do.

I spent about a half hour bantering back and forth with a friend on "FaceBook". He was ticked off that I "spammed" him. See, I also "twittered" to my friends, and asked them to checkout the new HPP Twitter feed, which included that DVD deal. I don't intend to "twitter" my friends every day with a new deal on my e-biz ... not by any means. It was a simple tweet to say "hey friends, I've started a new twitter account for my biz, and feel free to follow it if you'd like". Well, Twitter updates my FaceBook status ... so, as far as this friend was concerned, he saw the "ad" in this friend's timeline, and said "no offense, but I'm gonna remove you as a friend if you are going to spam". It struck a nerve with me .. .for a few reasons, one, accusing me of spamming him, two .. for posting that publicly on my wall. We bantered back and forth, him telling me he didn't care about my twitter, email updates, and didn't sign up for him, and had he known I'd be spamming news about my business, he would've have signed up. I finally said "no love lost, just don't add me as a friend, then". I was already in a sensitive place, as I was in the car on the way up to a memorial service ... so, yeah - it was a tough exchange. Then, I get your comment. It made my day man. Of course, you probably actually took the time to read it, and see that I had no intention of abusing my blog and personal twitter feed every day ... it was an invite. I appreciate your grace, and your affirmation. Thanks, bro - it means a lot! FRED Billy,

I buy very little and if I do buy, I go for used first. But I have to say I really appreciate this post. I also believe it is 100% a ministry related post. You are a guy in paid full-time ministry but you also tent make as well. Tons of ministry guys are in this position. Tons of guys tent-make full-time and don't get paid by the church. I would probably like to see more posts on this blog about what you do to provide for your family while still working for Jesus full time. I think it's very relevant.
