May Referrers

Way back when I used to write my blog using Lotus Notes, I would regularly post how people stumbled their way onto this site. I always enjoyed looking at those lists and seeing the weird searches that brought people to my little part of the cyber world...

I just recently started tracking referrers on this Blog using eXTReMe Tracking. It's a pretty neat tool and provides some great statistics on how my site is doing.

So now I can start looking at how people found me again :) Here's the list for the past 3 weeks.
  • presseault: Yup. That's me. Surprisingly I came up as the number 2 spot on Google with that search. John Presseault comes up first... and that's my dad! Ok... now I gotta figure out how to beat him on that list :)
  • pastor kevin shepherd: Not quite... it's pastor Kevin Presseault :) Actually I still find it VERY weird when people call me Pastor Kevin... or Pastor Presseault... that just has too many Ps in it. Kevin will do just fine :)
  • ebible repair: I didn't realize that it was broken... if you haven't tried eBible.com yet then head over there! It's great. I still mainly use BibleGateway.com for my searches because they have more translations available. When eBible.com has all those translations (which I heard is coming soon!) then that will be my one stop shopping for Bible searching.
  • difference between a pastor and associate pastor: An associate pastor does whatever his senior pastor tells him to do :) Actually I'm reading a fantastic book called "Leading from the Second Chair" by Mike Bonem & Roger Patterson. It's a great look at how to live out your dreams for ministry while at the same time complementing and being a part of your senior pastor's dream for the ministry. A great resource for everyone who fills a role in churches (and even businesses) where your leadership falls under the leadership of someone else (and isn't that pretty much all of us???)
  • free ebible for ipod: eBible on an iPod? Not a bad idea... if you can read off that small screen. I have an iPod Nano... way too small to use as a reader.
  • Being an associate pastor: I LOVE IT!!! I hope you do to!
  • civil: You probably found my post about the comic book Civil War. Pick it up and read it!
  • simple description of krypton for kids: It's the planet where Superman was born :)
  • encourage new pastor: Do it! Especially if your new pastor had to move to a new city to be a part of your congregation. That means this family doesn't know anybody and are going through a TON of new changes in their lives.
  • amount of time to get passport: I guess that depends on the country :) I was quite fortunate to receive mine in time for my trip to California.
  • didnt get my passport on time: sorry to hear that! That's a bummer.
  • 3A: BINGO!!
  • Heritage College: That's where I go to school. Here is their website.
  • experiencing life together: This is an AWESOME small group study. We actually just finished our first six week study last night. And we're going to do the next one in September.
  • top 10 pastor blogs: Am I in the top 10?!??! Probably not but I can dream can't I? :)

Practical Atheist

Image
Over the past few weeks our church has been doing a preaching series called Practical Atheist. This is based on the book The Christian Atheist by Pastor Craig Groeschel. I've been blown away by how God has worked in the hearts of so many people over the past few weeks. Mind you, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Pastor Craig's ministry has had such a huge influence on my personal walk with Jesus so just is just a continuation of that blessing. This week we're probably going to hit the hardest topic for me to preach on, I Believe in God but I Pursue Happiness at All Costs. I'm going to be using Jesus' parable of the sower and look at how our pursuit of happiness causes us to miss out on truly how God wants from our lives. This topic hits me right between the eyes as I'm being open and honest with God about what allow to be entertainment or how I go about trying to be happy. Do I allow myself to be entertained by sin? Do I pursue the world's view ...

Wellness Journey Update

Image
  In early April 2020, I decided to take better care of my health. Actually, the decision was made on January 1st, 2020. It just took me time and a month of lockdown in my basement to get me to do something about it. My focus was to care for myself physically, emotionally/mentally, and spiritually. In the first year of the journey, I saw some significant changes. I dropped nearly 60 pounds of weight, reduced back pain, and began sleeping through the night for the first time in my adult life! I also did some great work with my Christian therapist to strengthen my mental health. I began deepening my walk with Christ through strengthening devotions and intentional mentoring. As I experienced these blessings, my hope was to pass along these blessings to others. I became certified as a DDPY Fitness Level 1 Instructor and a FastTrack coach.  While there were blessings, there were also challenges. Particularly in the area of whether my involvement in particular exercise programs was ...

Back from Catalyst!

Image
WOW!!!! That's all can say right now! Yesterday experience at Catalyst was just incredible! And I gotta admit... God really wrecked me! I've never felt closer to God than I did on my knees yesterday, crying in his presence! I'm still processing all that God had to say to me through this event. I'll be blogging about it next week as it all becomes clearer. I'm so grateful to everyone involved in putting on Catalyst One Day! Thanks to Andy Stanley and Craig Groeschel for just bringing it!! I was so encouraged and minister to. Picked up Craig's new book, The Christian Atheist. Started reading it this afternoon! Was awesome to meet him and others from the LifeChurch.tv team. Their ministry has been such a wonderful blessing to me in my personal walk with God. When people ask who pastors me, Craig Groeschel is on the top of that list. Praising God today for all that he has in store for me and my journey with Him! (Picture of Danielle and I with Craig...
