That's right kids, I've  loaded up the truck and I'm moving to ...well, not anywhere near California but to my own domain.

mickholt.com

I am still going to call the blog "Pick A Direction and Go! it's just going to live somewhere else.

All new content - after this of course - will be posted there. I will work to get all of the content I have here moved over - even if it means cutting and pasting.

I have some more research to do on that aspect of the process.

So please help me spread the word and come visit me at mickholt.com

Dear Readers

You guys are why I do what I do. You are why I write. Sure I write for "me" but, and I thik this is true of anyone that puts words to paper - or screen, I want those words to be read. I want my words to be helpful, honest and from time to time humorous - OK, I want that one more often than not. Do I want you love my words and agree with everything I write - well of course I do - but here's the thing:

I KNOW YOU WON'T and I am OK with that.

Never Be Disappointed Again

We’re Only Human

Few things are as upsetting as expecting someone to do something and them not do it. To think that a person you know might behave in a particular way, perform a specific task, say a certain something and then not do it can leave you feeling as though your whole world is turned upside down; you’ve misjudged all mankind - and womankind for that matter.

Picking Your Direction with God

In the Beginning

 

We often start our relationship with Christ in a flurry of excitement and unexplainable joy. We’re anxious to tell our friends and family about the change in our lives. We don’t go to the places we used to go; we don’t do and say many of the things that we’re accustomed to doing and saying. Our interests change along with our desires.

Faith, God and One Million Dollars



A Matter of Faith

I am not sure if it is a cultural influence or not but I often find myself wondering how much faith I really have. Do I have enough?  Does God look at me with haughty derision and think, “If only he really believed.  He could do so much.” I mean, if I was really sold out, if I truly and honestly believe the things I think I believe, the things I write about, the things I learn and teach at church wouldn’t my life look different? Shouldn’t I be suffering the way Paul did? Peter? Jesus?
