I wanted to take a moment to share with you what we’ve been working on the past few months. Bizzyness hasn’t gone anywhere, but it has been a little over a week since our last update, so I wanted to drop a note. For the past few months I’ve been heads down working on a variety of projects but today I want to highlight my baby! Introducing Social Saints!

The story behind Social Saints
In the winter of 2007 I started a very long conversation with God about my purpose and what he would have me to do. After months of prayer and dialogue I received my answer. Simply put God wants me to use my talents to empower others. Since I’ve always considered myself a God Fearing Internet Marketer, I decided to combine those two truths into something more real. The result is an internet marketing consultancy designed to assist faith-based organizations and non-profits in the development of strong, relationship-oriented, online communities.

You may recall from an earlier discussion question our conversation about the negative effects recessions can have on marriages.  We had a pretty decent discussion about it, but the issue hasn’t solved itself.  Today on Oprah, M. Gary Neuman will discuss the ways in which any couple can recession-proof their marraiges.  I highly recommend every couple, married or unmarried, catch this episode.  We will definitely be watching!  Be sure to stop by after the show and leave your comments.
