Here's a portion of a sermon on John 11. Don't you love how weird I look in this freeze frame? It's my imitation of what Lazarus looked like when he came out of the tomb.
I’m a follower of Jesus Christ. I live in Gaithersburg, Maryland, with an amazing wife and three wacky, fun kids. I'm a pastor at Covenant Life Church. I’m also a writer.
My friend Donald Miller shares a helpful tip for writers: get a kitchen timer. Don explains, "When I have two or three writing assignments I just make a list, then pick one, then set my little timer for an hour or twenty minutes or whatever amount of time that specific assignment will cost me. And then, while the timer is ticking away on my desk, I don't let myself do anything else....When the timer goes off, I decide whether I want to keep working on it, or move on. It's a simple tool, but it works." Read more.
Tim Challies asks whether he's ready to address his Google search history with God. "What would I say to him if he were to ask me about the things I have gone looking for online? Could I tell him with confidence that what I have sought is an indication of a heart that is aligned with his purposes? Or would I have to confess that my searches point to a heart that is drawn to what is evil and perverse?" Read the post.

Amen and Amen!!!
Interesting. Hey do you guys think its ok to start your quite times listening to sermons online/itunes? Sometimes I don't know what to read so I listen to the latest sermon from my favorite pastors. I'm more constistent this way, but I'm not sure how good of a habbit this is.
Of course that's ok to do. There's no right or wrong way to have a quiet time. The idea is to spend time with your Lord, and using a current sermon is a good jumping off point. One danger I can think of to that would be getting caught up in listening to the person delivering the message and miss out on actually seeking God or hearing from Him. I would have a tendancy to do that.
