Q & A – with a twist
i have an idea. i know…remarkable. shocking, perhaps. but true.
lets do a little q & a type thing. with a twist.
i was thinking you all could ask me questions, assuming youd want to, they could be about…
my family
kids
marriage
childhood
ministry
technology
friends
dreams/aspirations
anything you want, really. within reason of course
and…i will answer you in a video response.
but heres the twist
if your question is chosen (by that random picker thingy) i get to ask you the very same question, if applicable, or a different one of my own and you can respond via video or in writing. both responses will be posted here in the same post. what a great way to get to know each other more, eh? i’ll let you know if your Q was chosen so that you can work up your answer too.
come on…admit it…this sounds fun, doesnt it?
doesnt it???
i thought id answer a couple questions a week. at least try to. so, if youre willing, and brave enough, to play along then start asking questions in the comment section. i’ll use this post to draw upon each time i do a response video so eventually most, or all, the q’s will be answered.
make sense?
