Current ideas, trends, and thoughts to strengthen your ministry—or at least help you put it off for a few more minutes

Several months ago I began receiving Radar magazine for no reason at all. I didn't subscribe, and I'd barely heard of it. However, being a magazine junkie who regularly shuffles unread issues of Martha Stewart Living, Entertainment Weekly, and, yes, Christian Standard from room to room, I was delighted to receive yet another fun periodical in the mail. Apparently I am subscribed until June 2008.

And that's okay because--although it isn't my favorite magazine--I really like the "Radar 100," a list that appears on the last page of each issue. Here are some favorites from the most recent one:
100 self-help books you can do without.

--He's Just Not That Into You: He's Into Your Hotter, Less Whiny Friend 
--Conflict Resolution, the Pol Pot Way 
--101 Half-Truths to Tell Your Mother About the Nursing Home 
--Six Weeks and $80,000 in Elective Surgery to a Better You
--The All Food Court Diet 
--Complaining Your Way Into His Heart 
--Tuesdays with Maury Povich

I'm still laughing out loud - people are staring. My relationship with stodgy old Good Housekeeping is over. I've gotta get Radar!
