Living Leviticus and Facebook

I very much enjoyed this article in the latest Christianity Today for several reasons. One, it's just an interesting idea - living out the book of Leviticus for 30 days.

Two, I liked the inspiration behind it, that more is learned by doing than by passive listening. Plus, I get a kick out of the fact that it's inspired by A.J. Jacobs' latest book. Since I'm a Jacobs fan. Not as much as Henry, and not enough to buy it hardcover, but still a fan.

Three, I love how they used a Facebook group vitally for its duration and afterwards. Even since before I joined, it's been my hope that Facebook can be used as a ministry tool. It's definitely influenced what I've chosen to work on here. So it's personally gratifying and encouraging to read in CT how it was used for that. Plus I probably fixed some of their bugs and they didn't even know it.

It's a great feeling when something you work on is used by a lot of people. And it's a greater feeling when something you work on is used for good.
