WordPoints Report

For this month’s report, I just want to give you a copy of a post that I made on Facebook this past Tuesday, on my 73rd birthday. Some of you will have already seen this. I just wanted to make sure that you got a copy of the “birthday” post.

It takes discipline to read something every day, and I can’t tell you how much it means to me at the personal level to have so many readers who read the pages from these daybooks every day for a whole year — and then, amazingly, start over again the next year.

I want to share with you some exciting news: after several years of thinking about it, asking some wise people for their counsel, and praying about it nearly every day, I am going to attempt to move the base of my operations to Meridian, Mississippi.

Last month, I gave you an overview of the “chunks” of time that go into a typical workday for me. This month, I want zoom in a little closer on one of those daily chunks: the writing of a page in one of the books in the WordPoints Daybook Series.

In this report, I want to do something unusual: I want to describe what happens in a “typical” day for me. Each is a different mix of the activities I’m going to describe. But maybe it’ll give you an idea of what my days consist of.

I believe people are being influenced by the work you are making it possible for me to do, and the fact that you also have that confidence is a great comfort to me, especially on the weary days when the “finish line” seems a terribly long way off.

I haven’t mentioned it lately, but I continue to send out the “Daily Family Bible Studies” each week. Of all the email lists that people can sign up for on WordPoints.com, this is the largest. At present, there are 1,521 people who get these studies.
