So glad that my friend Dr. Daniel Davis has published “Remotely Close.” The book makes a passionate, but research-based case that online education must cultivate meaningful relationships to reach its potential. Access to higher education without without freindship misses the point, as does friendship without access. Congratulations to Dr. David for bringing love and learning together as partners. Check out Remotely Close on Amazon.

What are church goers hearing from the pulpit in this season?

Pastors Often Discussed Election, Pandemic and Racism in Fall of 2020 Among churches that posted their sermons, homilies or worship services online between Aug. 31 and Nov. 8, 2020, two-thirds posted at least one message from the pulpit mentioning the election.
