But, after watching the video posted by Michael Hyatt today and subsequent discussion of leadership lessons learned from Dr. King, I just had to write down some of the thoughts going through my head.

I’ve had friends that have supported To Write Love on Her Arms for a while, and I just recently began supporting them by buying some gear from them. I encourage you to support them as well. It’s an amazing organization with an amazing story. You can check out the story here. And you can buy [...]

So, why this site? Why the name “Jesus in Disguise”? What does that even mean anyway? I got the idea for the title of this site from Mother Teresa. In an interview she gave, she was quoted as saying:
