CAM Leadership Conference
It was a great honor to speak at the CAM Leadership Conference last month. I was one of 7 keynote speakers and I was blown away by the quality of the messages shared. All of the messages were done in a “TED Talk” model and deliver a lot in just 15 minutes. You can check them all out at the CAM Leadership Channel. Chris Shelton and his team from EventPoint did an amazing job capturing the videos.
The title of my talk was “The Marketplace is Ministry.” The big themes were:
- 98% of Christians will never enter the ministry as a vocation. They will make a living in the marketplace.
- That 98% are in the mission field every day.
- 75% of Americans do not attend church regularly, but most go to work. In marketing terms, that is a 250M person target market.
- 3 Steps to revival in the marketplace.

Health
Prescriptions on the Cheap
My family moved away from traditional insurance this year and signed up for a Christian medical sharing program called Medi-Share. We knew that prescription medications were not covered but thought that was a worthy trade off.
My wife, Jill, has very bad seasonal allergies and is currently nursing our 5-month old. So she is limited in what meds she can take. Historically, she has been able to keep her allergies at bay using Singulair. When we went to refill her prescription we found out that the generic version of Singulair cost $180 – for a month’s supply!
Instead of refilling the prescription we decided to seek out cheaper alternatives. After going back to the pharmacy and telling them we were on Medi-Share the price came down to $70 and we were close to paying that amount – Jill was really suffering.
Then, Jill started googling for cheap prescription meds and found two very cool sites – Blink Health and GoodRx. We went through Blink Health and were able to get generic Singular for $0!! The Blink Health price was $14, but we found a $15 internet coupon to bring the price to $0!
Huge blessing. I think the sites work best on drugs that have generic options, but I’d highly recommend you try both!
Life, Fun, Whatever!
Tom Brady, Jim Carrey & the Search for Meaning
If Tom Brady and Jim Carrey have not found what they are looking for (at their level of success), are they looking in the wrong place? Great clips from Tom and Jim in this 12 minute video. Strong insight into the wisdom of King Solomon.
