early christmas

Who knew getting a homework assignment could be exciting?

I just received my copy of Primal (the book by Mark Batterson) yesterday and I'm pretty pumped. The goal is to have the book read within the next week or so and post my thoughts about what it says. As we all know and love my thoughts, this is pretty exciting for me. I will do my best not to be biased even though he is married to my cousin - but I'm truly hoping this starts a wave of people getting interested in the book and reading it also.

Going to take a bit of focus to get through the book that quickly - I have a lot going on right now since apparently Christmas is only 2 weeks away??? Where did that come from? I remember as a kid I knew it was coming from 5 months away...and now I barely realize it by Christmas Eve. Guess that's just another sign I must accept that I'm getting old (or older?).

If you want to get a preview of what I'm going to be reading, you can check out Mark's blog - he has put up some teasers on a few of the chapters over the last week or so.

If you're like, "Kevin, how can I get a copy of the book to read along with you at the same time right now as you are reading it today or tonight cause I'm so excited I can't contain myself or wait for you to report back" then you can go here to pick up a copy. Looks like they are still offering some discounts for pre-orders.

We all know this is a big step for me to prove I can still read...here goes...
