Title: 1 Year Already!!!
Post by: Tom Johns on December 08, 2022, 03:37:19 PM
I was looking on our web host site and see that on the 10 of December last year, I put in to renew the website, which is when I started rebuilding the station... Wow! A year already!!!

Tom,

Thanks for all you have done and continue to do.  Having a place like this has been more helpful than you will ever know.  Thanks for being there brother.  I'm almost done reading THE LAST ARROW by Erwin McManus and he made a fascinating observation and I quote:  We think that life is either a sprint or a marathon but that in either case we are the only runner who matters.  If life is a race, it is far more like a relay in which we do not win if we do not have a team that will help us get across the finish line.  He goes on to say that when we read Scripture, most often we are focused on what it says about God.  We have been trained to be acutely aware of what we are to believe about God and how we are to relate to him.  Scripture is much more than that as it gives us keen insight into the human journey.  He continues to state that the most common cause of living beneath our God given calling/capacity is that we chose to walk alone rather than walking together.  He closes this section of his book with an African saying:  If you want to go fast, go alone.  If you want to go far, go together.

So I have typed a lot, more than I anticipated.  Erwin also introduces the notion of being a "tribe."  So thanks for getting D2S back up and running and continuing with having a forum so that we can go on this journey together as a tribe.

David

Yes I agree totally. Community in this life means everything. We were created for it.
Thank you Tom, it has been a great year with DTS back.

All I can say is thank you for what you've done! I am so thrilled to not have to be switching from station to station, I just listen to one station all day every day to get all the support I need! Keep up the good work!  E|  E|  <3  <3  8X  8X

So, I was promoted at work a few months ago and the workload has increased considerably. Prior to the promotion, I had slow days so I would do some updates on both the station and the website. I have not had that luxury for a while but things seem to be slowing down a little. I am trying to do some updates in chunks. I have been adding more album info, few at a time, and then hope to get all of the lyrics and song info added. That shouldn't be as hard as I still have it from before. I have a few things I need and want to update. I hope to get some more done. Anyway, thank you all for your continued love and support. You ROCK!!!  <3  E|  8X  E|  <3
