Fast Food Could soon mean FAST FRUIT by Bruce Horovitz (USA Today)
Posted by Ed and Lois
“I’d like a fruit bowl with my cheeseburger please. Would you like that supersized? ”
Fast food used to be about burgers. Then, salads got hot. Now, something unexpected might be fast food’s next growth engine: fruit.
Fast food is embracing fast fruit.
McDonald’s buys more apples than any other restaurant chain. Wendy’s is testing a fruit bowl entree. Arby’s chops apples into chicken salads.

Blogger Predicts Revival via Web - LeadershipJournal.net
Posted by Mike Boyink
Many Christian bloggers are tired of prepackaged sermon series and discussing best-selling books in our small groups. We blog because we can create spiritual information as well or better than our pastors—especially when we blog as part of a network.
One could view this as rebellion. We are taking control of our spiritual formation and creating networks outside traditional structures. That’s why this revival remains largely unnoticed by pastors.
