How an iPad Improved my Devotional Life
I'm a busy pastor and am committed to developing my walk with Jesus through several spiritual disciplines. One discipline I practice is a daily time with God when I read Scripture, pray, and journal.

How Pastors Can Benefit from an iPad, Part 1
I'm a pastor and I bought an iPad 10 days ago (16 Gig wi-fi version, the cheapest).
If you are a pastor, could an iPad help you become more effective? Maybe. Maybe not.
Although I'm only a little over a week into owning mine, this phrase captures my experience,"It has exceeded all my expectations."
