Compassion 365 Interview Today with Brad Ruggles

Brad Ruggles ImageYesterday I had the opportunity to interview Brad Ruggles for the Compassion 365 podcast I do on Wednesday’s. I had first met Brad online when I was covering the 40 Day Fast a couple of years ago.

When I first started reading and getting into the blogging thing, Brad’s blog was among the first I started reading. His posts cover a wide variety of topics including the Church, Family, and Authenticity. Brad was recently on a Compassion Blogger’s trip to Kenya and he shared some amazing stories from his trip.

So could you do me a favor? Actually 2 favors. First, go HERE and listen to today’s podcast interview with Brad, and while you’re listening, go on over to Brad’s blog and you can see why I like his blog so much, you can even read the series of posts about the Kenya trip. While you’re there, leave him a comment saying you heard him on Cross Driven Radio and Compassion 365.

Monday Weigh In: Week 3

I started this post over on the other blog and I am going to continue it here.  I am on a mission this year to average losing 1-2 pounds per week until I get to my target.

Total for week 3: 2 lbs   Total to date: 13 lbs

I didn’t really do much different this week.  I think the biggest thing so far is that I have cut down on sodas.  I admit it, I’m a coke addict. Thats right, I  am addicted to the carbonated sweetness of coca cola.  I was at the point of having multiple cokes a day, sometimes as many as 4 or 5.  I have cut them down to 1 and some days none.  That is my eventual goal, totally soda free!  I have substituted soda with Gatorade G2 and water.    I am also doing the Jillian Michaels fitness game on the Wii.  I’ll tell you, that game is a pretty good workout

Time to get Back To Business

I posted a couple of weeks ago about new changes with the blog. I had the idea about separating my personal blog from the site. It turned out to not be such a great idea. The problem was that I was feeling overwhelmed about what to put on each site, and I ended up not posting anything at all, which is not good since I have put 3 years into building this site.

So, starting today it is back to business as usual. The other website is going to redirect here, so if you were subscribed to charleyhays.com, welcome to Cross Driven Radio, the site that started it all.

I am still working on my second site, so you will see an announcement here NEXT Friday, for sure!

New Season – New Design

images-4It seems that as seasons change, so does the design here at Cross Driven Radio. I believe that part of being a creative type of person is that you are never really satisfied with a project. You can always do it better. What if I tried this… or that.. what if I …..?

As you may have noticed, I did make some changes to the color scheme going with a Brown/Yellow color scheme and also will be adding some drop down navigation. I also added an easier way to get to the podcasts. The one problem with the old design was that podcasts, especially previous episodes were hard to locate from the site, that has all changed now with the podcasts being accessible from the navigation menu.

There is still some work to do, like get the header image above the navigation menu and a couple of other minor tweaks I have in mind.
