I love the things e-mail makes possible. This morning three of the items in my in box were from guys who live more than 2,000 miles away. Because of e-mail I’m able to have a meaningful connection with people who enrich my life. Two of the e-mails were from people I’ve never met in person, but who I consider ministry colleagues. A text prayer sent over the internet is far inferior to looking the person in the eye and saying, “Can I pray for you?” But it is a good second option.
