Embarrassed at How Much Time You Spend Online?

Embarrassed at How Much Time You Spend Online?

Word of advice.

Before you go off on elder ministers, lecturing them endlessly about what they should and should not do, should and should not say and should and should not post and preach.....


Hows about logging off and doing some ministry of your own?

I know it's a novel idea, and some of you are revolted at the very thought of it, but I still think it's a good suggestion.

Symptoms of Internet Addiction

1. Using online services everyday without any skipping.

2. Losing track of time after making a connection.

3. Going out less and less.

4. Spending less and less time on meals at home or at work, and eating in front of the monitor.

5. Denying spending too much time on the Net.

6. Others complaining of your spending too much time in front of the monitor.

7. Checking on your mailbox too many times a day.

8. Thinking you have the greatest website in the world and dying to give people your URL.

9. Logging onto the Net while already busy at work.

10. Sneaking online when spouse or family members are not at home, with a sense of relief.

So after I log off and do some ministry can I then go off on you?

Oh brother... you got me pegged... especially "at work..." But then again, this is pretty much what I do at work only I argue about different types of things with my online "buddies" from various telecoms and vendors.

I spend a lot of time online, but I take the occasional break to watch some TV or enjoy a smoke.....
