The Rebelution Twitter Feed
As we move into the holiday season — which is now also the season of end-of-semester papers and final exams — full blog posts are hard to come by.
Thankfully, we’ve found a way to keep you all updated, even when we’re crazy busy or on the go: Twitter! We’ve been tweeting (or is it twittering?) for a few months now — but finally, it’s on the blog! You can see it on the right.
You can read our updates on the Mini-Blog (top of the sidebar) or subscribe through Twitter itself. Either way, we hope you’ll follow along!

Updating twitter and posting it on the blog is a great idea. Keep up the good work, Alex and Brett
God bless you both

As I understand it, Tweeting is the proper term. I’ll add you guys on Twitter, and look forward to the updates.
December 4th, 2008 at 9:22 am
We’ll all enjoying keeping up with you guys with Twitter! Good luck on all you exams! God bless
December 4th, 2008 at 9:39 am
Cool guys… this will be fun!
Thanks Alex and Brett.

Ok, I feel stupid, but what in the world is Twitter?!?!
December 4th, 2008 at 11:11 am
Andie: Dont worry I was about to ask the same question!!
What is Twitter? I have never heard of it?

twitter is where you tweet…
no, it’s a thing where you can update what you’re doing whenever you want. kind of like facebook, but not that sophisticated…it’s just so people can know what you’re doing and when you’re doing it. and to do twitter is to tweet, by the way. when you post on twitter, you’re tweeting, and a twitterer is actually called a tweeter. it’s rather confusing at first, but you get used to it…

My dad was talking to me about twitter the other day, so I actually just got one! And… you’re the first people I’m following. =D

Brett- PHC played bball at the school where my husband is on staff…right outside of DC…on Tuesday night. My daughter and I sat in the stands and watched the game. I want you to know that you had a wonderful testimony on the court. We have some tough kids…from varying backgrounds. They are not always that “Christ like” on the court…something that my husband is working with them on! We came to your “do hard things” conference over the summer, and loved it! It was fun seeing you again at the game…and seeing your awesome testimony! GOOD JOB!!!
And…there are a small group of girls on this campus who are praying for a godly man with a character similar to yours! ( : It is encouraging to them to know someone like that does exist!
Keep clinging!!!
December 4th, 2008 at 3:13 pm
Cool. Though, you should say which one of you is writing the twitter.
December 4th, 2008 at 3:17 pm
Don’t use twitter personally, but it’ll be nice to keep up with you through your blog! And I agree with Emily. Adding your name would be a nice touch.
December 4th, 2008 at 4:15 pm
glad to know there are some out there who dont know what twitter is too. i guess i am a bit late to ask the question first, but thanks to Hayden for spelling that out!
yay! at least you keep us informed while you are busy. Thank you for your blog Alex and Brett!

Love the Twitter feed guys! One of the brightest ideas you’ve had, right up there with starting this blog, writing a book, and doing a conference tour.
But really, it’s nice to hear from you two more often so we know you haven’t died or anything. 
December 4th, 2008 at 4:47 pm
We would sign our names, except we’re already limited to just 140 characters. As a hint, though, it’s usually Alex posting the tweets.
December 4th, 2008 at 6:23 pm
Just signed up for Twitter, great idea guys! I’d never heard of it before, but it seems to be a great tool. Nice to be able to keep up with you guys!

So, Brett’s not much of a tweeter, aye?
We’re really glad you guys had a good Thanksgiving and hope your exams go well.
God bless!

Have fun at the Whitehouse!
Praying,

Hey, I’d love to “follow” some of you other Rebelutionaries on Twitter if anyone would be willing to give the name they use. I’m able to access the list of people following Alex and Brett but I’d like to get to know more about some of the names that have become familiar to me on here. ?:)?

Hey, I just wanted to thank Alex and Brett for writing Do Hard Things. I’ve nearly finished it now and it has been amazing. Thanks so much for opening my eyes!!
God Bless You in Every Way,
Tiffany

coolness
I’m new to this twitter thingy as well. (although I love the sound of the name…twitter
) do I have to sign up to read what you’re posting, and what does following mean?
December 5th, 2008 at 11:36 am
Okay, I know this is going to sound very stupid but I’ve read all the comments and I still don’t understand what Twitter is! Hayden said it was like a facebook but I don’t use that either so……. Help?
God bless!

I’m glad you guys have a chance to reach more people…but what is twitter? I’ve heard of it, but am not really clear on what it is.
December 5th, 2008 at 3:39 pm
For those of you who are wondering, here is a great video explanation of what Twitter is: http://commoncraft.com/twitter
December 5th, 2008 at 4:17 pm
Thanks for doing this guys, it will be interesting to follow! It sounds like you had excellent company at the white house.
December 5th, 2008 at 7:07 pm
Cool!
December 5th, 2008 at 9:36 pm
hey you guys, thank you so much for the book that you made. I love it… it my devotional book actually. i read that every night and then i read John. My parents passed away a few years back and my 2 brothers are in drugs and cigarettes. to be 100% honest… i am just 14 years old. August, 31 1994. This book has made any frown on my head disappear, the God Almighty look at my heart and is pleased, and my “family” has definitely seen more wisdom in what i do. I go to a Christian school, but that doesn’t cut it for me. My school goes out into the community to serve every Wednesday and after reading your book like 18 times, it feels like, i feel more equipped. “All scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. That the man of God may be complete;thoroughly equipped for every good work!!!!!(2 Timothy 3:16-17)
December 6th, 2008 at 9:43 am
This is a great idea! It’ll be neat to have more common updates about what you guys are up to.
Thanks Alex and Brett!
December 6th, 2008 at 2:11 pm
This is a “tweet” idea!
December 6th, 2008 at 5:12 pm
OOhh!! Now I know about twitter!
Sounds fun!
December 7th, 2008 at 8:57 am
This is great! It makes us feel as though we’re right with you. Good luck with your exams!
God bless you!
Hope
December 7th, 2008 at 11:18 am
I get it sent to my email.
December 7th, 2008 at 10:39 pm
Ooh, its now officially on the blog!
I’ve been following you guys for a while now.

December 8th, 2008 at 6:41 am
Neat idea–and thanks for putting the latest Tweeterings (twitterings, whatever!) on your blog, since I don’t have Twitter. (I don’t have Facebook either–I’m just that type of person.
)

December 8th, 2008 at 10:41 am
Alex and Brett, blessings on your papers and finals as you seek to accomplish everything for the glory of God.
December 8th, 2008 at 4:34 pm
Hannah Y., you are not alone. I don’t have facebook, either. Thanks for putting it on the blog, guys.
December 9th, 2008 at 5:02 pm
i read an article about twitter in world mag, i have one and it’s so easy to use, i love facebook too, though!
December 10th, 2008 at 3:23 am
Hey, that’s cool! It’s cool to know the other things you guys are doing
December 10th, 2008 at 11:25 am
Hey guys,
It’s fantastic that we can actually keep up with what you do!
Hope everything goes well with y’ all this busy season!
Praying,

Hey Alex
Couldn’t you just sign it at the end A. or B. so that we know who it is?
~ Felicity
December 16th, 2008 at 12:50 pm
I’m following your twitter.
PS: I agree with Felicity - that would be helpful.

What are your (Alex, Brett and Everyone) opinions on facebook? I’m a pastor’s daughter and I think that it might be a stumbling block for some people if I do get one because I’m supposed to be “all that” and the “pastor’s daughter” and I’m an example for other teens. Yet, I really want one to communicate with my friends and family… what d’ya think?
January 4th, 2009 at 8:39 am
Kaylee, I don’t think that it will be a stubling block for the people/parents in your church… as long as you don’t post inappropiate things on facebook. And just because your a pastors daughter doesn’t mean that people are schrutinizing you more than anyother teen in your church; yet, I know what you mean about having to be an “example” ’cause you are the pastors daughter. But don’t feel like your missing out on something “cool” by not having one… Its NOT as cool as it is made out to be and could be trouble if you start placing facebook as your idol. So don’t rush to get one just because you don’t want to be left out of the loop…. but if you want one to keep intouch with people and your parents are fine with you having one then get one because its not a sin unless you are doing un godly things on it or it you are placing it before GOD…. I HOPE this helps.
