The Internet Monk, 1956-2010

Michael Spencer, better known throughout the blogging world as the Internet Monk passed away yesterday. I’ve already done a brief write up of Michael but it doesn’t do justice to the impact Michael had on my life (and thousands of others).

I’m not sure I can do that in this post. I have an appointment in 10 minutes, there is tons going on at work, and of course there is the usual distractions of my everyday life. But I couldn’t let this moment pass without saying something.

Michael was part of my Christian Mentor trinity as it were, one of the three great influencers on my life that reshaped my relationship with Jesus, with God, and with humanity in ways I didn’t think possible. I need to say more but this will have to do for today.

I miss him fiercely.

God speed Brother. I will see you again. But not yet.
