Wildcharger Wireless Charging Pad from Pure Energy Solutions

WildCharge_063_Apple_bundle_200wiI recently got a chance to try out the Wildcharger from Pure Energy Solutions. Of course, it is virtually impossible to review this product without comparing it to the Powermat, which we gave away in a recent contest.

After all, it is the same basic principle. You get a specialized skin for your mobile device, and you put it the plugged in mat, and then forget about it as it charges. What could be better?

Anyway, I have reviewed it, and you can read the full review here.

Irreverent Reverence Day 59: Mistaken for Gods

How many times has this happened to you: you’re out talking about the gospel, and people mistake you for gods. Yeah, honestly, I can’t think of a time when this happened to me.
