Welcome to Your Weekly Inspiration

Mondays with Mark started as a labor of love to inspire intentional thought, acts of kindness, and self-reflection. Years ago, Mark Hutchinson, the creator of Mondays with Mark, received a weekly email called Wednesdays with Willie. Willie (Bill) had a heart of love and shared words of wisdom with his email list, and Mark would faithfully forward it on to our teams at WEO Media and Visionsite each week. After Willie passed away a year ago, Mark took up the torch for all of us at WEO Media and began his own words of wisdom to share.

After a few months of sharing his inspirational thoughts, Mark began a new list called Wonder of Wednesdays - to find sparks of joy and wonder in the world around us.

We invite you to share in the weekly inspiration: come here and read the weekly blogs and encouragements, or sign up to receive your updates by email.
