So, I finally gave in and am starting a blog. I have several friends who have blogs, but I do not typically read them. For a while I have avoided what I considered yet another trendy form of expression, but after first succumbing to the practicality of Rainbows, ipods, and Facebook, I now understand the usefulness of blogging. And since a friend told me that blogging is so easy that even I can do it, I finally gave in.
As a pastor, I have a pulpit every week from which to speak, an opportunity most people do not have. However, because the sermons I deliver are (hopefully) guided by more than my simple earthly musings, and because it would not be wise nor appropriate to offer many personal opinions and views in a sermon, a blog allows me to scratch my itch for writing and a platform to express my thoughts on anything from theology to Carolina basketball.
I do not expect many people to read this and am joining the blogging community more for my sake than for anyone else’s – I do not presume what I have to say to be anything profound or life-changing. However, if you do read, I would love for you to comment and join in dialogue – and I will try to do the same for fellow blogger friends. This endeavor will be much more worthwhile if the conversation is multi-sided. So I hope you enjoy, I hope this is worth your time, and I hope you will write back, whether you agree or think I have said the most useless and dumb thing you’ve ever read. I want to hear from you, I really do…
