2 Comments I used to blog on a fairly regular basis over at my blogspot blog, but then I quit blogging for a year or so. I’ve really wanted to pick blogging back up and thought if I’m going to do it, I need a fresh start, so here I am, with a new blog on Wordpress, which has some features that blogger doesn’t have at the moment. So, I’m going to give this a shot.
I’ve been thinking recently about my blog and how it should function. I want my posts to be original and of high quality, which means spending some time thinking through, researching, and editing posts. And I also want to post on a regular basis, more so as a practice of discipline than anything else. I’ve realized I’m a pretty lazy person and need to do some things about that. So, this blog will hopefully be an exercise in discipline.
So, starting this week, I am going to try and post a quality blog post every Friday, usually relating to emerging church, theology, youth ministry, or something exciting like that. I may post random things in between my Friday posts that are not exactly “substantial” posts, but will keep things fresh.
We’ll see how this goes.

But, I decided that it was more important to go play golf with a couple of guys from church and get to know them rather than finish my post and put it on here. It was a theological decision. People are more important than blogs. Never choose blogs over people. [...]
