So I'm back, for those of you who have been reading, my commitment to blogging as been waning in the last few months. Small church ministry has a way of throwing unexpected little “surprises” at you every now and again. Long story short…I had neither the time and the energy to tippity-tap on my keyboard over the last two months. Such is life.

But now I am back with a healthy dose of vim and vigor as well as a new perspective on blogging. What is that perspective? Well, I used to blog for therapy. You know, exorcise my demons in cyberspace. A kind of private conversation with myself, with only the random, unknown person ever reading what I typed.

But apparently there are quite a few people who read what I write, and want to read more. They actually care about what I say. I had one person tell me that he learns from me on a regular basis. Imagine that…someone learning from me. This is a new experience for me, one that I am trying to handle gracefully. It just blows my mind that I would actually be able to influence the spiritual lives of other people.

That is why I am blogging again, not as much for therapy (though I think I still need a bunch), but for other people. Maybe you will be one of them.

But I doubt it.
