The New Plan!

So here is the new plan for this blog.  As you have noticed I stopped posting a couple months ago due to a ministry project that was taking my morning time and this has since left and returned in a couple variations but this time off has given me opportunity to evaluate my heart and what I was doing with the blog.  Here are my thoughts below...

Positives-
  • Blog is valuable ministry tool for communication and encouragement of the saints
  • Blog is valuable tool for making other resources easily available to folks in my men's group and such
  • Blog is encouragement to those who want to see that Jeff is still fired up if that gives them hope of sustained joy or zeal as well
Negatives-
  • Blog is a strain on my morning time and can be a distraction from God
  • Blog is a source of spiritual pride or frustration as I am more or less successful in posting something "worthwhile"
  • Blog too easily becomes my goal each morning rather than connecting with God
Conclusion-

I have decided that I will post once a week, probably on the weekend, to summarize what God is hitting me with through personal study, fellowship, looking at other resources, etc.  The posts will not really be an effort at expository reflection or anything fancy but rather sort of a weekly wrap-up that might include links to favorite blog posts or sermons or other messages or books or whatever.  

So there it is...once a week.  Let's go with that and see what happens.  

Soli Deo Gloria!
