On November 15, 2008, I'm shutting this puppy down. My goal in having a blog was to collect my thinking about being in the Christian faith (which is constantly on my mind) and present that to an audience. At times, I thought about influencing an audience, but I am not devastated that this didn't occur. Thinking you are writing to someone makes you care more about how you communicate. I have made mistakes in grammar along the way, have jumbled thought by misplacing or omitting a word, and I've let it stand. Let everyone be equally confused.
I have future plans for some refined version of the blog, but you have been the very motivation for me to attempt to plow through some pretty difficult stuff. I have never stopped being what I believe I am (a Christian), but I have communicated things that would make some doubt the authenticity of my faith.
Ironically, the obvious stuff is the easiest stuff. Homosexuality, the "O" word, drinking, smoking, dancing, cards, movies, dress, piercings, tattoos, grooming, purity, celibacy, and any other lifestyle issue is easier than the process of disengaging from the dysfunction of the American Church and finding an Identity as Christians in this world, and these are the things I'll be writing about between now and when I put a wrap on this blog.
